Bayhaqi 17442 — Reports on diluting with water

أَخْبَرَنَا بِذَلِكَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ السُّلَمِيُّ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الدَّارَقُطْنِيِّ، وَرَوَاهُ جَرِيرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، فِي قِصَّةِ طَوَافِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَدُعَائِهِ بِشَرَابٍ، قَالَ: فَأُتِيَ بِشَرَابٍ فَشَرِبَ مِنْهُ، ثُمَّ دَعَا بِالْمَاءِ فَصَبَّهُ فِيهِ فَشَرِبَ، ثُمَّ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ فَدَعَا بِمَاءٍ فَصَبَّهُ فِيهِ، ثُمَّ شَرِبَ مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةً، ثُمَّ قَالَ: " إِذَا اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْكُمْ فَاقْتُلُوهُ بِالْمَاءِ " وَيَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ ضَعِيفٌ، لَا يُحْتَجُّ بِهِ لِسُوءِ حِفْظِهِ وَقَدْ رَوَى خَالِدٌ الْحَذَّاءُ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قِصَّةَ طَوَافِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَشُرْبِهِ، لَمْ يَذْكُرْ فِيهَا مَا ذَكَرَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، وَإِنَّمَا تُعْرَفُ هَذِهِ الزِّيَادَةُ مِنْ رِوَايَةِ الْكَلْبِيِّ كَمَا مَضَى، ⦗٥٢٩⦘ وَزَادَ يَزِيدُ: شَرِبَهُ مِنْهُ قَبْلَ خَلْطِهِ بِالْمَاءِ، وَهُوَ بِخِلَافِ سَائِرِ الرِّوَايَاتِ، وَكَيْفَ يُظَنُّ بِالنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يَشْرَبَ الْمُسْكِرَ إِنْ كَانَ مُسْكِرًا عَلَى زَعْمِهِمْ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَخْلِطَهُ بِالْمَاءِ؟ فَدَلَّ عَلَى أَنَّهُ لَا أَصْلَ لَهُ، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) mentions the story of the tawaf of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and after mentioning the drink he (peace and blessings be upon him) called for, he says: A drink was brought and he (peace and blessings be upon him) drank from it; then he called for water, poured it into it and drank; then it was strong for him, so he called for water and poured it into it, then drank, twice or three times. Then he said: "When it becomes strong for you, kill (its strength) with water."
Yazid bin Abi Ziyad is da'if (weak); he is not used as proof because of his poor memory. Khalid al-Hadhdha narrated the story of the tawaf of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and his drinking from Ikrimah, from Ibn Abbas, without mentioning what Yazid mentioned; this addition is known only from the narration of al-Kalbi, as has passed. Yazid also added that he drank from it before mixing it with water, which contradicts all the other narrations. How could it be thought of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he would drink an intoxicant, if it was intoxicating as they claim, before mixing it with water? This shows that it has no basis, and Allah knows best.
