Al-Kafi 12265

Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Abdul Rahman Bin Al Hajjaj who said, ‘I sought permission for one of our companions to Abu Abdullah^asws, so he asked him^asws about <span class="iTxt">Al Nabeez</span>, so he^asws said: ‘Permissible’. So he said, ‘May Allah^azwj Keep you^asws well! But rather I ask you^asws about <span class="iTxt">Al-Nabeez</span> in which the residue is made to be, so it boils until it intoxicates’. So he^asws said: ‘So Abu Abdullah^asws said: ‘Rasool-Allah^saww said: ‘Every intoxicant is prohibited’. So the man said, ‘May Allah^azwj keep you^asws well! So there are ones with us at Al-Iraq who are saying that Rasool-Allah^saww, rather meant by that the cup which intoxicates’. So Abu Abdullah^asws said: ‘Whatever a lot of it were to intoxicate, so a little of it is Prohibited’. So the man said to himasws, ‘Supposing most of it is the water?’ So Abu Abdullah^asws said: ‘No, and it is not for the water that is should make Permissible (that which is) Prohibited. Fear Allah^azwj Mighty and Majestic and do not drink it’.
