سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا يَقُولُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَا تَقُولُ فِي النَّبِيذِ فَإِنَّ أَبَا مَرْيَمَ يَشْرَبُهُ وَ يَزْعُمُ أَنَّكَ أَمَرْتَ بِشُرْبِهِ فَقَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنْ أَكُونَ آمُرُ بِشُرْبِ مُسْكِرٍ وَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لَشَيْ‏ءٌ مَا اتَّقَيْتُ فِيهِ سُلْطَاناً وَ لَا غَيْرَهُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) كُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ فَمَا أَسْكَرَ كَثِيرُهُ فَقَلِيلُهُ حَرَامٌ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Hanan who said, ‘I heard a man saying to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘What are you<sup>asws</sup> saying regarding <span class="iTxt">Al-Nabeez</span>, for Abu Maryam is drinking it, and he claims that you<sup>asws</sup> have ordered with the drinking of it’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘I seek Refuge with Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic that I<sup>asws</sup> would be ordering with the drinking of an intoxicant. By Allah<sup>azwj</sup>! It is for something what I<sup>asws</sup> fear the authorities with regards to it, and not something else. Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘Every intoxicant is Prohibited, therefore whatever a lot of it were to intoxicate, so a little of it is Prohibited’.
