رَجُلٍ تَرَكَ غُلَاماً لَهُ فِي كَرْمٍ لَهُ يَبِيعُهُ عِنَباً أَوْ عَصِيراً فَانْطَلَقَ الْغُلَامُ فَعَصَرَ خَمْراً ثُمَّ بَاعَهُ قَالَ لَا يَصْلُحُ ثَمَنُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ أَهْدَى إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) رَاوِيَتَيْنِ مِنْ خَمْرٍ فَأَمَرَ بِهِمَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فَأُهَرِيقَتَا وَ قَالَ إِنَّ الَّذِي حَرَّمَ شُرْبَهَا حَرَّمَ ثَمَنَهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنَّ أَفْضَلَ خِصَالِ هَذِهِ الَّتِي بَاعَهَا الْغُلَامُ أَنْ يُتَصَدَّقَ بِثَمَنِهَا .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Hareyz, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> regarding a man who left a slave of his in a vineyard of his for selling grapes or juice. So the slave went and made wine, then sold it. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is not correct (to take) its price’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘A man from Saqeef gifted to Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> two caskets of wine. So Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> ordered with both of them to be destroyed, and said: ‘The drinking of which is Prohibited, its price is Prohibited’. The most preferable action for this which the slave had sold is for him, to give it in charity equivlant to its price’.
