It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir. He says that we were with the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, when during that time he, peace and blessings be upon him, asked for water. So a man said, "Shall we not give you nabidh to drink?" He, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Why not?" The narrator says, so that man ran off and then returned with a bowl in which there was nabidh. Then the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Why did you not cover it, even if you had placed a stick across it?"

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both). He says that the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) came to the Siqayah (the place where water was given to the pilgrims) and he (peace be upon him) said: "Give me water from this." Hazrat Abbas said: Should we not give you from the drink that we prepare at home? He (peace be upon him) said: "No, rather give me from that which the common people drink." The narrator says: Then a bowl of nabidh was brought to him (peace be upon him) and he tasted it! Then he (peace be upon him) mixed something in it and then said: "Bring water." So he (peace be upon him) poured that water into the nabidh and then said: "Add more to it." He said this two or three times. Then after that he (peace be upon him) said: "When you find this, then do the same with it."

It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both), he says: We were sitting in the presence of the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) when a bowl was brought to him containing some beverage. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) brought the bowl close to himself and then returned it. Upon this, some of those sitting with him asked: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Is this forbidden? The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Bring that bowl back." So the companions returned the bowl. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked for water, and he poured that water into the bowl and then drank it, and said: "Look at these beverages. When they exceed the limit upon you (i.e., become intoxicating), then break their intensity with water."

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Masood that the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) was performing Tawaf around the Ka'bah, when during this he felt thirsty and requested water. So, Nabidh was brought for him from the Saqayah. He smelled it, then mixed it, and said: "Bring me a bucket of Zamzam." Thus, he mixed the Zamzam in it and drank it. Upon this, a man asked, "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Is this forbidden?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: "No."

It is narrated from Hazrat Jabir that he said: Nabidh used to be prepared for the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) in a waterskin. And when there was no waterskin, Nabidh used to be prepared for him in a drinking vessel. Ash'ath says: Taur is made from the bark of a tree.

25430 - (He said) (1) Al-Ash'ath: And the "tawr" is from the bark of the tree.

It is narrated from Hazrat Zadhan, he says: I asked Hazrat Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) about Nabidh. And I said to him: Our language is different from your language, so please explain it to us in our tongue. Upon this, Hazrat Umar said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (the use of) Hantamah, and it is a kind of jar. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (the use of) Dubba’, and it is a (man-made) vessel of gourd. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (the use of) Muzaffat, and it is a vessel coated with pitch. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade (the use of) Naqir, and it is a vessel made from the thick branch of a tree. And he (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded that Nabidh be prepared in water skins.

It is narrated from Hazrat Amina that she heard Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) say: "Is any one of you incapable of making a waterskin from the hide of her sacrificial animal every year? Because the Noble Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade nabidh (fermented drink) in earthen pots and pitch-covered vessels." Some other things were also mentioned, which (Amina's student) Taimi forgot.

Hazrat Simak narrates about a man who asked Hazrat Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) about nabidh (a drink). He replied: Drink it, but when you fear that you may become intoxicated, then leave it.

It is narrated from Ibn Awn. He says: I asked Muhammad about the nabidh (date-infused drink) in a waterskin that has been tied and hung up? So Muhammad said: I do not see any harm in it.
