It is narrated from Wa'il that Sayyiduna Suwaid bin Tariq (may Allah be pleased with him) asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) about making wine. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade him from making wine. Sayyiduna Suwaid (may Allah be pleased with him) said, "It is a medicine." The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "It is not a medicine, rather it is a disease."
