It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: On the night of Mi'raj, two vessels were brought to me, one containing milk and the other containing wine. I was told to choose whichever I wished. I chose the milk. Hazrat Jibreel (peace be upon him) said to me: Praise be to Allah, who guided you to the right nature. If you had chosen the wine, your Ummah would have gone astray.
