It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mughaffal Muzani, may Allah be pleased with him, who says: When the Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade the use of nabidh (fermented drink) in pitchers, I was present with him at that time, and when he permitted it, I was also present. And the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: However, avoid anything that is intoxicating.
