حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُنِيرُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عُبَادَةَ بْنَ نُسَىٍّ يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ خَبَّابَ بْنَ الأَرَتِّ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَنَّهُ قَالَ
إِيَّاكَ وَالْخَمْرَ فَإِنَّ خَطِيئَتَهَا تَفْرَعُ الْخَطَايَا كَمَا أَنَّ شَجَرَتَهَا تَفْرَعُ الشَّجَرَ
