وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ، ثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ الْحَمِيدِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ شَهْرِ بْنِ حَوْشَبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ غَنْمٍ، عَنْ تَمِيمٍ الدَّارِيِّ ؓ:
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُهْدِي لِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كُلَّ عَامٍ رَاوِيَةَ خَمْرٍ، فَلَمَّا أَنْزَلَ اللهُ تَعَالَى تَحْرِيمَ الْخَمْرِ جَاءَ بِهَا، فَلَمَّا رَآهَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ضَحِكَ، وَقَالَ: إِنَّهَا قَدْ حُرِّمَتْ بَعْدَكَ ! فَقَالَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، فَأَبِيعُهَا وَأَنْتَفِعُ بِثَمَنِهَا ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ: لَعَنَ اللهُ الْيَهُودَ ; حَرَّمَ عَلَيْهِمْ شُحُومَ الْبَقَرِ وَالْغَنَمِ، فَأَذَابُوهُ وَبَاعُوهُ. فَإِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى قَدْ حَرَّمَ الْخَمْرَ وَثَمَنَهَا

✧ He used to gift the Messenger of God ﷺ a skin of wine every year. When God Almighty sent down the prohibition of wine, he came with it. When the Messenger of God ﷺ saw it, he laughed and said: 'It has been forbidden after you!' He said: 'O Messenger of God, shall I sell it and benefit from its price?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'May God curse the Jews; He forbade them the fat of cattle and sheep, so they melted it and sold it. Indeed God Almighty has forbidden wine and its price.'
