حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ رِشْدِينَ قَالَ: نَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ قَالَ: أَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ قَالَ: نَا دَاوُدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ. عَنْ أَبِيهِ
أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقَ، وَعُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ، وَنَاسًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، جَلَسُوا بَعْدَ وَفَاةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ، فَذَكَرُوا أَعْظَمَ الْكَبَائِرِ، فَلَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُمْ فِيهَا عِلْمٌ، فَأَرْسَلُونِي إِلَى عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ أَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ، فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ أَعْظَمَ الْكَبَائِرِ شُرْبَ الْخَمْرِ، فَأَتَيْتُهُمْ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُمْ، فَأَنْكَرُوا ذَلِكَ وَوَثَبُوا إِلَيْهِ جَمِيعًا. فَأَخْبَرَهُمْ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ: " إِنَّ مَلِكًا مِنْ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَخَذَ رَجُلًا فَخَيَّرَهُ بَيْنَ أَنْ يَشْرَبَ الْخَمْرَ، أَوْ يَقْتُلَ صَبِيًّا، أَوْ يَزْنِيَ، أَوْ يَأْكُلَ لَحْمَ الْخِنْزِيرِ، أَوْ يَقْتُلُوهُ إِنْ أَبَى. فَاخْتَارَ أَنَّهُ يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ، وَأَنَّهُ لَمَّا شَرِبَ، لَمْ يَمْتَنِعْ مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَرَادُوهُ مِنْهُ ". وَأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَنَا حِينَئِذٍ: مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَشْرَبُهَا فَتُقْبَلُ لَهُ صَلَاةٌ أَرْبَعِينَ لَيْلَةً، وَلَا يَمُوتُ وَفِي مَثَانَتِهِ مِنْهَا شَيْءٌ إِلَّا حُرِّمَتْ عَلَيْهِ الْجَنَّةُ، وَإِنْ مَاتَ فِي الْأَرْبَعِينَ مَاتَ مِيتَةً جَاهِلِيَّةً

✧ Abu Bakr al-Siddiq, Umar b. al-Khattab, and some of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat together after the death of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and discussed the greatest of major sins, but they had no knowledge about it. So they sent me to Abdullah b. Amr b. al-As to ask him about that. He informed me that the greatest of major sins is drinking wine. I came back and told them, but they rejected that and all of them went to him. He told them that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'A king of the Children of Israel seized a man and gave him the choice of drinking wine, killing a child, committing adultery, eating pork, or being killed if he refused. He chose to drink wine, and when he drank it, he did not refrain from anything they wanted from him.' And the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to us at that time: 'No one drinks it but that his prayer is not accepted for forty nights, and he will not die with any of it in his bladder except that Paradise is forbidden to him. And if he dies within the forty days, he dies a death of Jahiliyyah.'
