Thulathiyyat (Musnad Ahmad) 123
Musnad of Abū Ḥamzah Anas ibn Mālik al-Anṣārī, the Servant of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) ﷺ
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: «كُنْتُ قَائِمًا عَلَى الْحَيِّ أَسْقِيهِمْ مِنْ فَضِيخِ تَمْرٍ، فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَقَالَ: إِنَّ الْخَمْرَ قَدْ حُرِّمَتْ». قَالُوا: أَكْفِئْهَا يَا أَنَسُ. فَأَكْفَأْتُهَا. قُلْتُ: مَا كَانَ شَرَابُهُمْ؟ قَالَ: «الْبُسْرُ وَالرُّطَبُ». وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَنَسٍ: «كَانَتْ خَمْرَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ». وَأَنَسٌ يَسْمَعُ فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْهُ. وَقَالَ بَعْضُ مَنْ كَانَ مَعَنَا: قَالَ أَنَسٌ: «كَانَتْ خَمْرَهُمْ يَوْمَئِذٍ».
Translation
Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: I was standing among the clan serving them faḍīkh — a drink made of dates — when a man came and said: “Intoxicating drinks have been prohibited.” They said: “Pour it away, Anas!” So I poured it away. [Ḥumayd] said: I asked [Anas]: “What was their drink made of?” He replied: “Unripe and ripe dates mixed.” Abū Bakr, the son of Anas, said: “That was their intoxicating drink at the time” — and Anas was listening and did not deny it. Some of those present with us said: Anas said: “That was their intoxicating drink at that time.” Reference: Musnad Aḥmad 123
