The article first brings up hadiths trying to prove Muhammad drank wine:<\/span>They said:
\n\u201cSahih Muslim: \u201cDrinks, Drinking wine and fermentation\u201d
\nNarrated by Gaber bin Abdullah:
\nWe were with the messenger of Allah, PBUH<\/acronym> and he asked for a drink. One of his men said: \u201cOh Messenger of Allah, Can we offer you wine to drink?\u201d He said Yes. He (Gaber) went out looking for the drink and came back with a cup of wine. The messenger (Peace Be Upon him) asked, \u201cHave you covered it with a twig in a transverse manner\u201d He (Gaber) said, \u201cYes\u201d and he (Muhammad) drank. Sahih Muslim \u2013 Hadith #3753
\n<\/p>\n

Ibn \u2018Abbas reported that Nabidh was prepared for Allah\u2019s Messenger (may peace be upon him) in the waterskin, Shu\u2019ba said: It was the night of Monday. He drank it on Monday and on Tuesday up to the afternoon, and If anything was left out of it he gave it to his servant or poured it out. Sahih Muslim 23:4972.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nThe title of the title the critic has given is an inaccurate translation. An accurate one is:
\n\u201cCOMMAND PERTAINING TO THE COVERING OF VESSELS, AND TIGHTENING (THE MOUTHS) OF WATERSKINS, ETC.\u201d (Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

It should be borne in mind that the Prophet didn\u2019t drink it when it was fermented. He drank it when it was unfermented. A scholar writing on a related hadith:
\n\u0639\u0635\u064a\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u0639\u0646\u0628 \u0627\u0644\u0630\u064a \u0644\u0645 \u064a\u0635\u0644 \u0625\u0644\u0649 \u062d\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0625\u0633\u0643\u0627\u0631<\/b>
\n\u201cGrape juice, which had not reached the level of causing intoxication<\/b>.\u201d (Sheikh Abdul \u2018Azeez Bin Abdullah Al-Raajhi \u2013 Commentary Of Sahih Muslim \u2013Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cThis gives us an idea of the utmost care which the Holy Prophet (may peace be upon him) observed in the use of Nabidh<\/b>. He continued using it until there appeared signs of fermentation in it<\/b>. He discarded its use much before the time when there could be any possibility of any change in its smell and taste. He, therefore, used it only for two days and a half and in case it had no smell or colour of fermentation in it, he gave it to the servant to drink.\u201d (Commentary Of: Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4971<\/a> \u2013 Abdul Hamid Siddiqi\u2019s Commentary \u2013 Dar Al Arabia \u2013 Volume 3 \u2013 Chapter DCCCXXXVIII \u2013 Footnote 2418 \u2013 Page 1110<\/b>).<\/p>\n

He also prepared the drink in waterskins, to slow down the process of fermentation:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Holy Prophet (may peace up upon him) had been particular about it. He preferred to get his Nabidh prepared in the waterskin, as due to coolness, it takes a longer time to turn intoxicant<\/b>.\u201d (Commentary Of: Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4972<\/a> \u2013 cited in: Ibid \u2013 Footnote 2419 \u2013 Page 1110<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4943:<\/a>
\n\u201c\u2018Uqba b. Huraith said: I heard Ibn \u2018Umar saying: The Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) forbade (the preparation of Nabidh) in a green pitcher (besmeared with pitch), in varnished jar, and in gourd, and he said: Prepare Nabidh in small waterskins<\/b>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe process of fermentation is very slow in waterskin<\/b> as compared with varnished vessels, gourd, pumpkin or hollow stump.\u201d (Ibid \u2013 Chapter DCCCXXXVI \u2013 Footnote 2410 \u2013 Page 1105<\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cThe lower the temperature the slower the process<\/b>. At a high temperature the alcoholic rapidly passes into the acetous fermentation.\u201d (William Thomas Brande & Alfred Swaine Taylor \u2013 Chemistry \u2013 Henry C. Lea, 1867 \u2013 Page 576<\/b>).
\n\"qrgj7k\"
\n(Emile Peynaud \u2013 Knowing And Making Wine \u2013 Wiley-IEEE, 1984 \u2013 Page 110<\/b>).<\/p>\n

At 35 degrees, the first 24 hours give 6% alcohol strength. At 10 degrees, the first 24 hours give roughly 2.025% alcohol strength. This is calculated using the formula: 16.2 \/ 8 = 2.025%. So we see here that the speed of fermentation is very slow at lower temperatures, and waterskins help give & retain cool temperatures. So, the wisdom of preparing Nabidh in waterskins is that it takes less time to become alcohol.<\/p>\n

Since it wasn\u2019t even fermented into the state of wine, he never drank wine. Science has established that the negative effects we get from alcohol & wine don\u2019t exist, if the liquid isn\u2019t fermented. The Arabic \u201cnabiz\u201d could mean both fermented and unfermented drink. What this critic has done is translated it as wine, but ignored other narrations which indicate it would be referring to other drinks.
\nSahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4990:<\/a>
\n\u201cJabir reported that a person who was known as Abu Humaid brought for him (the Holy Prophet) a cup of milk<\/b> from al-Naqi\u2019. Allah\u2019s Messenger (may peace be upon him) said to him: Why did you not cover it even with a wood across it?\u201d
\nFurthermore, Abu Humaid (the eyewitness) himself narrated a hadith in Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4987<\/a> where it mentions milk. Notice this is referring to the same story. So this is one piece of evidence the Arabic word doesn\u2019t specifically mean wine. Also:<\/p>\n

Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4952:<\/a>
\n\u201c\u2018Abdullah b. Buraida, on the authority of his father, reported Allah\u2019s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: I had forbidden you from the preparation of Nabidh except in a waterskin. But now you may drink in all vessels, but do not drink what is intoxicant<\/b>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Notice how this narration distinguishes intoxicants with Nabidh, which indicates the Arabic word doesn\u2019t specifically refer to fermented drinks. Moreover, Muhsin Khan in Bukhari translates it in the following narration as:
\nSahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 59, Number 654:<\/a>
\n\u201cI said to Ibn \u2018Abbas, \u201cI have an earthenware pot containing Nabidh (i.e. water and dates or grapes<\/b>) for me, and I drink of it while it is sweet. If I drink much of it and stay with the people for a long time, I get afraid that they may discover it (for I will appear as if I were drunk)<\/b>. Ibn \u2018Abbas said, \u201cA delegation of Abdul Qais came to Allah\u2019s Apostle and he said, \u201cWelcome, O people! Neither will you have disgrace nor will you regret.\u201d They said, \u201cO Allah\u2019s Apostle! There are the Mudar pagans between you and us, so we cannot come to you except in the sacred Months. So please teach us some orders on acting upon which we will enter Paradise. Besides, we will preach that to our people who are behind us.\u201d The Prophet said, \u201cI order you to do four things and forbid you from four things (I order you): To believe in Allah\u2026Do you know what is to believe in Allah? That is to testify that None has the right to be worshipped except Allah: (I order you also to offer prayers perfectly to pay Zakat; and to fast the month of Ramadan and to give the Khumus (i.e. one-fifth of the booty) (for Allah\u2019s Sake). I forbid you from four other things (i.e. the wine that is prepared in) Ad-Dubba, An-Naquir, Az-Hantam and Al-Muzaffat. (See Hadith No. 50 Vol. 1).\u201d<\/p>\n

Not only is this another piece of evidence that the word\u2019s meaning isn\u2019t bound to \u2018fermented drinks\u2019, but it also shows that the Prophet made sure that the drink he drank did not wasn\u2019t fermented. Moreover:<\/p>\n

Sahih Muslim, Book 23, Number 4903:<\/a>
\n\u201cAbu Sa\u2019id al-Khudri reported Allah\u2019s Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: He who amongst you drinks Nabidh should drink that (prepared either from) grapes alone, or from dates alone, or from unripe dates alone (and not by mixing them with one another)<\/b>. Isma\u2019il b. Muslim al-\u2018Abadi reported on the authority of the same chain of transmitters: Allah\u2019s Messenger (may peace be upon him) prohibited us that we should mix dry dates with unripe dates or (mix) grapes with dry dates (and prepare Nabidh). He also said: He who amongst you drinks-the rest of the hadith is the same.\u201d<\/p>\n

A narration (Number 4895<\/a>) of Sahih Muslim says that wine comes from vine and date palms. The above narration informs us that Nabidh can include drinks that aren\u2019t mixed together, which makes it evident that this Arabic word doesn\u2019t only refer to fermented drinks. We also read:<\/p>\n

\u201cAs far as the scope of prohibition of drinking is concerned, it is not confined to some specific forms of wine<\/b> because the Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) has extended the scope of Khamr to every intoxicant<\/b>.\u201d (Prof. Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri \u2013 Legal Character Of Islamic Punishments \u2013 Minhaj-ul-Quran Publications, 1994 \u2013 Page 40<\/b>).<\/p>\n

They said:
\n\u201cNarrated by Abdullah bin Masoud (May God be pleased with him):
\nHe was with the Messenger of Allah peace be upon him on the night of the jinn when he asked him if he had water. He answered that he had wine in a pot. Mohammed said: Pour me some to do ablution and he did. [The] Prophet peace be upon him [said]: \u201cO Abdullah bin Masood it is a drink and a purifier.\u201d Musnad Ahmad \u2013 Hadith #3594.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reply:
\nBased on this narration, they claim the Prophet did ablution with wine. Firstly, is this narration even sahih? It\u2019s not.<\/p>\n

\u0625\u0633\u0646\u0627\u062f\u0647 \u0636\u0639\u064a\u0641<\/b>
\n\u201cIts chain is weak.\u201d (Declared By Sheikh Arna\u2019oot, #3782 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>)<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is da\u2019if.\u201d (Ath-Dhahabi \u2013 Tankeeh At-Tahqeeq 1\/19<\/b>).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s weak, because we have the problem of a narrator named Ibn Luhay\u2019ah in the chain.<\/p>\n

\u062a\u0641\u0631\u062f \u0628\u0647 \u0627\u0628\u0646 \u0644\u0647\u064a\u0639\u0629 \u0648\u0647\u0648 \u0636\u0639\u064a\u0641 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u062f\u064a<\/b>
\n\u201cIbn Luhay\u2019ah was alone in narrating this, and he is weak<\/b>.\u201d (Sunan Ad-Daraqutni, #240 \u2013 Source<\/a>. Daraqutni also mentions this narration\u2019s weaknesshere<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

More has been written against the authenticity of this narrator:<\/p>\n

\u201cAbd-Allah ibn Luhay\u2019ah is da\u2019eef (weak) in terms of his memory too.\u201d (Islam-QA \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is weakness of Ibn Lahi\u2019ah.\u201d (Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani \u2013 Taqrib Al-Tahdhib<\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cIbn Lahi\u2019ah was weak.\u201d (Ibn Khaldun cited Tabarani In \u2013 The Muqaddimah: An Introduction To History, Volume 1 \u2013 Princeton University Press, 1958 \u2013 Page 181<\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cIbn Lahi ah, whom the majority of hadith scholars consider to be weak<\/b>.\u201d (Association of Muslim Social Scientists \u2013 The American Journal Of Islamic Social Sciences: Volume 23 \u2013 International Institute Of Islamic Thought, 2006 \u2013 Page 6<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Even more has been written regarding the weakness of this narrator here<\/a> and here<\/a>. Additionally, this narration\u2019s content and chain is also found in other books of hadith collections, which hadith scholars unanimously class as weak (see here<\/a>). Moreover, this hadith has been narrated by Ibn Masood, but transmitted via a another chain. However, this chain is weak, because Abu Zaid al-Qurashi is unknown. (Source1<\/a>, Source2<\/a>, Source3<\/a>, Source4<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Additionally, commenting on Abu Zaid, Sheikh Albani writes:<\/p>\n

\u0623\u0628\u0648 \u0632\u064a\u062f \u0631\u062c\u0644 \u0645\u062c\u0647\u0648\u0644 \u0639\u0646\u062f \u0623\u0647\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b \u0644\u0627 \u064a\u0639\u0631\u0641 \u0644\u0647 \u0631\u0648\u0627\u064a\u0629 \u063a\u064a\u0631 \u0647\u0630\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b<\/b>
\n\u201cAbu Zaid is an unknown man, and scholars of hadith don\u2019t know his details from hadiths.\u201d (Source<\/a>, #120. Tirmidhi agrees also \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u0648\u0642\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0628\u062e\u0627\u0631\u064a : \u0623\u0628\u0648 \u0632\u064a\u062f \u0631\u062c\u0644 \u0645\u062c\u0647\u0648\u0644\u060c \u0644\u0627 \u064a\u0639\u0631\u0641 \u0628\u0635\u062d\u0628\u0629 \u0639\u0628\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647<\/b>
\n\u201cAl-Bukhari said: Abu Zaid is an unknown man, wasn\u2019t known to have accompanied Abdullah.\u201d (Source<\/a>. Ibn Haban mentions it\u2019s weakness too<\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u0642\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0647\u064a\u062b\u0645\u0649 : \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0623\u0628\u0648 \u0632\u064a\u062f \u0645\u0648\u0644\u0649 \u0639\u0645\u0631\u0648 \u0628\u0646 \u062d\u0631\u064a\u062b \u0648\u0647\u0648 \u0645\u062c\u0647\u0648\u0644<\/b>
\n\u201cAl-Haythami said: the freed slave Abu Zaid bin Amr Hurayth is unknown.\u201d (Cited In: Suyuti\u2019s: Jami Al-Ahadith, #11404 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

Also, notice how the Musnad Ahmad hadith says that he (Abdullah bin Masood) was with the Prophet during the night of the jinn (which would refer to the Mi\u2019raj). However, he never accompanied him at that time.<\/p>\n

\u0642\u0627\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u062f\u0627\u0631\u0642\u0637\u0646\u064a : \u0648\u0642\u064a\u0644 \u0625\u0646 \u0627\u0628\u0646 \u0645\u0633\u0639\u0648\u062f \u0644\u0645 \u064a\u0634\u0647\u062f \u0645\u0639 \u0627\u0644\u0646\u0628\u064a \u2013 \u0635\u0644\u0649 \u0627\u0644\u0644\u0647 \u0639\u0644\u064a\u0647 \u0648\u0633\u0644\u0645 \u2013 \u0644\u064a\u0644\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u062c<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cDaraqutni said: It was said that Ibn Masood did not witness with the Prophet<\/b><\/u> \u2013 peace be upon him \u2013 at the night of the jinn.\u201d (Daraqutni cited in Tafsir Al-Qurtubi \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

So, these chains of narrations are not authentic and cannot be used as evidence.
\nSecondly, even it was authentic, the Arabic word doesn\u2019t strictly refer to fermented drink. It could also refer to an unfermented drink. The critics attempt to refute this by providing lexicons on the Arabic \u201cnabiz\u201d which show it means wine. They fail to realize that back then when the Arabic was more pristine and pure, the term \u201cwine\u201d wasn\u2019t the only way it was understood. This is why he need to consult classical lexicons. The critics even show us from a classical lexicon that the word doesn\u2019t specifically refer to a fermented drink:
\n\u201cEntabaztuhu (the past tense from entabaza) \u2026\u2026 taken as nabeezen whether it is intoxicant or not<\/b>, it is called nabeezen and alkhamr (strong drink) squeezed from vine is called nabeez and the nabeez is called khamr (strong drink)\u201d (Lisan Al-Arab<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the part of Lisan Al-Arab the critic did not translate:
\n\u201cNabeeth is any drink that is made from dates, or grapes, or honey, or wheat, or barley, or other than that<\/b>. And it is called Nabeeth whether it is intoxicating OR NOT<\/b>.\u201d (Lisan Al-Arab \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).
\n\u0623\u0646\u0647 \u0646\u0628\u064a\u0630 \u0644\u0645 \u064a\u0634\u062a\u062f
\n<\/b>\u201cIt\u2019s Nabith that hasn\u2019t become intoxicated<\/b>.\u201d (Imam Nawawi: Commentary Of Sahih Muslim \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to them \u201cnabiz\u201d meant fruit juice in which dates, dried raisins, etc are added in order to sweeten and that is drunk before it forms foams and becomes intoxicant.\u201d (Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is Nabidh? It is a drink made of grapes; it is an Arab grape-juice<\/b>. Since when is grape-juice Haram? After Umar left alcohol, he took up grape-juice as his favorite drink. As even a half-wit knows, wine is made by fermented grapes. Fermentation means that the drink is left out for so long that it grows yeast and thereby becomes toxic. Therefore, the conclusion we reach is that grape-juice is Halal but if it becomes fermented, then it becomes Haram. Thus, Nabidh is Halal if it hasn\u2019t fermented. We can find the following fatwa on Al-Islam.com which says quite clearly: \u201cPermissibility of Nabidh which is not ripe nor becomes intoxicant\u201d (http:\/\/hadith.al-islam.com\/Bayan\/tree.asp?Lang=eng&ID=712<\/a>).\u201d (Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cAn unfermented liquor, called nabidh<\/b> like other palm-liquors, and made by letting water poured on fresh dates stand overnight, has been drunk since the time of Muhammad.\u201d (Western Arabia And The Red Sea \u2013 Naval Intelligence Division, 1946 \u2013 Page 489<\/b>).<\/p>\n

A learned Mufti writes:<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is incorrect to translate Nabeez as wine. The correct translation of nabeez is that drink which has been sweetened by putting dates, grapes or honey (flavoured water with these items) in it but has not reached the stage where it is fermented and becomes an intoxicant<\/b>. (Al ta\u2019reefaatul Fiqhiyah pg 225).\u201d (Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cNabidh: (\u0627\u0644\u0646\u0628\u064a\u0630) Water in which dates or grapes etc., are soaked and left overnight and is not yet fermented<\/b>. It is lawful. But it begins to ferment as the time passes, effervescence and bubbling appear and it turns out to be intoxicating and becomes unlawful.\u201d (Nasiruddin Al-Khattab \u2013 English Translation Of Sunan Nasai \u2013 Darussalam, 2007 \u2013 Volume 6 \u2013 Page 452<\/b>).<\/p>\n

There are various narrations which prohibit intoxications, and some examples include:
\nSahih Bukhari, Volume 3, Book 43, Number 655:<\/a>
\n\u201cNarrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, \u201cWhen an adulterer commits illegal sexual intercourse, then he is not a believer at the time, he is doing it, and when a drinker of an alcoholic liquor drinks it, then he is not a believer at the time of drinking it<\/b>, and when a thief steals, then he is not a believer at the time of stealing, and when a robber robs, and the people look at him, then he is not a believer at the time of doing robbery.\u201d<\/p>\n

The critics then seemed to imply that in the Sahih Muslim hadith<\/a>, the Arabic \u201ckhamr\u201d means strong drinks according to lexicons. However, they fail to realize that this word doesn\u2019t only have 1 meaning. It can also mean:

\n\u201cNarrated Jabir Bin Abdullah: The Prophet (SAW) said: Tie up your water skins and close your doors when you go to bed at night, and cover food and drink, for the devil comes, and if he does not find the door closed he will enter, and if he does not find the waterskin tied up he will drink from it<\/b>, and if he finds the door closed and the waterskin tied up, he does not open any water skin and he does not open a closed door, and if one of you cannot find something to cover his vessel in which is his drink, let him a place a stick over it<\/b>.\u201d (Sahih Ibn Khuzaymah, #139 \u2013 Declared Sahih By Ibn Khuzaymah \u2013 Source<\/a>. Also Declared Hasan By Sheikh Albani \u2013 Source<\/a> & Ibn Hibban \u2013 Source<\/a> & Sahih By Al-Hakim \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

So, the Sahih Muslim narration does not show the Prophet asking as to whether or not the drink was fermented. It shows that he asked as to whether or not the drink was covered, and the above narrations given evidently prove this and give the full context.<\/p>\n

They then cite a scholar from Lisan al-Arab:
\n\u201cIbn alatheer said \u2026\u2026. It is meant the act of getting drunk so they make (he continues) what is prohibited is the act itself of getting into a state of drunkenness and not the drink itself, so they allow what is little of it which does not cause drunkenness, and what is famous is the first one.\u201d<\/p>\n

They said:
\n\u201cWe understand also that even scholars considered only what is taken from wine to be prohibited and others allowed drinking a little amount of it on condition that one should not get drunk as the strong drink (Alkhamr) in itself is not prohibited.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reply:
\nCan\u2019t these critics read their own translation? Ibn Al-Atheer did not say one can have strong<\/i> drink so long as you don\u2019t get drunk. He said that which DOES NOT cause drunkenness. Let us read again:<\/p>\n

\u201cIbn alatheer said \u2026\u2026. It is meant the act of getting drunk so they make (he continues) what is prohibited is the act itself of getting into a state of drunkenness and not the drink itself, so they allow what is little of it which<\/b> DOES NOT CAUSE DRUNKENNESS<\/b>, and what is famous is the first one.\u201d
\nSo what is allowed here is little of which does not cause one to get drunk, according to Ibn Al-Atheer. What drink would that be? It would be what we have already proved it to be: UNFERMENTED DRINKS. Notice the critic writes \u201cothers<\/b> allowed drinking a little amount of it on condition that one should not get drunk as the strong drink (Alkhamr) in itself is not prohibited.\u201d
\nWho are the \u201cothers?\u201d All that was quoted as supposed evidence that one can drink a little alcohol if one does not get drunk was Ibn Al-Atheer (singular not plural), and even this was based on the critic\u2019s misreading of what Ibn Al-Atheer said, according to their own translation.<\/p>\n

They said:
\n\u201cWe notice also that the prohibition of al-khamr came later, 13 years from Muhammad\u2019s message. That is to say it was lawful for Muhammad to drink al-khamr especially because the definition of al-khamr at that time was not decisive as we saw some considered the word \u201csakar\u201d nabeez while others considered it khamr.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reply:
\nThe prohibition didn\u2019t come out of the blue 13 years later. It gradually came, until the last prohibition came in Surah 5:90-91. It was lawful before the prohibition of not getting drunk at salah (Surah 4:43). So, even if Prophet Muhammad did drink before<\/b> this period, it would\u2019ve have been back then, Islamically speaking. With that said, we have no proof the Prophet drank intoxicated drinks in his entire life. Commenting on the Prophet:<\/p>\n

\u201cHe never worshipped an idol, never drank alcohol<\/b>, never committed any offence and he was called among his people the \u201ctruthful and trustworthy.\u201d\u201d (Rabaa\u2019 Al Taweel \u2013 Reality Of The Testimony Of No God But Allah & Mohammed Is The Messenger Of Allah \u2013 Browsed By: Shaikh Abdul Aziz Al Shaikh \u2013 King Fahd National Library Cataloging-in-Publication Data Al-Taweel, 2007 \u2013 Page 127<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Sunan Abi Dawood, drinks, quality of al-Nabeez no. 3226 (Arabic version)<\/p>\n

Translation: Raisin was younbaz (prepared to be nabeez) and he drank it, the same day, the following day and the day after till the evening of the third day. Then he commanded that the servants would drink from it or to be poured down.
\nIn a hot country like Saudi Arabia, within three days the nabeez will be strong to some extent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reply:
\nA hot country would speed the process up. Exactly! That is the whole reason the Prophet made it forbidden<\/a> to prepare Nabidh in things like: green pitcher, varnished jar, etc, and is the reason why he prepared Nabidh in waterskins. As shown above<\/a>, placing it in waterskins slows down the process of fermentation, because waterskins are used to ensure drinks maintain their cool temperatures. If the Prophet was interested in fermented Nabidh, why would he not only forbid<\/b> other preparation methods, but endorse a method which takes long to ferment drinks? It\u2019s obvious here that he did not drink alcohol, nor desired to.
\nSecondly, the Prophet did not wait for it to become rotten to pour it down. He (in advance) poured it down, in fear that it might have fermented, even if it wasn\u2019t evident to him. This has already been discussed above<\/a>. Moreover, commenting on a very similar hadith on the authority of Ibn Abbas found in Sunan Nasai, we read:<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018(He) used to drink it\u2019 provided the danger of intoxication had not had occurred<\/b>. When there was danger of intoxication, it was poured out<\/b>.\u201d (Nasiruddin Al-Khattab \u2013 English Translation Of Sunan Nasai \u2013 Darussalam, 2007 \u2013 Commentary Of Hadith Number 5741 \u2013 Volume 6 \u2013 Page 373<\/b>).<\/p>\n

So, we CHALLANGE<\/b> the WikiIslam critics to prove that the Prophet threw away the drink, after it merely became rotten.<\/p>\n

They said:
\n\u201cIn another hadith we find that Muhammad himself drank the strong nabeez but after he broke it with water which means that it is not the material itself that matters but the states of getting drunk:

Translation: Narrated by Abi Masoud, he said: The prophet PBUH<\/acronym> got thirsty while he was doing tawaf (walking around the Black Stone), so he was given some nabeez from the al-Sekaa (pot made from skin) but he frowned and was asked: was it prohibited (haram)? He said No, fetch some zamzam water and he poured on it and drank.
\nThere are many other hadiths that prove that Muhammad commanded people to break the strong drink with water.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nFirstly, they must prove from this narration that the drink was fermented. Secondly, these critics might ignorantly claim that this narration is in Bukhari, but the translators were too scared to translate this. In reality, this is not the case. This narration was collected by Bukhari, but he did not include in in is Sahih collection. The reason why is because it is a weak hadith according to Bukhari, Abu Zarah Al-Razi, Daaraqutni, Ibn Hajar, Bayhaqi and others. (Source<\/a>).<\/p>\n

We have problems with a certain narrator named Yahya bin Yahman. This is what Bukhari himself said about this narrator:<\/p>\n

\u062d\u062f\u064a\u062b \u0636\u0639\u064a\u0641 \u0644\u0623\u0646 \u064a\u062d\u064a\u0649 \u0628\u0646 \u064a\u0645\u0627\u0646 \u0627\u0646\u0641\u0631\u062f \u0628\u0647 \u062f\u0648\u0646 \u0623\u0635\u062d\u0627\u0628 \u0633\u0641\u064a\u0627\u0646 \u0648\u0647\u0648 \u0633\u064a\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u062d\u0641\u0638 \u0643\u062b\u064a\u0631 \u0627\u0644\u062e\u0637\u0623
\n<\/b>
\n\u201cDa\u2019eef hadeeth because Yahya ibn Yahman narrated mistakes about Sufyan, and had a bad memory and made errors.\u201d (Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Yusuf al-Hanafi Zayla\u2019i \u2013 Nasb Al-Rayah Takhrij Ahadith \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cYahya ibn Yaman was weak.\u201d (Mizanul I\u2019tidal \u2013 cited here<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

\u201cYahya Ibn Yaman, of whom Ibn Hajr says: \u201cHe was a righteous man, but they (i.e. the scholars of Hadeeth) are agreed that he used to make many mistakes, especially in the Hadeeth of (Sufyan) Ath-Thawri<\/b>.\u201d (Muhammad Ibn \u2018Abd Al-Wahhab \u2013 Mukhtasar Zad Al-Ma\u2019ad \u2013 Darussalam, 2003 \u2013 Page 196<\/b>).
\n\u201cYahya bin Yaman is weak.\u201d (Sheikh Albani \u2013 Silsilah Hadith Daif: Volume 2 \u2013 Gema Insani, 1997 \u2013 Page 72<\/b>).<\/p>\n

Commenting on this hadith:<\/p>\n

\u0625\u0633\u0646\u0627\u062f \u0634\u062f\u064a\u062f \u0627\u0644\u0636\u0639\u0641 \u0641\u064a\u0647 \u0631\u0627\u0648 \u0645\u062c\u0647\u0648\u0644 \u0641\u064a \u0645\u0648\u0636\u0639 \u0627\u0644\u062a\u0639\u0644\u064a\u0642<\/b>
\n\u201cIsnad is very weak as there\u2019s an anonymous narrator and it\u2019s fabricated<\/b>.\u201d (Ibn Qutaybah \u2013 Kitab Al-Ashribah, #9 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>).<\/p>\n

The same narration is found in Sunan Nasai, #5706, which has been declared as weak by hadith scholar: Nasiruddin Al-Khattab (Nasiruddin Al-Khattab \u2013 English Translation Of Sunan Nasai \u2013 Darussalam, 2007 \u2013 Volume 6 \u2013 Page 360<\/b>).<\/p>\n

To add, Imam Al-Nasai who collected this narration himself stated that the hadith is weak (Source<\/a>. Also see: As-Sunan Al-Kubra An-Nasai, #5212 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>). Sheikh Albani also declared it weak (Sahih Wa Da\u2019if Sunan An-Nasai, #5703 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>). Likewise, Ibn Hajar has pointed to the weakness of the narration (Fathul Bari \u2013 Volume 3 \u2013 Page 67 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>). Imam Al-Bayhaqi has likewise pointed to the weakness of this hadith and to the narrators (Sunan Al-Kubra Lil-Bayhaqi, #17896 \u2013 Source<\/a><\/b>). More has been written against this hadith\u2019s authenticity here<\/a>, here<\/a> and here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even if the narration was authentic and deemed acceptable by hadith scholars, as reiterated before: the Arabic word used in this hadith (Nabidh) can refer to unfermented drink. Hence, it would fail to prove that the Prophet drank fermented drinks. The ignoramus critics at WikiIslam then claim that all narrations they used in their article are sahih. We CHALLENGE<\/b> them to academically adduce that the Musnad Ahmad narration and the one given above is sahih, giving reasons<\/b> as to why we should accept it\u2019s authenticity. Reasons have been given above to reject the authenticity of the 2 narrations.<\/p>\n

They said:
\n\u201cIn this case the entire section of hadith \u201cDrinking wine and fermenting the container\u201d has been omitted from English hadith collections.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reply:
\nThere is NO SUCH SECTION which mentions the above exact wording in Arabic. We CHALLENGE these bigots to provide us the Arabic text from Sahih Muslim.
\nTo conclude, these greenhorn critics need to do much more studying before attempting to promulgate their preconceived propaganda.<\/p>\n
