أَخْبَرَنَا سَوَّارُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَوَّارٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمَجِيدِ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ نَهَی رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَفْدَ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ حِينَ قَدِمُوا عَلَيْهِ عَنْ الدُّبَّائِ وَعَنْ النَّقِيرِ وَعَنْ الْمُزَفَّتِ وَالْمَزَادَةِ الْمَجْبُوبَةِ وَقَالَ انْتَبِذْ فِي سِقَائِکَ أَوْکِهِ وَاشْرَبْهُ حُلْوًا قَالَ بَعْضُهُمْ ائْذَنْ لِي يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا قَالَ إِذًا تَجْعَلَهَا مِثْلَ هَذِهِ وَأَشَارَ بِيَدِهِ يَصِفُ ذَلِکَ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5662
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم forbade the delegation of ‘Abdul-Qais, when they came to him, Ad-Dubba’, An-Naqir, Al Muzaffat, and large water-skins that are cut from the top and can no longer be closed. He said: ‘Make Nabidh in your water-skins, and close them and drink it sweet.’ One of them said: ‘Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم, give me permission concerning something like this. He said: ‘If you make it like this,’ and he gestured with his hand, showing him how.” (Sahih)
