أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ أَنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ يَزِيدَ الْخَطْمِيَّ قَالَ کَتَبَ إِلَيْنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَاطْبُخُوا شَرَابَکُمْ حَتَّی يَذْهَبَ مِنْهُ نَصِيبُ الشَّيْطَانِ فَإِنَّ لَهُ اثْنَيْنِ وَلَکُمْ وَاحِدٌ
سنن نسائی · Hadith 5733
It was narrated that ‘Abdullah bin Yazid Al-KhatmI said: “Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, wrote to us (saying): ‘Cook your drinks until the share of the Shaitan is gone, for be has two (shares) and you have one.” (Da’if)
