"For Allah says, 'There is no sin upon those who believe and do righteous deeds for what they have eaten when they feared Allah and believed and did good deeds.' (Al-Ma'idah 93) And I am one of them, that is, from the early emigrants and from the people of Badr and Uhud. So he said to the people, 'Answer the man.' And they remained silent. Then he said to Ibn Abbas, 'Answer him.' So he said, 'Verily, it was only revealed as an excuse for those who drank it before it was prohibited.' And He revealed, 'Indeed, intoxicants, gambling, [sacrificing on] stone alters [to other than Allah], and divining arrows are but defilement from the work of Satan, so avoid it.' (Al-Ma'idah 90) It is a proof against the rest. Then he asked the one who was with him about the punishment for it, so Ali ibn Abi Talib said, 'If a person drinks this, then he invents [a lie], so flog him eighty lashes.'"

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحِيمِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ فُلَيْحِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي ثَوْرُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ الدِّيلِيُّ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَنَّ قُدَامَةَ بْنَ مَظْعُونٍ شَرِبَ الْخَمْرَ بِالْبَحْرَيْنِ فَشَهِدَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ سُئِلَ فَأَقَرَّ أَنَّهُ شَرِبَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ §مَا حَمَلَكَ عَلَى ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ

The Prophet ﷺ did not prescribe any punishment for drinking wine. Ibn Abbas said: A man who had drunk wine and become intoxicated was found staggering on the road, so he was taken to the Prophet ﷺ. When he was opposite al-Abbas's house, he escaped, and going in to al-Abbas, he grasped hold of him. When that was mentioned to the Prophet ﷺ, he laughed and said: Did he do that? and he gave no command regarding him. Abu Dawud said: This tradition of al-Hasan b. 'Ali has been transmitted only by the people of Medina.

أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى عَنْ أَبِي عَاصِمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي عِكْرِمَةُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ

لَمْ يُقْتِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْخَمْرِ حَدًّا قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَشَرِبَ رَجُلٌ فَسَكِرَ فَلُقِيَ يَمِيلُ فِي الْفَجِّ فَانْطُلِقَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا حَاذَى دَارَ الْعَبَّاسِ انْفَلَتَ فَدَخَلَ عَلَى الْعَبَّاسِ فَالْتَزَمَهُ فَذُكِرَ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَضَحِكَ وَقَالَ «أَفَعَلَهَا وَلَمْ يَأْمُرْ فِيهِ بِشَيْءٍ»
