17. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Kulayb ibn Mu‘awiyah has said the following
“Abu Basir and his friends drank al-Nabidh and they broke it with water. I mentioned it before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and he (the Imam) said to me, ‘How can water make intoxicating liquor lawful? Command them not to drink from it in large or small quantities.’ I then said that they say, ‘The approval of the family of Muhammad makes it lawful for them.’ He (the Imam) said, ‘Why should family of Muhammad make intoxicating liquor lawful when they do not drink it in large or small quantities? You must refrain from drinking it.’ We then came together before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), and abu Basir said, ‘This has come to us from you as such and such.’ He (the Imam (a.s.) ) said, ‘You must accept it as true, O abu Muhammad, water does not make intoxicating liquor lawful. You must not drink it in large or small quantities.’”
مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ كُلَيْبِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ قَالَ
كَانَ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ وَ أَصْحَابُهُ يَشْرَبُونَ النَّبِيذَ يَكْسِرُونَهُ بِالْمَاءِ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِذَلِكَ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَقَالَ لِي وَ كَيْفَ صَارَ الْمَاءُ يُحَلِّلُ الْمُسْكِرَ مُرْهُمْ لَا يَشْرَبُوا مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا وَ لَا كَثِيراً قُلْتُ إِنَّهُمْ يَذْكُرُونَ أَنَّ الرِّضَا مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ يُحِلُّهُ لَهُمْ فَقَالَ وَ كَيْفَ كَانَ يُحِلُّونَ آلُ مُحَمَّدٍ ( عليه السلام ) الْمُسْكِرَ وَ هُمْ لَا يَشْرَبُونَ مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا وَ لَا كَثِيراً فَأَمْسِكُوا عَنْ شُرْبِهِفَاجْتَمَعْنَا عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو بَصِيرٍ إِنَّ ذَا جَاءَنَا عَنْكَ بِكَذَا وَ كَذَا فَقَالَ ( عليه السلام ) صَدَقَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّ الْمَاءَ لَا يُحَلِّلُ الْمُسْكِرَ فَلَا تَشْرَبُوا مِنْهُ قَلِيلًا وَ لَا كَثِيراً .
