Drinks

Abū Nuʿaym narrated to us: Misʿar narrated to us, from ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Maysarah, from al-Nazzāl, who said: ʿAlī (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the gate of al-Raḥbah and drank while standing. He said, “Some people dislike drinking while standing, but I saw the Prophet ﷺ do as you have seen me do.”

Ādam narrated to us: Shuʿbah narrated to us: ʿAbd al-Malik ibn Maysarah narrated to us: I heard al-Nazzāl ibn Sabrah report from ʿAlī (may Allah be pleased with him) that he prayed the noon prayer, then sat attending to people’s needs in the open area of Kūfah until the afternoon prayer was due. Water was then brought to him. He drank, washed his face and hands, and wiped his head and feet. Then he stood and drank what remained while standing. He said, “Some people dislike drinking while standing, but the Prophet ﷺ did just as I have done.”

Abū Nuʿaym narrated to us: Sufyān narrated to us, from ʿĀṣim al-Aḥwal, from al-Shaʿbī, from Ibn ʿAbbās, who said: “The Prophet ﷺ drank while standing from Zamzam.”

Mālik ibn Ismāʿīl narrated to us: ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz ibn Abī Salamah narrated to us: Abū al-Naḍr informed us, from ʿUmayr, the freedman of Ibn ʿAbbās, from Umm al-Faḍl bint al-Ḥārith: “She sent the Prophet ﷺ a cup of milk while he was standing on the evening of ʿArafah, and he took it in his hand and drank it.”

Mālik added, from Abū al-Naḍr: “While he was on his camel.”

Ismāʿīl narrated to us; he said: Mālik narrated to me, from Ibn Shihāb, from Anas ibn Mālik (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought milk diluted with water. A Bedouin was on his right and Abū Bakr on his left. He drank, then gave it to the Bedouin and said, “The one on the right, the one on the right.”

Ismāʿīl narrated to us; he said: Mālik narrated to me, from Abū Ḥāzim ibn Dīnār, from Sahl ibn Saʿd (may Allah be pleased with him): The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was brought a drink and drank some of it. A boy was on his right and some elders were on his left. He said to the boy, “Will you allow me to give these elders some?” The boy said, “By Allah, Messenger of Allah, I would not give anyone preference over me for my share from you.” So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ placed it in his hand.

Yaḥyā ibn Ṣāliḥ narrated to us: Fulayḥ ibn Sulaymān narrated to us, from Saʿīd ibn al-Ḥārith, from Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh (may Allah be pleased with them both): The Prophet ﷺ visited a man from the Anṣār, accompanied by one of his companions. The Prophet ﷺ and his companion greeted him, and the man returned the greeting, saying, “May my father and mother be sacrificed for you, Messenger of Allah.” It was a hot hour, and the man was moving water around in his garden. The Prophet ﷺ said, “If you have water that has remained overnight in a waterskin, bring it; otherwise, we will drink directly from the water.” The man was moving water around in his garden. He said, “Messenger of Allah, I have water that has remained overnight in a waterskin.” He went to the shelter, poured water into a cup, then milked some milk from a domesticated animal into it. The Prophet ﷺ drank, then handed the cup back, and the man who had accompanied him drank.

Musaddad narrated to us: Muʿtamir narrated to us, from his father, who said: I heard Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) say: “I was standing among the people, serving them fadīkh—my paternal uncles, while I was the youngest of them—when it was announced, ‘Wine has been forbidden.’ He said, ‘Pour it away!’ So we poured it away.” I asked Anas, “What was their drink?” He said, “Fresh dates and unripe dates.” Abū Bakr ibn Anas said, “That was their wine,” and Anas did not object. One of my companions told me that he heard Anas say, “That was their wine on that day.”

Isḥāq ibn Manṣūr narrated to us: Rawḥ ibn ʿUbādah informed us: Ibn Jurayj informed us; he said: ʿAṭāʾ informed me that he heard Jābir ibn ʿAbd Allāh (may Allah be pleased with them both) say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “When night falls—or when evening comes—keep your children close, for the devils spread out at that time. When an hour of the night has passed, let them go. Close the doors and mention Allah’s name, for Satan does not open a closed door. Tie up your waterskins and mention Allah’s name; cover your vessels and mention Allah’s name, even by placing something across them; and extinguish your lamps.”

Mūsā ibn Ismāʿīl narrated to us: Hammām narrated to us, from ʿAṭāʾ, from Jābir: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Extinguish the lamps when you go to sleep, close the doors, tie up the waterskins, and cover food and drink”—and I think he said—“even by placing a stick across it.”

Muḥammad ibn Muqātil narrated to us: ʿAbd Allāh informed us: Yūnus informed us, from al-Zuhrī, who said: ʿUbayd Allāh ibn ʿAbd Allāh narrated to me that he heard Abū Saʿīd al-Khudrī say: “I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbid drinking from the mouths of waterskins.” ʿAbd Allāh said: Maʿmar or someone else said, “It means drinking directly from their mouths.”

ʿAlī ibn ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us: Sufyān narrated to us: Ayyūb narrated to us; he said: ʿIkrimah told us, “Shall I tell you some brief reports that Abū Hurayrah related to us?” The Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade drinking from the mouth of a waterskin or water vessel, and forbade a man from preventing his neighbor from setting a beam into his house.

When any of you urinates, let him not touch his penis with his right hand; and when any of you cleans himself, let him not clean himself with his right hand.”

Abū ʿĀṣim and Abū Nuʿaym narrated to us; they said: ʿAzrah ibn Thābit narrated to us; he said: Thumāmah ibn ʿAbd Allāh informed me: “Anas would breathe into the vessel two or three times, and he maintained that the Prophet ﷺ used to breathe three times.”

Ḥafṣ ibn ʿUmar narrated to us: Shuʿbah narrated to us, from al-Ḥakam, from Ibn Abī Laylā, who said: “Ḥudhayfah was in al-Madāʾin and asked for water. A local notable brought him a silver cup, which he threw away. He said, ‘I threw it only because I had forbidden him and he did not stop. The Prophet ﷺ forbade us to wear silk and brocade and to drink from vessels of gold and silver. He said, “They are for them in this world, and they are for you in the Hereafter.”’”

Muḥammad ibn al-Muthannā narrated to us: Ibn Abī ʿAdī narrated to us, from Ibn ʿAwn, from Mujāhid, from Ibn Abī Laylā, who said: “We went out with Ḥudhayfah, and he mentioned the Prophet ﷺ, who said, ‘Do not drink from vessels of gold and silver, and do not wear silk or brocade, for they are for them in this world and for you in the Hereafter.’”

Ismāʿīl narrated to us; he said: Mālik ibn Anas narrated to me, from Nāfiʿ, from Zayd ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿUmar, from ʿAbd Allāh ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Abī Bakr al-Ṣiddīq, from Umm Salamah, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Whoever drinks from a silver vessel is only gulping the fire of Hell into his belly.”
