حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَنْ يُنْبَذَ فِي النَّقِيرِ وَالْمُزَفَّتِ وَالدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمَةِ وَقَالَ " كُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ " .

Abū Hurayrah reported that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade preparing nabīdh in the naqīr, the muzaffat, the dubāʾ, and the ḥantamah. He said, ‘Every intoxicant is forbidden.’
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
The report names four traditional vessel types: naqīr (a hollowed palm trunk), muzaffat (a vessel coated with pitch), dubāʾ (a gourd vessel), and ḥantamah (a type of jar). The exact forms and materials of some historical vessels can vary in descriptions.
Nabīdh is a drink prepared by soaking fruit.
قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ أَنْ يُنْبَذَ فِي النَّقِيرِ وَالْمُزَفَّتِ وَالدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمَةِ وَقَالَ " كُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ " .
The report lists four historical vessel names; although naqīr, muzaffat, and dubāʾ have commonly described forms, the exact vessel meant by ḥantamah is uncertain.
What precise type of vessel is intended by ḥantamah here?
