Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِي الْجُوَيْرِيَةِ الْجَرْمِيِّ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ ابْنَ عَبَّاسٍ وَهُوَ مُسْنِدٌ ظَهْرَهُ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ عَنِ الْبَاذَقِ، فَقَالَ سَبَقَ مُحَمَّدٌ الْبَاذَقَوَمَا أَسْكَرَ فَهُوَ حَرَامٌ ‏.‏قَالَ أَنَا أَوَّلُ الْعَرَبِ سَأَلَهُ
Translation
It was narrated that Abu Al-Juwairiyah Al-Jarmi said

"I asked Ibn 'Abbas, when he was leaning back against the Ka'bah, about Badhaq (a drink made from the juice of grapes slightly boiled). He said: 'Muhammad came before Badhaq (i.e., it was not known during his time), but everything that intoxicates in unlawful.'" He said: "I was the first of the 'Arabs to ask him."
