Sunan an-Nasa'i 5548
أَخْبَرَنَا وَاصِلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ فُضَيْلٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ أَبِي عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ نَهَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ وَالْحَنْتَمِ وَالْمُزَفَّتِ وَالنَّقِيرِ وَأَنْ يُخْلَطَ الْبَلَحُ وَالزَّهْوُ.
Wasil ibn ʿAbd al-Aʿla reported to us; he said: Ibn Fudayl narrated to us, from Habib ibn Abi ʿAmrah, from Saʿid ibn Jubayr, from Ibn ʿAbbas, who said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, forbade the gourd vessel, the earthen jar, the pitch-coated vessel, and the hollowed palm-trunk vessel; he also forbade mixing unripe dates with dates just beginning to ripen.
Translation notes
The Arabic names four traditional vessels used for fermenting drinks; the final prohibition concerns combining two stages of dates in a drink.
