Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ السَّلَمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي ثَابِتٍ الثَّعْلَبِيِّ، قَالَ كُنْتُ عِنْدَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَجَاءَهُ رَجُلٌ فَسَأَلَهُ عَنِ الْعَصِيرِ، فَقَالَ اشْرَبْهُ مَا كَانَ طَرِيًّا ‏.‏ قَالَ إِنِّي طَبَخْتُ شَرَابًا وَفِي نَفْسِي مِنْهُ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَكُنْتَ شَارِبَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَطْبُخَهُ قَالَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ فَإِنَّ النَّارَ لاَ تُحِلُّ شَيْئًا قَدْ حَرُمَ ‏.‏

Translation

Suwayd narrated to us: ʿAbdullah informed us, from Abu Yaʿfur al-Sulami, from Abu Thabit al-Thaʿlabi, who said: I was with Ibn ʿAbbas when a man came and asked him about juice. He said: “Drink it while it is fresh.” The man said: “I boiled a drink, but I have some misgivings about it.” Ibn ʿAbbas asked: “Would you have drunk it before boiling it?” He replied: “No.” Ibn ʿAbbas said: “Fire does not make lawful something that was forbidden.”
