Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ أَبُو عُمَيْرِ بْنُ النَّحَّاسِ، عَنْ ضَمْرَةَ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ الدَّيْلَمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ قُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ لَنَا أَعْنَابًا فَمَاذَا نَصْنَعُ بِهَا قَالَ ‏"‏ زَبِّبُوهَا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَا فَمَا نَصْنَعُ بِالزَّبِيبِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ انْبِذُوهُ عَلَى غَدَائِكُمْ وَاشْرَبُوهُ عَلَى عَشَائِكُمْ وَانْبِذُوهُ عَلَى عَشَائِكُمْ وَاشْرَبُوهُ عَلَى غَدَائِكُمْ وَانْبِذُوهُ فِي الشِّنَانِ وَلاَ تَنْبِذُوهُ فِي الْقِلاَلِ فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ تَأَخَّرَ صَارَ خَلاًّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Translation

ʿIsa ibn Muhammad Abu ʿUmayr ibn al-Nahhas narrated to us, from Damrah, from al-Shaybani, from Ibn al-Daylami, from his father, who said: We asked: “Messenger of Allah, we have grapes. What should we do with them?” He said: “Make them into raisins.” We asked: “What should we do with the raisins?” He said: “Soak them at midday and drink them in the evening, or soak them in the evening and drink them the next morning. Soak them in leather waterskins, not in large jars, for if you leave them, they will turn to vinegar.”

Translation notes
  • The report describes preparing and drinking a fresh raisin infusion within the same day.
