Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ يُنْبَذُ لَهُ فِي سِقَاءِ الزَّبِيبِ غُدْوَةً فَيَشْرَبُهُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَيُنْبَذُ لَهُ عَشِيَّةً فَيَشْرَبُهُ غُدْوَةً وَكَانَ يَغْسِلُ الأَسْقِيَةَ وَلاَ يَجْعَلُ فِيهَا دُرْدِيًّا وَلاَ شَيْئًا ‏.‏ قَالَ نَافِعٌ فَكُنَّا نَشْرَبُهُ مِثْلَ الْعَسَلِ ‏.‏

Translation

Suwayd reported to us: ʿAbdullah informed us, from ʿUbaydullah, from Nafiʿ, from Ibn ʿUmar, that raisin nabidh would be prepared for him in a waterskin in the morning, and he would drink it that evening. It would be prepared for him in the evening, and he would drink it the following morning. He used to wash the waterskins and put no sediment or anything in them. Nafiʿ said: ‘We used to drink it like honey.’

Translation notes

  • Nabidh is an infusion made by steeping raisins in water.
