Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ عَبِيدَةَ، قَالَ أَحْدَثَ النَّاسُ أَشْرِبَةً مَا أَدْرِي مَا هِيَ وَمَا لِي شَرَابٌ مُنْذُ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً إِلاَّ الْمَاءُ وَاللَّبَنُ وَالْعَسَلُ ‏.‏

Translation

Suwayd reported to us: ʿAbdullah informed us, from Ibn ʿAwn, from Muhammad ibn Sirin, from ʿAbidah, who said: ‘People have introduced drinks that I do not know what they are. For twenty years I have had no drink except water, milk, and honey.’
