Hadith 53

The Book of Drinks

ENGLISH

It was narrated that Ya'la bin 'Ata' said:

"I heard Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab say, when a Bedouin asked him about a drink that had been cooked and reduced by half: 'No, not until two-third has gone and one-third is left.'"

ARABIC

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، وَسَأَلَهُ، أَعْرَابِيٌّ عَنْ شَرَابٍ، يُطْبَخُ عَلَى النِّصْفِ فَقَالَ لاَ حَتَّى يَذْهَبَ ثُلُثَاهُ وَيَبْقَى الثُّلُثُ ‏.‏
