Hadith 2040
Musnad of 'Abdullah bin al-'Abbas bin 'Abdul-Muttalib from the Prophet
It was narrated that 'Abdur-Rahman bin Wa’lah said: I asked Ibn 'Abbas about selling wine and he said:
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had a friend from Thaqeef, or from Daws. He met him in Makkah during the year of the conquest, and brought a skin of wine to give him as a gift. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "O Father of So and so, don't you know that Allah has forbidden it?" The man turned to his slave and said: Go and sell it. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “O Father of So and so, what did you tell him to do?” He said: I told him to sell it. He said: “The One Who forbade drinking it also forbade selling it.” So he instructed that it be poured away in al-Batha'.
