Abd al-Rahman b. Wa'ala as-Saba'i (who was an Egyptian) asked 'Abdullah b. Abbas; (Allah be pleased with them) about that which is extracted from the grapes, whereupon he said:
A person presented to Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) a small water-skin of wine. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) said to him: Do you know that Allah has forbidden it? He said: No. He then whispered to another man. Allah's Messenger ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) asked him what he had whispered. He said: I advised him to sell that, whereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: Verily He Who has forbidden its drinking has forbidden its sale also. He (the narrator) said: He opened the waterskin until what was contained in it was spilt.
