Sunan an-Nasai 5581 (Book 51, Hadith 43) #20114
Forbidden Intoxicants

SUMMARY: Intoxicants are forbidden in Islam, regardless of the amount consumed.

It was narrated that Ibn Sirin said: "A man came to Ibn 'Umar and said: 'Our families make drinks for us by soaking (fruits) at night, and in the morning we drink them'. He said: 'I forbid you to drink intoxicants whether in small amounts or large. May Allah bear witness that I forbid you to drink intoxicants whether in small amounts or large. May Allah bear witness that the people of Khaibar used to make drinks by soaking such and such, and they called it such and such but it was Khamr. The people of Fadak used to make drinks by soaking such and such, and they called it such and such but it was Khamr'. And he listed four things, one of which was honey".
أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَوْنٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى ابْنِ عُمَرَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ أَهْلَنَا يَنْبِذُونَ لَنَا شَرَابًا عَشِيًّا فَإِذَا أَصْبَحْنَا شَرِبْنَا ‏.‏ قَالَ أَنْهَاكَ عَنِ الْمُسْكِرِ قَلِيلِهِ وَكَثِيرِهِ وَأُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْكَ أَنْهَاكَ عَنِ الْمُسْكِرِ قَلِيلِهِ وَكَثِيرِهِ وَأُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ عَلَيْكَ إِنَّ أَهْلَ خَيْبَرَ يَنْتَبِذُونَ شَرَابًا مِنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَيُسَمُّونَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَهِيَ الْخَمْرُ وَإِنَّ أَهْلَ فَدَكٍ يَنْتَبِذُونَ شَرَابًا مِنْ كَذَا وَكَذَا يُسَمُّونَهُ كَذَا وَكَذَا وَهِيَ الْخَمْرُ حَتَّى عَدَّ أَشْرِبَةً أَرْبَعَةً أَحَدُهَا الْعَسَلُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the prohibition of intoxicants in Islam. It was narrated by Ibn Sirin that a man came to Ibn 'Umar and asked if it was permissible to drink intoxicant drinks made from soaking fruits overnight. In response, Ibn 'Umar forbade him from drinking any kind of intoxicant drinks whether in small or large amounts. He then went on to explain that people used to make such drinks by soaking certain fruits and calling them different names but they were all considered as khamr or intoxicant drinks according to Islamic law. This hadith teaches us that consuming any kind of intoxicating substances is strictly prohibited in Islam regardless of the amount consumed and even if it has been given a different name than what it actually is.
