Sunan an-Nasai 5746 (Book 51, Hadith 208) #20279
The Dregs of Khamr

SUMMARY: Khamr is an intoxicating drink that is made by adding new materials to the dregs of a previous batch. It is disliked because it does not contain the good parts of the original drink.

It was narrated that Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab said: "Khamr is so called because it is left until the good parts are gone and the dregs remain". And he disliked everything that was made by using dregs (by adding new materials to the dregs).
أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، قَالَ إِنَّمَا سُمِّيَتِ الْخَمْرُ لأَنَّهَا تُرِكَتْ حَتَّى مَضَى صَفْوُهَا وَبَقِيَ كَدَرُهَا ‏.‏ وَكَانَ يَكْرَهُ كُلَّ شَىْءٍ يُنْبَذُ عَلَى عَكَرٍ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith discusses the concept of khamr, which is an alcoholic beverage that has been around since ancient times. It explains why it is called khamr and why it is disliked by some people. According to this hadith, khamr gets its name from being left until all the good parts are gone and only the dregs remain. The dregs are what remains after a liquid has been boiled or fermented for a long time, leaving behind only small particles or sediment at the bottom of a container. In this case, new materials are added to these dregs in order to make more khamr, which makes it undesirable according to Sa'eed bin Al-Musayyab. This hadith teaches us that we should be careful about what we consume and be aware of how things are made in order for us to make informed decisions about our health and wellbeing.
