Drinking Alcohol Before Prohibition

SUMMARY: People drank alcohol before it was prohibited and were killed as martyrs on the same day.

Narrated Jabir: Some people drank alcoholic beverages in the morning (of the day) of the Uhud battle and on the same day they were killed as martyrs, and that was before wine was prohibited.
حَدَّثَنَا صَدَقَةُ بْنُ الْفَضْلِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، قَالَ صَبَّحَ أُنَاسٌ غَدَاةَ أُحُدٍ الْخَمْرَ فَقُتِلُوا مِنْ يَوْمِهِمْ جَمِيعًا شُهَدَاءَ، وَذَلِكَ قَبْلَ تَحْرِيمِهَا‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about a group of people who drank alcohol in the morning of the Battle of Uhud, before it was prohibited. They were then killed as martyrs on that same day. This hadith teaches us that even though drinking alcohol was not yet prohibited, it still led to their death and they were still considered martyrs. It also shows us that even if something is not explicitly forbidden, we should still be careful with our actions and think about how they will affect us in the long run. We should also strive to do good deeds so that we can be rewarded for them in this life or the hereafter.
