Abu Jamra reported: I was an interpreter between Ibn Abbas and the people, that a woman happened to come there and asked about nabidh or the pitcher of wine. He replied: A delegation of the people of 'Abdul-Qais came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). He (the Holy Prophet) asked the delegation or the people (of the delegation about their identity). They replied that they belonged to the tribe of Rabi'a. He (the Holy Prophet) welcomed the people or the delegation which were neither humiliated nor put to shame. They (the members of the delegation) said: Messenger of Allah, we come to you from a far-off distance and there lives between you and us a tribe of the unbelievers of Mudar and, therefore, it is not possible for us to come to you except in the sacred months. Thus direct us to a clear command, about which we should inform people beside us and by which we may enter heaven. He (the Holy Prophet) replied: I command you to do four deeds and forbid you to do four (acts), and added: I direct you to affirm belief in Allah alone, and then asked them: Do you know what belief in Allah really implies? They said: Allah and His Messenger know best. The Prophet said: It implies testimony to the fact that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, establishment of prayer, payment of Zakat, fast of Ramadan, that you pay one-fifth of the booty (fallen to your lot) and I forbid you to use gourd, wine jar, or a receptacle for wine. Shu'ba sometimes narrated the word naqir (wooden pot) and sometimes narrated it as muqayyar. The Prophet also said: Keep it in your mind and inform those who have been left behind.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، وَأَلْفَاظُهُمْ مُتَقَارِبَةٌ، قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرِ: حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، وَقَالَ الْآخَرَانِ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ أُتَرْجِمُ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، وَبَيْنَ النَّاسِ، فَأَتَتْهُ امْرَأَةٌ، تَسْأَلُهُ عَنْ نَبِيذِ الْجَرِّ، فَقَالَ: إِنَّ وَفْدَ عَبْدِ الْقَيْسِ أَتَوْا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنِ الْوَفْدُ؟ أَوْ مَنِ الْقَوْمُ؟»، قَالُوا: رَبِيعَةُ، قَالَ: «مَرْحَبًا بِالْقَوْمِ، أَوْ بِالْوَفْدِ، غَيْرَ خَزَايَا، وَلَا النَّدَامَى»، قَالَ: فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّا نَأْتِيكَ مِنْ شُقَّةٍ بَعِيدَةٍ، وَإِنَّ بَيْنَنَا وَبَيْنَكَ هَذَا الْحَيَّ مِنْ كُفَّارِ مُضَرَ، وَإِنَّا لَا نَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ نَأْتِيكَ إِلَّا فِي شَهْرِ الْحَرَامِ، فَمُرْنَا بِأَمْرٍ فَصْلٍ نُخْبِرْ بِهِ مَنْ وَرَاءَنَا نَدْخُلُ بِهِ الْجَنَّةَ، قَالَ: فَأَمَرَهُمْ بِأَرْبَعٍ، وَنَهَاهُمْ عَنْ أَرْبَعٍ، قَالَ: «أَمَرَهُمْ بِالْإِيمَانِ بِاللهِ وَحْدَهُ»، وَقَالَ: «هَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا الْإِيمَانُ بِاللهِ؟» قَالُوا: اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ، قَالَ: «شَهَادَةُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللهُ وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا رَسُولُ اللهِ، وَإِقَامُ الصَّلَاةِ، وَإِيتَاءُ الزَّكَاةِ، وَصَوْمُ رَمَضَانَ، وَأَنَّ تُؤَدُّوا خُمُسًا مِنَ الْمَغْنَمِ»، وَنَهَاهُمْ عَنِ الدُّبَّاءِ، وَالْحَنْتَمِ، وَالْمُزَفَّتِ - قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ - النَّقِيرِ، قَالَ شُعْبَةُ: وَرُبَّمَا قَالَ: الْمُقَيَّرِ، وَقَالَ: «احْفَظُوهُ، وَأَخْبِرُوا بِهِ مِنْ وَرَائِكُمْ» وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ: «مَنْ وَرَاءَكُمْ»، وَلَيْسَ فِي رِوَايَتِهِ الْمُقَيَّرُ.
  شعبہ نے ابو جمرہ سے حدیث بیان کی ، انہوں نے کہا : میں حضرت عبد اللہ بن عباس ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ اور ( دوسرے ) لوگوں کے درمیان ترجمان تھا ، ان کے پاس ایک عورت آئی ، وہ ان سے گھڑے کی نبیذ کے بارے میں سوال کر رہی تھی توحضرت ابن عباس ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ نے جواب دیا : رسول اللہ ﷺ کی خدمت میں عبد القیس کا وفد آیا ۔ رسول اللہ ﷺ نے پوچھا : ’’یہ کون سا وفد ہے ؟ ( یا فرمایا : یہ کو ن لوگ ہیں ؟ ) ‘ ‘ انہوں نے کہا : ربیعہ ( قبیلہ سے ہیں ۔ ) فرمایا : ’’ اس قوم ( یا وفد ) کو خوش آمدید جو رسوا ہوئے نہ نادم ۔ ‘ ‘ ( ابن عباس ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ نے ) کہا ، ان لوگوں نے عرض کی : اے اللہ کےرسول ! ہم لوگ آپ کے پاس بہت دور سے آتے ہیں ، ہمارے اور آپ کے درمیان مضر کے کافروں کا یہ قبیلہ ( حائل ) ہے ، ہم ( کسی ) حرمت والے مہینے کے سوا آپ کے پاس نہیں آ سکتے ، آپ ہمیں فیصلہ کن بات بتائیے جو ہم اپنے ( گھروں میں ) پیچھے لوگوں کو ( بھی ) بتائیں اور اس کے ذریعے سے ہم جنت میں داخل ہو جائیں ۔ ابن عباس ‌رضی ‌اللہ ‌عنہ ‌ ‌ نے بتایا : آپ نے ان چار باتوں کا حکم دیا اور چار چیزیں سے روکا ۔ آپ نے ان کو اکیلے اللہ تعالیٰ پر ایمان لانا کا حکم دیا اور پوچھا : ’’جانتے ہو ، صرف اللہ پر ایمان لانا کیا ہے ؟ ‘ ‘ انہوں نے کہا : اللہ اور اس کے رسول ہی زیادہ جاننے والے ہیں ۔ آپ نے فرمایا : ’’اس حقیقت کی گواہی دینا کہ اللہ کے سوا کوئی الٰہ نہیں اور محمد ﷺ اللہ کے رسول ہیں ، نماز قائم کرنا ، زکاۃ دینا ، رمضان کے روزے رکھنا اور یہ کہ تم مال غنیمت میں سے اس کا پانچواں حصہ ادا کرو ۔ ‘ ‘ اور انہیں خشک کدو سے بنائے ہوئے برتن ، سبز مٹکے اور تارکول ملے ہوئے برتن ( استعمال کرنے ) سے منع کیا ( شعبہ نے کہا : ) ابو جمرہ نے شاید نقیر ( لکڑی میں کھدائی کر کے بنایا ہوا برتن کہا یا شاید مقیر ( تارکول ملا ہوا برتن ) کہا ۔ اور آپ نے فرمایا : ’’ان کو خوب یاد رکھو اور اپنے پیچھے ( والوں کو ) بتا دو ۔ ‘ ‘ ابو بکر بن ابی شیبہ کی روایت میں ( من ورائکم کے بجائے ) من وراءکم ( ان کو ( بتاؤ ) جو تمہارے پیچھے ہیں ) کے الفاظ ہیں اور ان کی روایت میں مقیر کا ذکر نہیں ( بلکہ نقیر کا ہے ۔ )

There is another hadith narrated on the authority of Ibn Abbas (the contents of which are similar to the one) narrated by Shu'ba in which the Prophet ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: I forbid you to prepare nabidh in a gourd, hollowed block of wood, a varnished jar or receptacle. Ibn Mu'adh made this addition on the authority of his father that the Messenger of Allah said to Ashajj, of the tribe of 'Abdul-Qais: You possess two qualities which are liked by Allah: insight and deliberateness.

sahih-muslim-118

It is reported on the authority of Qatada that one among the delegates of the 'Abdul-Qais tribe narrated this tradition to him. Sa'id said that Qatada had mentioned the name of Abu Nadra on the authority of Abu Sa'id Khudri who narrated this tradition: That people from the- tribe of 'Abdul-Qais came to the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) and said: Messenger of Allah, we belong to the tribe of Rabi'a and there live between you and us the unbelievers of the Mudar tribe and we find it impossible to come to you except in the sacred months; direct us to a deed which we must communicate to those who have been left behind us and by doing which we may enter heaven. Upon this the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: I enjoin upon you four (things) and forbid you to do four (things): worship Allah and associate none with Him, establish prayer, pay Zakat, and observe the fast of Ramadan, and pay the fifth part out of the booty. And I prohibit you from four (things): dry gourds, green-coloured jars, hollowed stumps of palm-trees, and receptacles. They (the members of the delegation) said: Do you know what al-naqir is? He replied: Yes, it is a stump which you hollow out and in which you throw small dates. Sa'id said: He (the Holy Prophet) used the word tamar (dates). (The Prophet then added): Then you sprinkle water over it and when its ebullition subsides, you drink it (and you are so intoxicated) that one amongst you, or one amongst them (the other members of your tribe, who were not present there) strikes his cousin with the sword. He (the narrator) said: There was a man amongst us who had sustained injury on this very account due to (intoxication), and he told that he tried to conceal it out of shame from the Messenger of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ). I, however, inquired from the Messenger of Allah (it we discard those utensils which you have forbidden us to use), then what type of vessels should be used for drink? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: In the waterskin the mouths of which are tied (with a string). They (again) said: Prophet of Allah, our land abounds in rats and water-skins cannot remain preserved. The holy Prophet of Allah ( صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ) said: (Drink in water-skins) even if these arenibbled by rats. And then (addressing) al-Ashajj of 'Abdul-Qais he said: Verily, you possess two such qualities which Allah loves: insight and deliberateness.

He (the Prophet) said: (Not to speak of beverages, I would lay stress) that you should not drink in the wine jars. They said: Apostle of Allah, may God enable us to lay down our lives for you, do you know what al-naqir is? He (the Holy Prophet) replied: Yes, it is a stump which you hollow out in the middle, and added: Do not use gourd or receptacle (for drink). Use water-skin the mouth of which is tied with a thong (for this purpose).

It is reported on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas that Mu'adh said: The Messenger of Allah sent me (as a governor of Yemen) and (at the time of departure) instructed me thus: You will soon find yourself in a community one among the people of the Book, so first call them to testify that there is no god but Allah, that I (Muhammad) am the messenger of Allah, and if they accept this, then tell them Allah has enjoined upon them five prayers during the day and the night and if they accept it, then tell them that Allah has made Zakat obligatory for them that it should be collected from the rich and distributed among the poor, and if they agree to it don't pick up (as a share of Zakat) the best of their wealths. Beware of the supplication of the oppressed for there is no barrier between him and Allah.
