Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنِ وَائِلٍ الْحَضْرَمِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّ رَجُلًا يُقَالُ لَهُ سُوَيْدُ بْنُ طَارِقٍ سَأَلَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ الْخَمْرِ فَنَهَاهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَصْنَعُهَا لِلدَّوَاءِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنَّهَا دَاءٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِدَوَاءٍ.
English Translation
Abd al-Razzaq told us: Isra'il informed us, from Simak ibn Harb, from Alqamah ibn Wa'il al-Hadrami, from his father, that a man called Suwayd ibn Tariq asked the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) about wine, and he forbade it to him. The man said: "I make it for medicine." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "It is a disease, not a medicine."
