Dari used to bring the Messenger of Allah ﷺ a large skin of wine as a gift every year. In the year wine was prohibited, he came once again with a skin of it. When the Prophet of Allah ﷺ saw him, he smiled and said, "Are you aware that it has been forbidden since you last came?"Dari asked, "Messenger of Allah, may I not sell it and benefit from its price?"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ replied, "May Allah curse the Jews. They were forbidden the fat of cattle and sheep, so they melted it down, sold it as something else, and consumed its price. Wine is forbidden, and its price is forbidden. Wine is forbidden, and its price is forbidden. Wine is forbidden, and its price is forbidden."
أن الداري كان يهدي لرسول الله ﷺ كل عام راوية خمر، فلما كان عام حرمت جاء براوية، فلما نظر إليه نبي الله ﷺ ضحك، قال: هل شعرت أنها قد حرمت بعدك؟ قال: يا رسول الله، أفلا أبيعها فانتفع بثمنها؟ فقال رسول الله ﷺ: لعن الله اليهود، انطلقوا إلى ما حرم عليهم من شحوم البقر والغنم، فأذابوه، فجعلوه ثمنا له، فباعوا به ما يأكلون، وإن الخمر حرام، وثمنها حرام، وإن الخمر حرام، وثمنها حرام، وإن الخمر حرام، وثمنها حرام.
Ahmad narrated it (17995) from Rawh, he said, Abdul-Hameed bin Bahram told us, he said, I heard Shahr bin Hawshab say, Abdul-Rahman bin Ghanm told me, and he related it. Its chain of transmission is hasan, because of the discussion concerning Shahr bin Hawshab. Imam Ahmad said, "How good his hadith is." He deemed him trustworthy, and also said, "There is no harm in him." Bukhari said, "His hadith is hasan," and affirmed his standing. Ibn Main said, "He is trustworthy." He also said, "He is firmly established." Shubah and others considered him daif, but Ibn Qattan said, "I have not heard any proof from those who weakened him." Someone like him has his hadith deemed hasan so long as there is nothing objectionable in it. Abdul-Hameed bin Bahram narrated it from him, and he was among the most firmly established of his companions. This hadith of his is corroborated by what preceded, except that his statement, "that Dari used to give a skin of wine as a gift to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ every year," if this refers to the companion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, as in the previous hadith, then it should be noted that he was neither Thaqafi nor Dawsi, but was a Christian, who came to Madinah and accepted Islam, and the Prophet ﷺ told him the story of Jassasah and Dajjal. All of this requires careful reflection.Haythami said in Majma (4/88), "Ahmad narrated it this way from Ibn Ghanm, that Dari... and Shahr is in it, and his hadith is hasan, though there is some discussion about him. Tabarani narrated it in Kabir from Abdul-Rahman bin Ghanm, from Tamim Dari, that he used to give as a gift, and he related something similar in brief, except that he said, 'Its purchase and its price are forbidden.' Its chain of transmission is connected and hasan." End of quote.This hadith has other chains of transmission besides the one I have mentioned, but the one I mentioned is the most sahih of them.
