Talq reported that some people from Yemen came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and he taught them the prayer, the prophetic practices, and the obligatory duties.They said, "Messenger of Allah, we have a drink that we make from wheat and barley."The Prophet ﷺ asked, "Is it ghubayra?"They replied, "Yes."He said, "Do not consume it."Two days later, they mentioned it to him again, and he asked, "Is it ghubayra?"They replied, "Yes."He said, "Do not consume it."When they were about to depart, they asked him about it once more, and he asked, "Is it ghubayra?"They replied, "Yes."He said, "Then do not consume it."
أن ناسا من أهل اليمن قدمو اعلى رسول الله ﷺ، فعلمهم الصلاة والسنن والفرائض قالوا: يا رسول الله إن لنا شرابا نصنعه من القمح والشعير فقال ﷺ: الغبيراء؟ قالوا: نعم قال: لا تطعموه فلما كان بعد يومين ذكر وهما له أيضا فقال: الغبيراء؟ قالوا: نعم قال: لا تطعموه فلما أرادوا أن ينطلقوا سألوه عنه فقال: الغبيراء؟ قالوا نعم قال: فلا تطعموه.
Ibn Hibban (5367) narrated it from Ibn Qutayba, who said, Yazid bin Mawhab narrated to us, Ibn Wahb narrated to us, Amr bin Harith informed me, that Abu Samh told him, that Umar bin Hakam told him, from Umm Habiba, and he related it. Its chain is hasan due to the discussion regarding Abu Samh, whose name is Darraj bin Saman al-Misri, about whom there is disagreement, except that his narrations are weakened when he narrates from Abu Haytham, and graded hasan otherwise. Ibn Qutayba is Muhammad bin Hasan bin Qutayba al-Asqalani. Yazid bin Mawhab is attributed to his distant grandfather, and he is Yazid bin Khalid bin Yazid bin Abdullah bin Mawhab al-Hamdani, the ascetic.Bayhaqi (8/292) narrated it through another route from Ibn Wahb, in the same manner.Ahmad (27407), Abu Yaala (7147), and Tabarani in al-Kabir (23/242, 246) narrated it through the route of Ibn Lahia, who said, Darraj narrated to us, in the same manner, and he added at the end, "They said, 'They will not give it up,'" he said, "Whoever does not give it up, strike his neck." This addition is either shadhdh or munkar, and Ibn Lahia narrated it alone, and he is weak in memory.As for his statement, "al-Ghubayra," with the ghayn vocalized as u, it is a type of wine made from millet, and it is one of the wines of the Abyssinians. Malik said, I asked Zayd bin Aslam about it, and he said, "Iskarikah," and in another wording, it is "as-Sukurkah." Ashribah (10).
