Abu Burda reported,

The Prophet ﷺ sent his grandfather Abu Musa and Muaz to Yemen, saying, "Make things easy and do not make them difficult, give glad tidings and do not drive people away, and cooperate with one another."Abu Musa said, "Prophet of Allah, in our land there is a drink made from barley called mizr, and a drink made from honey called bita."He replied, "Every intoxicant is forbidden."So they set out, and Muaz said to Abu Musa, "How do you recite the Quran?"He answered, "Standing, sitting, and while riding my mount, and I recite it in portions throughout the day."Muaz said, "As for me, I sleep and I rise, and I count on reward for my sleep just as I count on reward for my standing in prayer."He pitched a tent, and the two would visit one another. Muaz visited Abu Musa and found a man bound in restraints.He asked, "What is this?"Abu Musa replied, "A Jew who embraced Islam and then apostatized."Muaz said, "I will surely strike off his neck."

Sahih

عن سعيد بن أبي بردة، عن أبيه، قال

بعث النبي ﷺ جده أبا موسى ومعاذا إلى اليمن فقال: يسرا ولا تعسرا، وبشرا ولا تنفرا، وتطاوعا فقال أبو موسى: يا نبي الله إن أرضنا بها شراب من الشعير: المزر، وشراب من العسل: البتع فقال: كل مسكر حرام فانطلقا فقال معاذ لأبي موسى: كيف تقرأ القرآن؟ قال: قائما وقاعدا، وعلى راحلتي، وأتفوقه تفوقا. قال: أما أنا فأنام وأقوم، فأحتسب نومتي كما أحتسب قومتي، وضرب فسطاطا، فجعلا يتزاوران، فزار معاذ أبا موسى، فإذا رجل موثق، فقال: ما هذا؟ فقال أبو موسى: يهودي أسلم ثم ارتد. فقال معاذ: لأضربن عنقه.
