Narrated Anas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):




                                                    Narrated Anas (Radi-Allahu 'anhu):

The alcoholic drink which was spilled was Al-Fadikh. I used to offer
alcoholic drinks to the people at the residence of Abu Talha. Then the
order of prohibiting Alcoholic drinks was revealed, and the Prophet
(Sallallahu 'Alaihi Wa Sallam) ordered somebody to announce that: Abu Talha
said to me, "Go out and see what this voice (this announcement ) is." I
went out and (on coming back) said, "This is somebody announcing that
alcoholic beverages have been prohibited." Abu Talha said to me, "Go and
spill it (i.e. the wine)," Then it (alcoholic drinks) was seen flowing
through the streets of Medina. At that time the wine was Al-Fadikh. The
people said, "Some people (Muslims) were killed (during the battle of Uhud)
while wine was in their stomachs." So Allah revealed: "On those who believe
and do good deeds there is no blame for what they ate (in the past)."
