Muhammad bin al-Muthna - al-Zaman محمد بن المثنى أبو موسى - الزمن · The Book of Drinks

"When Khamr was forbidden, their drink was (made from) unripe dates and dried dates."

"Strong drink is unlawful, and a 'goodly provision' (is lawful)."

"I heard 'Umar, may Allah be pleased with him, delivering a Khutbah on the Minbar of Al-Madinah and he said: 'O people, on the day that the prohibition of Khamr was revealed, it was made from five things: From grapes, dates, honey, wheat and barley. Khamr is that which overcomes the mind.'"

"The Messenger of Allah forbade soaking (fruits) in earthenware jars."

A man from (the tribe of) Jaishan, who are from Yemen, came and asked the Messenger of Allah said: "Every intoxicant is unlawful. Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, has promised the one who drinks intoxicants that He will give him to drink from the mud of Khibal." They said: "O Messenger of Allah, what is the mud of Khibal?" He said: "The sweat of the people of Hell," or he said: "The juice of the people of Hell."
