Sulaiman bin Abi Sulaiman سليمان بن أبي سليمان · The Book of Drinks

The Prophet was asked about mead and he said: "Every drink that intoxicates is unlawful." And mead is a drink made of honey.

"The Prophet forbade to me to use gold rings, Al-Qassi, Al-Mitharah and Al-Ji'ah (a barley drink)."

"Forbid to us, O Commander of the Believers! What the Messenger of Allah forbade me from using Ad-Dubba' and Al-Hantam."

"Khamr was forbidden in and of itself, in small or large amounts, as was every kind of intoxicating drink."

"I heard Anas bin Malik say: 'The Shaitan disputed with Nuh, peace be upon him, concerning the grapevine. One said: "This is for me," and the other said: "This is for me." Then they agreed that Nuh would have one-third and the Shaitan would have two-thirds.'"
