أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، (يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْمُبَارَكِ) عَنْ يُونُسَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ عُثْمَانَ

يَقُولُ اجْتَنِبُوا الْخَمْرَ فَإِنَّهَا أُمُّ الْخَبَائِثِ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ رَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ خَلَا قَبْلَكُمْ يَتَعَبَّدُ وَيَعْتَزِلُ النَّاسَ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ قَالَ فَاجْتَنِبُوا الْخَمْرَ فَإِنَّهُ وَاللَّهِ لَا يَجْتَمِعُ وَالإِيمَانُ أَبَدًا إِلاَّ يُوشِكُ أَحَدُهُمَا أَنْ يُخْرِجَ صَاحِبَهُ

His father said: “I heard Uthman say: ‘Avoid Khamr for it is the mother of all evils. There was a man among those who came before you who was a devoted worshipper and used to stay away from people.’” And he mentioned something similar. He said: “Avoid Khamr for, by Allah, it can never coexist with Faith, but soon one of them will expel the other.”

সুওয়ায়দ (রহঃ) ... উসমান (রাঃ) বলতেন, তোমরা মদ পরিত্যাগ কর। কেননা এটাই সকল অনিষ্টের মূল। তোমাদের পূর্ব যুগে এক ব্যক্তি ছিল। সে সর্বদা ইবাদত-বন্দেগীতে লিপ্ত থাকত এবং লোক সংশ্রব হতে দূরে থাকত। এরপর পূর্বোক্ত ঘটনা বর্ণনা করে বললেনঃ তোমরা মদ পরিত্যাগ কর; কেননা, আল্লাহর শপথ! মদ এবং ঈমান কখনো সহাবস্থান করে না; বরং একটি অপরটিকে বের করে দেয়।
