English translation

3670. It was narrated from 'Amr, from 'Umar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb, he said: "Before the prohibition of Khamr was revealed, 'Umar supplicated: 'O Allāh, give us a clear ruling on Khamr,' then the Verse which is in (Sūrat) Al-Baqarah was revealed: They ask you concerning Khamr and gambling. Say: "In them is a great sin..."[1] 'Umar was summoned, and it was recited to him. He said: 'O Allāh, give us a clear ruling on Khamr,' and the Verse which is in (Sūrat An-Nisā) was revealed: O you who believe! Approach not Salāt (the prayer) while you are intoxicated...[2] When the Iqāmah for prayer was called, the caller of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would call out: 'Do not approach the prayer while intoxicated.' 'Umar was summoned, and it was recited to him. He said: 'O Allāh, give us a clear ruling on Khamr,' and this Verse was revealed: So, will you not then abstain?'[3] (Da'if)

3670 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبَّادُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْخُتَّلِيُّ، أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، قَالَ: لَمَّا نَزَلَ تَحْرِيمُ الْخَمْرِ قَالَ عُمَرُ: اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ بَيَانًا شِفَاءً، فَنَزَلَتِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي فِي الْبَقَرَةِ {يَسْأَلُونَكَ عَنِ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ قُلْ فِيهِمَا إِثْمٌ كَبِيرٌ} [البقرة: 219] الْآيَةَ، قَالَ: فَدُعِيَ عُمَرُ فَقُرِئَتْ عَلَيْهِ، قَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ بَيَانًا شِفَاءً، فَنَزَلَتِ الْآيَةُ الَّتِي فِي النِّسَاءِ {يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا لَا تَقْرَبُوا الصَّلَاةَ وَأَنْتُمْ سُكَارَى} [النساء: 43] فَكَانَ مُنَادِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا أُقِيمَتِ الصَّلَاةُ يُنَادِي: «أَلَا لَا يَقْرَبَنَّ الصَّلَاةَ سَكْرَانُ»، فَدُعِيَ عُمَرُ فَقُرِئَتْ عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ: اللَّهُمَّ بَيِّنْ لَنَا فِي الْخَمْرِ بَيَانًا شِفَاءً، فَنَزَلَتْ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُنْتَهُونَ} [المائدة: 91] قَالَ عُمَرُ: انْتَهَيْنَا
