4620. Narrated Anas رضي الله عنه: The alcoholic drink which was spilled was Al-Fadikh. I used to offer alcoholic drinks to the people at the residence of Abū Ṭalha. Then the order of prohibition of alcoholic drinks was revealed, and the Prophet ﷺ ordered somebody to announce that. Abū Ṭalha 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." Abū Ṭalha said to me, "Go and spill it (i.e., the wine)." Then it (alcoholic drinks) was seen flowing through the streets of Al-Madīna. At that time, the wine was Al-Fadikh. Some people said, "Few persons (Muslims) were killed (during the battle of Uhud) while wine was in their stomachs.” So Allāh revealed: “Those who believe and do righteous good deeds there is no sin on them for what they ate (in the past)...” (V.5:93)
