[3179] 347 - (1316) It was narrated that Bakr bin 'Abdullâh Al-Muzanî said: "I was sitting with Ibn 'Abbâs at the Ka'bah, and a Bedouin came to him and said: 'Why do I see the sons of your paternal uncle supplying honey and milk, and you supply Nabîdh? Is it because of poverty on your part, or because of miserliness?' Ibn 'Abbâs said: 'Praise be to Allâh, we are neither poor nor miserly. The Prophet ﷺ came on his mount, with Usâmah behind him, and asked for something to drink. We gave him a vessel of Nabîdh, and he drank it, and he gave his remaining to Usâmah to drink. And he said (to us): "You have done good and have done well. Carry on doing that." And we do not want to change what the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ commanded us to do.'"
