5603. It was narrated that 'Abdul-Mâlik bin Aṭ-Ṭufail Al-Jazarî said: "Umar bin 'Abdul-Azîz wrote to us, saying: 'Do not drink the
thickened juice of grapes (obtained by boiling it down) until two-third of it has gone and one-third is left. And every intoxicant is unlawful.”

Commentary
When the juice of grapes is cooked on a fire, until it turns into a paste, it is called Tila. When this juice is cooked until the quantity of the two-third has evaporated, the possibility of intoxication does not remain in it. Hence, it is permissible to drink this thick paste-like liquid. But if it evaporates in less quantity, then the possibility of intoxication remains. It is, therefore, not permissible to drink.
