5660. It was narrated that Abû Hurairah said: "On the night on which he was taken on the Night Journey (Al-Isrâ'), two cups, of wine and milk, were brought to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. He looked at them and chose the milk. Jibrîl, peace be upon him, said to him: 'Praise be to Allâh Who has guided you to the Fitrah. If you have chosen the wine, your Ummah would have gone astray.'" (Sahîh)
٥٦٥٧ - أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: «أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةَ أُسْرِيَ بِهِ بِقَدَحَيْنِ مِنْ خَمْرٍ وَلَبَنٍ، فَنَظَرَ إِلَيْهِمَا فَأَخَذَ اللَّبَنَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ جِبْرِيلُ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ: الْحَمْدُ لِلهِ الَّذِي هَدَاكَ لِلْفِطْرَةِ، لَوْ أَخَذْتَ الْخَمْرَ غَوَتْ أُمَّتُكَ».

1. 'The night': This incident was during the last period of the Prophet's ﷺ Makkah life. In other words, at the time of the Ascension itself, an indication was made that wine would be made unlawful, although the command of prohibition descended later during the third year of Hijrah. 2. 'I took the milk': So to speak, from the beginning, Allâh's Messenger ﷺ detested wine. 3. 'The Fitrah', because milk is a natural food for man.
