5757. It was narrated from Sa'eed bin 'Abdur-Raḥmān bin Abza that his father said: "I asked Ubayy bin Ka'b about Nabīdh, and he said: 'Drink water, drink honey, drink Sawīq (barley gruel) and drink milk that you have been nourished with since childhood.' I repeated the question and he said: 'Is it wine you want? Is it wine you want?'" (Da'if)
5754 - أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدٌ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ كُهَيْلٍ، عَنْ ذَرِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبْزَى، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: سَأَلْتُ أُبَيَّ بْنَ كَعْبٍ عَنِ النَّبِيذِ، فَقَالَ: «اشْرَبِ الْمَاءَ، وَاشْرَبِ الْعَسَلَ، وَاشْرَبِ السَّوِيقَ، وَاشْرَبِ اللَّبَنَ الَّذِي نُجِعْتَ بِهِ» فَعَاوَدْتُهُ فَقَالَ: «الْخَمْرَ تُرِيدُ الْخَمْرَ تُرِيدُ»

The objective of Ubayy bin Ka'b was that the Nabīdh comes of all sorts; intoxicating as well as plain. If I tell you that you should drink Nabīdh, then I am afraid lest you end up drinking intoxicating Nabīdh, because slight intoxication is often not felt.
