5601. Al-Aswad bin Shaibân As-Sadûsî said: "I heard 'Atâ' being asked by a man: 'We travel and drinks are offered to us in the marketplaces, and we do not know what kind of vessels they were prepared in.' He said: 'Every intoxicant is unlawful.' He repeated the question and he said: 'Every intoxicant is unlawful.' He repeated the question and he said: 'It is as I have told you.'" (Sahîh)

Commentary
The objective of 'Atâ' was that a vessel does not render anything lawful or unlawful. If the beverage is intoxicating, in whichever vessel it is made, it would be unlawful. If it does not contain intoxication, then it is lawful, irrespective of which vessel it is made in.
