5760. It was narrated that Ibn Shubrumah said: "Talḥah said to the people of Al-Kūfah concerning Nabīdh: 'It is a test whereby a young man may benefit but an old man may be harmed.' If there was a wedding among them, Talḥah and Zubaid would offer milk and honey to drink. It was said to Talḥah: 'Why don't you offer Nabīdh?' He said: 'I would not like a Muslim to become intoxicated because of me.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ)
5757 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ ابْنِ شُبْرُمَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ طَلْحَةُ لِأَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ: «فِي النَّبِيذِ فِتْنَةٌ يَرْبُو فِيهَا الصَّغِيرُ، وَيَهْرَمُ فِيهَا الْكَبِيرُ»، قَالَ: وَكَانَ إِذَا كَانَ فِيهِمْ عُرْسٌ كَانَ طَلْحَةُ وَزُبَيْدٌ يَسْقِيَانِ اللَّبَنَ وَالْعَسَلَ، فَقِيلَ لِطَلْحَةَ: أَلَا تَسْقِيهِمُ النَّبِيذَ؟ قَالَ: «إِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَسْكَرَ مُسْلِمٍ فِي سَبَبِي»

1. 'Is a trial or test': The purpose is that the people of Kūfah have a great fixation on Nabīdh. Everyone drinks it, the little ones, the young and the old alike. 2. 'Become intoxicated': This is because Nabīdh could cause intoxication. One might probably not come to realize about its being intoxicating prior to drinking. One might realize after drinking that intoxication had already occurred in it. In this way, one could end up drinking an intoxicating beverage unknowingly.
