1865. Jābir bin ‘Abdullāh narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: “Whatever a lot of it intoxicates, a little of it is unlawful.” (Hasan) He said: There are narrations on this topic from Sa’d, ‘Aishah, ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr, Ibn ‘Umar, and Khawwāt bin Jubair. [Abū ‘Eisā said:] This Ḥadīth is Ḥasan Gharīb as a narration of Jābir.
١٨٦٥ - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، (ح) وَحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ، عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي الْفُرَاتِ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَا أَسْكَرَ كَثِيرُهُ فَقَلِيلُهُ حَرَامٌ» وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ، وَعَائِشَةَ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَخَوَّاتِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ غَرِيبٌ. مِنْ حَدِيثِ جَابِرٍ.

The purport of the Hadith determines that, if a great quantity of a beverage has the capacity to intoxicate a person, it is unlawful to consume even a small quantity of it. This is the view held by the vast majority of the scholars of religion.
