١٢٩٤ - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ عَبَّادٍ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ: «سُئِلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: أَيُتَّخَذُ الْخَمْرُ خَلًّا؟ قَالَ: لَا». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ.

Commentary
In view of the three A'immah and most of the scholars, it is not allowed to prepare vinegar from wine by some artificial methods, but if wine becomes vinegar by itself naturally it will be lawful and can be used. According to Imām Abū Ḥanīfah and Imām Awzā'ī and Laith preparing vinegar from wine by an artificial method is approved. We have not found any Sahīh narration in favor of this view.
