| Chapter: 2 The Statement of Allah |
| 523 Narrated Ibn `Abbas: “Once a delegation of `Abdul Qais came to Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) and said, “We belong to such and such branch of the tribe of Rabi’ah and we can only come to you in the sacred months. Order us to do something good so that we may take it from you and also invite to it those whom we have left behind (at home).” So he said, “I order you to do four things and forbid you from four things: To believe in Allah” – and then he explained it to them “to testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that I am Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him), to establish the prayers (at the stated times), to pay the Zakat (obligatory charity), to hand me the Khumus (fifth) if you acquire spoils of war. And I forbid from (using) Dubba, Hantam, Muqaiyyar, and Naqir (all these were utensils used for the preparation of alcoholic drinks). |
