It was narrated that Ibn Shubrumah said:
"Talhah said to the people of Al-Kufah concerning Nabidh: 'It is a test whereby a young man may benefit but an old man may be harmed.' If there was a wedding among them, Talhah and Zubaid would offer milk and honey to drink. It was said to Talhah: 'Why don't you offer Nabidh?' He said: 'I would not like a Muslim to become intoxicated because of me.'"
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شُبْرُمَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ طَلْحَةُ لأَهْلِ الْكُوفَةِ فِي النَّبِيذِ فِتْنَةٌ يَرْبُو فِيهَا الصَّغِيرُ وَيَهْرَمُ فِيهَا الْكَبِيرُ قَالَ وَكَانَ إِذَا كَانَ فِيهِمْ عُرْسٌ كَانَ طَلْحَةُ وَزُبَيْرٌ يَسْقِيَانِ اللَّبَنَ وَالْعَسَلَ . فَقِيلَ لِطَلْحَةَ أَلاَ تَسْقِيهِمُ النَّبِيذَ قَالَ إِنِّي أَكْرَهُ أَنْ يَسْكَرَ مُسْلِمٌ فِي سَبَبِي .
