أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی یَعْقُوبُ بْنُ یَزِیدَ عَنْ أَبِی مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَنْصَارِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الْحَثَی فَقَالَ الْحَثَی حَرَامٌ وَ شَارِبُهُ کَشَارِبِ الْخَمْرِ.
17. My father رحمه الله said: it was narrated to me by Sa’d b. Abdillah who said it was narrated to me by Ya’qub b. Yazid from Abi Muhammad al-Ansari from Ibn Sinan from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام who said: The narrator asked Imam Ja’far Sadiq عليه السلام regarding alcohol (Khunsa). Imam عليه السلام replied, “Khunsa is prohibited and one who drinks it, is like one who drinks wine.”
