Selling Juice and Wine

12- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ حَنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي كَهْمَسٍ قَالَ سَأَلَ رَجُلٌ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) عَنِ الْعَصِيرِ فَقَالَ لِي كَرْمٌ وَأَنَا أَعْصِرُهُ كُلَّ سَنَةٍ وَأَجْعَلُهُ فِي الدِّنَانِ وَأَبِيعُهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَغْلِيَ قَالَ لا بَأْسَ بِهِ فَإِنْ غَلَى فَلا يَحِلُّ بَيْعُهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ هُوَ ذَا نَحْنُ نَبِيعُ تَمْرَنَا مِمَّنْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُ يَصْنَعُهُ خَمْراً.
12. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Isma’il ibn Bazi’ from Hanan from abu Kahmas who has said the following: “A man once asked abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, about juice saying, ‘I have a vineyard. ‘Every year I squeeze juice and keep it in a large container, then sell it before it boils. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is not harmful but if it boils then selling is not lawful.’ He (the Imam) then said, ‘We sell our dates knowing that they make wine out of it.’”
