Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5633
This hadith about drinking vessels is narrated from Abu Sa'eed Al-Khudri. It states that the Messenger of Allah forbade drinking from green pitchers, gourds, and vessels carved from wood. The wording is slightly different from some reports that speak about soaking fruits. Here, the translation says drinking from these vessels. That detail matters. For readers searching for the green pitcher hadith or Nabidh vessels hadith, this narration gives a clear list: Al-Hantam, Ad-Dubba', and An-Naqir. A careful explanation should not replace those names with a wider rule that the text itself does not state. This keeps the reader tied to the hadith text itself.
What we learn from this hadith
- Abu Sa'eed reports the prohibition of drinking from three types of vessels.
- The listed vessels are green pitchers, gourds, and vessels carved from wood.
- This narration uses the wording of drinking, not only soaking.
- The explanation should preserve the difference in wording.
