Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5707

This short report focuses on Nabidh that had turned to vinegar. Utbah bin Farqad said that the Nabidh Umar bin Al-Khattab used to drink had become vinegar. The core topic is vinegar, or a drink whose state has changed. The text is brief, so the explanation should stay brief in meaning too. It does not give a full discussion of all drinks. It simply tells us what kind of Nabidh Umar was drinking in that report: it had been made vinegar-like. Users may search for Nabidh turned vinegar hadith when trying to understand these narrations together. The safe reading is to keep the wording exact and not add more than the report says.
