Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5720
This narration mentions Abu Ad-Darda and his practice with a cooked drink. He used to drink it when two-thirds had gone and one-third was left. The main point is simple: the drink was not treated like ordinary fresh juice after cooking. The report shows a clear limit connected to thickened grape juice or cooked juice. The text does not give a long ruling for every drink. It only tells us the practice reported from Abu Ad-Darda: he drank it after it had reduced to one-third.
What we learn from this hadith
- Abu Ad-Darda was careful about the state of the drink before drinking it.
- The narration highlights the measure of two-thirds gone and one-third left.
- Cooked drinks were treated with care when their condition changed.
