Summary of Sunan an-Nasai Hadith 5758
This final report is very short. Jarir said that Ibn Shubrumah would not drink anything except water and milk. The core topic is simple drinks. The narration does not explain his reason in this line, but it comes near reports about caution with nabidh, unknown drinks, and intoxication. It should not be made to say more than it says. It records what Jarir observed about Ibn Shubrumah's drinking habit. The lesson is modest: some people chose a very simple path in what they drank.
What we learn from this hadith
- Ibn Shubrumah was reported to drink only water and milk.
- The narration shows a simple personal habit in drinks.
- The text should not be expanded beyond what Jarir reported.
