حَدَّثَنَا بِذَلِكَ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ، عَنْ أَبِي حَيَّانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، إِنَّ مِنَ الْحِنْطَةِ خَمْرًا بِهَذَا . وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُهَاجِرٍ . وَقَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْمَدِينِيِّ قَالَ يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ لَمْ يَكُنْ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ مُهَاجِرٍ بِالْقَوِيِّ فِي الْحَدِيثِ . وَقَدْ رُوِيَ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ أَيْضًا عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ .
'Umar bin Al-Khattab Narrated from:
Indeed Khamr Comes From Wheat. [After Mentioning This, He Said:] And This Is More Correct Than The Narration Of Ibrahim Bin Muhajir (No. 1872). 'Ali Bin Al-Madini Said: "Yahya Bin Sa'Eed Said: 'Ibrahim Bin Al-Muhajir Is Not Strong [In Hadith].'" And It Has Also Been Reported Through Other Routes From Ash-Sha'Bi, From An-Nu'Man Bin Bashir.
