that when Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) sent him and Mu`adh bin Jabal to Yemen, he said to them, "Facilitate things
for the people (treat the people in the most agreeable way), and do not make things difficult for them,
and give them glad tidings, and let them not have aversion (i.e. to make the people hate good deeds)
and you should both work in cooperation and mutual understanding, obey each other." Abu Musa
said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! We are in a land in which a drink named Al Bit' is prepared from honey, and
another drink named Al-Mizr is prepared from barley." On that, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "All intoxicants
(i.e. all alcoholic drinks) are prohibited."

Whenever Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) was given the choice of one of two matters he would choose the easier of
the two as long as it was not sinful to do so, but if it was sinful, he would not approach it. Allah's
Apostle never took revenge over anybody for his own sake but (he did) only when Allah's legal
bindings were outraged, in which case he would take revenge for Allah's sake." (See Hadith No. 760.
