The Prophet (ﷺ) sent my father and Mu`adh bin Jabal to Yemen and said (to them), "Make things easy for
the people and do not put hurdles in their way, and give them glad tiding, and don't let them have
aversion (i.e. to make people to hate good deeds) and you both should work in cooperation and mutual
understanding" Abu Musa said to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), "In our country a special alcoholic drink called Al-
Bit', is prepared (for drinking)." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Every intoxicant is prohibited. "
