Hadith 14:88

‘Abdallah b. ‘Amr told that the Prophet forbade wine, maisir , the kuba and ghubaira ,* saying, “Every intoxicant is prohibited.” Abd Dawud transmitted it. *This is a comprehensive tradition not exclusively dealing with intoxicants, although the Prophet’s words might suggest that it does. Maisir was a game of chance and the kuba was a kind of drum wide at the ends and narrow in the middle which was looked on with disapproval. The parts which refer to intoxicants are the wine ( khamr ) and the ghubaira' which was an intoxicant made by Abyssinians from millet.

وَعَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو: أَنَّ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَهَى عَنْ الْخَمْرِ وَالْمَيْسِرِ وَالْكُوبَةِ وَالْغُبَيْرَاءِ وَقَالَ: «كُلُّ مُسْكِرٍ حَرَامٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد
