hadith 125
Imam al-Rida (AS) said, ‘Allah forbade alcohol due the corruption that accompanies it, and due to the way in which it alters the drinkers reason, and how it encourages them to deny Allah, Mighty and Exalted, and to slander Him and His messenger, and for all the other accompaniments of corruption and murder.
الإمامُ الرِّضا (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : حَرّمَ اللّهُ الخَمرَ لِما فيها مِن الفَسادِ ، ومِن تَغْييرِها عُقولَ شارِبِيها ، وحَمْلِها إيّاهُم على إنْكارِ اللّهِ عزّوجلّ ، والفِرْيَةِ علَيهِ وعلى رُسُلِهِ ، وسائرِ ما يكونُ مِنهُم مِن الفَسادِ والقَتلِ .
