Hadith 791
۞
1. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakil who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Ja’far who said it was narrated to me by Musa b. ’Imran from al-Hassan b. Zayd from Ali b. Abi Hamzah from Abi Basir who said
“A person who drinks alcohol excessively is like an idol worshipper and the enemy of the progeny of Muhammad is worse than him.” The narrator asked, “May I be sacrificed for you, why is he worse than an idol worshipper?” Imam (a.s.) replied, “The intercession of an alcoholic is possible at some point but even if all the creatures of the earth and the heavens unite to intercede for an enemy of Ahle Bayt, their intercession will not be accepted.”
حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُوسَی بْنُ عِمْرَانَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ زَیْدٍ عَنْ عَلِیِّ بْنِ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع مُدْمِنُ الْخَمْرِ کَعَابِدِ الْوَثَنِ وَ النَّاصِبُ لآِلِ مُحَمَّدٍ شَرٌّ مِنْهُ قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاکَ وَ مَنْ أَشَرُّ مِنْ عَابِدِ الْوَثَنِ فَقَالَ إِنَّ شَارِبَ الْخَمْرِ تُدْرِکُهُ الشَّفَاعَهُ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَهِ وَ إِنَّ النَّاصِبَ لَوْ شَفَعَ فِیهِ أَهْلُ السَّمَاوَاتِ وَ الْأَرْضِ لَمْ یُشَفَّعُوا.
