Buraiyon ki Maa | Mother of Evils
2. The word for alcohol, ‘Sharāb,’ is constituted of two words ‘Shar’ i.e. all evil and ‘Āb’ i.e. water. Hence, alcohol is such bad and abominable water which only contains evil in it and every evil thing has a destructive ending.
3. Alcohol is known as Khamr in Arabic. The letter ‘Khā’ represents ‘Khubš’ i.e. immorality, the letter ‘Mīm’ symbolises ‘Maqīt’ i.e. loathsome and the letter ‘Rā’ indicates refuted. Truly, the alcoholic is immoral, an enemy of Allah and is rejected. No doubt alcohol is the mother of evils and whoever drinks it, becomes rejected and deserves the wrath of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ. (Anwār-e-Jamāl-e-Mustafa, pp. 280)
Implementation
of prohibition
Regular drunkards when realised that alcohol causes the displeasure of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ and His Rasūl صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم instantly discarded alcoholism. They discharged it away in the streets, and for many days the odour of alcohol could be smelt from the surroundings but no one dared to drink it. According to one narration, the Blessed Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم got collected all the stocks of alcohol from the people of Madīnaĥ at one place and drained it away with his own blessed hands.
Sayyidunā ‘Abdullāĥ bin ‘Umar رَضِىَ
اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَـنْهُ quoted: One day I was present in the blessed court of
the Merciful Prophet
صَلَّى
اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم. Suddenly he صَلَّى
اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Whoever has any amount of alcohol available
with him should bring it to me!’ Upon listening to this order, all departed
towards their homes without delay. They brought all their stocks. Some brought
vessels while others fetched containers of alcohol. When everyone had brought what they had, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said, ‘Place all of this alcohol in the ‘field of
Baqī’ and let me
