Narrated Uqbah Ibn Amir: AbulHaytham quoted Dukhayn; the scribe of Uqbah Ibn Amir; saying: We had some neighbours who used to drink wine. I forbade them; but they did not stop. I then said to Uqbah Ibn Amir: These neighbours of ours drink wine; and I tried to prevent them but they did not stop; and I am going to call the police about them. He said: Leave them. I again came to Uqbah Ibn Amir and said: Our neighbours have refused to refrain from drinking wine; and I am going to call the police for them. He said: Woe to thee! Leave them alone. I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: he then mentioned the tradition to the same effect as recorded above on the authority of the narrator Muslim. Abu Dawud said: In this version Hashim Bin AlQasim said on the authority of Laith: Do not do it; but preach them and threaten them.
