Musnad Ahmad 2921

Husain bin ‘Abdullah bin 'Ubaidullah bin ‘Abbas and Dawood bin 'Ali bin 'Abdullah bin 'Abbas narrated, One of them adding to the report of his companion, that a man called out to Ibn 'Abbas, when the people were around him: Are you following the Sunnah with regard to this nabeedh, or is it easier for you than milk and honey? Ibn 'Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: The Prophet (ﷺ) came to 'Abbas and said: “Give us something to drink." He said: This nabeedh is something that has been steeped and soaked, shouldn't we give you milk or honey? He said: "Give us what you give to others.” So two skins filled with nabeedh were brought to the Prophet (ﷺ), who had his Companions of the Muhajireen and Ansar with him. When the Prophet (ﷺ) drank, he stopped drinking before his thirst was quenched. He raised his head and said: "You have done well. This is what you should do.” Ibn ‘Abbas (رضي الله عنه) said: The approval of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was dearer to me than seeing these mountain passes flowing with milk and honey.
