...[do not approach] prayer while you are intoxicated." Then he said: "O Allah, clarify for us [the ruling] on khamr." So there was revealed: "Indeed, khamr, maysir (gambling), ansab (stone idols), and azlam (arrows for seeking luck) [are but defilement from the work of Satan]," until it reached: "So, will you not then desist?" 'Umar then said: "We have desisted; it wastes wealth and ruins the intellect."

He remained silent regarding them. Then this verse was revealed: 'Do not approach prayer while you are intoxicated.' It was said: 'Khamr has been prohibited.' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, we do not drink it near the time of prayer.' He remained silent regarding them. Then was revealed: 'O you who have believed, indeed, khamr, maysir, ansab, and azlam,' the verse. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said: 'Khamr has been prohibited.'"
