While we were in the city of Hims (in Syria), Ibn Mas`ud recited Surat Yusuf. A man said to him), "Itwas not revealed in this way." Then Ibn Mas`ud said, "I recited it in this way before Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)and he confirmed my recitation by saying, 'Well done!' " Ibn Mas`ud detected the smell of wine fromthe man's mouth, so he said to him, "Aren't you ashamed of telling a lie about Allah's Book and (alongwith this) you drink alcoholic liquors too?" Then he lashed him according to the law.
