English Translation
Ishaq ibn Ibrahim narrated from Abd al-Razzaq, from Ibn Uyaynah, from al-A'mash, from Zayd ibn Wahb who said: It was said to Ibn Mas'ud: 'Would you be interested in (witnessing against) al-Walid ibn Uqbah, whose beard is dripping with wine?' He said: 'We have been forbidden from spying. But if it becomes apparent to us, we will enforce the punishment upon him.'
