The Reason for the Prohibition of Wine According to the Hanafi School

Question
What is the difference in the term 'wine' according to the Hanafi school compared to other schools? What is the reason for this?
Answer
I say, and with God's help: There is no disagreement regarding the term "wine"; rather, the disagreement is about the reason for wine, whether it is intoxication or the property of being wine. According to the Hanafi school, it is the property of being wine; therefore, both a little and a lot of it are prohibited. The details can be found in the books of jurisprudence, and God knows best.
