ذِكْرُ وَصْفِ ضَرْبِ الْحَدِّ الَّذِي كَانَ فِي أَيَّامِ الْمُصْطَفَى ﷺ

ibnhibban:4448al-Faḍl b. al-Ḥubāb > Musaddad > Yaḥyá > Hishām > Qatādah > Anas b. Mālik

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ was lashed with a whip and sandals as punishment. When Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) became the caliph, he lashed someone forty times. When Umar approached the people of the countryside and villages, his companions mentioned this to him. So Abdur Rahman said, 'Make it the lightest form of punishment'."  

ابن حبّان:٤٤٤٨أَخْبَرَنَا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ عَنْ يَحْيَى عَنْ هِشَامٍ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ

«أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ جَلَدَ فِي الْحَدِّ بِالْجَرِيدِ وَالنِّعَالِ» فَلَمَّا كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ جَلَدَ أَرْبَعِينَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ عُمَرُ دَنَا النَّاسُ مِنَ الرِّيفِ وَالْقُرَى فَذُكِرَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ «اجْعَلْهَا كَأَخَفِّ الْحُدُودِ»

My opinion is that you fix it as the mildest punishment. Then 'Umar inflicted eighty stripes.
