29.8 Hadd punishment for drinking alcohol

٢٩۔٨ باب حَدِّ الْخَمْرِ

(1108) bukhari:6776Muslim > Hishām > Qatādah > Anas

The Prophet ﷺ lashed a drunk with dateleaf stalks and shoes. And Abu Bakr gave a drunk forty lashes.  

(١١٠٨) البخاري:٦٧٧٦حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ

جَلَدَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي الْخَمْرِ بِالْجَرِيدِ وَالنِّعَالِ وَجَلَدَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَرْبَعِينَ  

(1109) bukhari:6778ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAbd al-Wahhāb > Khālid b. al-Ḥārith > Sufyān > Abū Ḥaṣīn > ʿUmayr b. Saʿīd al-Nakhaʿī > ʿAlī b. Abū Ṭālib

I would not feel sorry for one who dies because of receiving a legal punishment, except the drunk, for if he should die (when being punished), I would give blood money to his family because no fixed punishment has been ordered by Messenger of Allah ﷺ for the drunk.  

(١١٠٩) البخاري:٦٧٧٨حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو حَصِينٍ سَمِعْتُ عُمَيْرَ بْنَ سَعِيدٍ النَّخَعِيَّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَلِيَّ بْنَ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ قَالَ

مَا كُنْتُ لأُقِيمَ حَدًّا عَلَى أَحَدٍ فَيَمُوتَ فَأَجِدَ فِي نَفْسِي إِلاَّ صَاحِبَ الْخَمْرِ فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ مَاتَ وَدَيْتُهُ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَسُنَّهُ
