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.  

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

If I impose Hadd on anyone, and he (in course of punish ment) dies, I would not mind except in case of a drunkard. If he dies. I would pay indemnity for him because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has laid down no rule for it.  

مَا كُنْتُ أُقِيمُ عَلَى أَحَدٍ حَدًّا فَيَمُوتَ فِيهِ فَأَجِدَ مِنْهُ فِي نَفْسِي إِلاَّ صَاحِبَ الْخَمْرِ لأَنَّهُ إِنْ مَاتَ وَدَيْتُهُ لأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَسُنَّهُ  

If I carried out the hadd punishment on a man and he died, I would not feel upset, except in the case of khamr; if (such a man) died, I would pay the diyah (to his family) because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not prescribe it (did not specify a particular number of lashes).  

مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَقَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَدًّا فَمَاتَ فَأَجِدُ فِي نَفْسِي إِلا الْخَمْرَ فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ مَاتَ لَوَدَيْتُهُ لِأَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَسُنَّهُ  

ʿAli ؓ said: If I carried out the Hadd punishment on a man and he died, I would not feel upset, except in the case of one who drank khamr, if (such a man) died, I would pay the diyah (to his family) because the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not prescribe it (did not specify a particular number of lashes).  

عَلِيٌّ مَا كُنْتُ لِأُقِيمَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ حَدًّا فَيَمُوتَ فَأَجِدُ فِي نَفْسِي مِنْهُ إِلا صَاحِبَ الْخَمْرِ فَلَوْ مَاتَ وَدَيْتُهُ وَزَادَ سُفْيَانُ وَذَلِكَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ لَمْ يَسُنَّهُ  

" عَنْ عَلَىٍّ قَالَ: مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ أَقَمْتُ عَلَيْه حَدّا فَمَاتَ فأجِدُ في نَفْسِى مِنْهُ شَيْئًا إِلا صَاحِبَ الخَمْرِ، فَإِنَّهُ لَوْ مَاتَ لَوَدَيْتُهُ، لأن النَّبىَّ ﷺ لمْ يَسُنَّهُ، وَإنَّمَا نَحْنُ سَنَنَّاهُ ".
