It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) struck (as punishment) for drinking wine with sandals and palm stalks, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) too, during his caliphate, flogged with his own hand. Then, when the time of Sayyiduna Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him) came and people came close to the villages and the countryside (that is, it was feared that this crime would spread through much mixing), he mentioned this matter to the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them), whereupon Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) advised: 'Make it equal to the lightest of the prescribed punishments (that is, the punishment for qadhf, false accusation).' So Sayyiduna Umar al-Faruq (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed it at eighty (80) lashes."
