Hadith 12139

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى ، وَأَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، قَالَا : حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ ، حَدَّثَنَا قَتَادَةُ ، وَقَالَ أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ ، قَالَ : " جَلَدَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْخَمْرِ بِالْجَرِيدِ وَالنِّعَالِ " ، وَجَلَدَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ ، قَالَ يَحْيَى فِي حَدِيثِهِ أَرْبَعِينَ : فَلَمَّا كَانَ عُمَرُ ودَنَا النَّاسُ مِنَ الرِّيفِ وَالْقُرَى ، قَالَ لِأَصْحَابِهِ : مَا تَرَوْنَ ؟ ، فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ : اجْعَلْهَا كَأَخَفِّ الْحُدُودِ ، فَجَلَدَ عُمَرُ ثَمَانِينَ .
It is narrated from Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) punished for drinking alcohol with branches and shoes. Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) gave (forty lashes), but when during the caliphate of Hazrat Umar Farooq (may Allah be pleased with him) people came close to various cities and towns (and their influences began to appear among them), Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked his companions, "What is your opinion regarding this?" Hazrat Abdur Rahman bin Auf (may Allah be pleased with him) gave the opinion that the punishment should be fixed equal to the lowest prescribed limit, so Hazrat Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed the punishment for drinking alcohol at eighty lashes.
