Hudhayn bin Mundhir Qashi narrated that I was present with Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) when Walid bin Uqbah (the half-brother of Sayyiduna Uthman, may Allah be pleased with him) was brought. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave forty lashes to the one who drank alcohol, and Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) also gave forty lashes, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) gave eighty lashes, and all are Sunnah.
