وَلِمُسْلِمٍ: عَنْ عَلِيٍّ - رضى الله عنه - -فِي قِصَّةِ اَلْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَقَبَةَ- { جَلَدَ اَلنَّبِيُّ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -أَرْبَعِينَ, وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ أَرْبَعِينَ, وَعُمَرُ ثَمَانِينَ, وَكُلٌّ سُنَّةٌ, وَهَذَا أَحَبُّ }
Muslim transmitted on the authority of 'Ali (RAA) concerning the story of al-Walid bin 'Uqbah that the Messenger of Allah inflicted forty lashes, Abu Bakr (RAA) forty lashes and 'Umar (RAA) eighty. All of them are in accordance with the Sunnah of the Prophet (ﷺ) but this one (the eighty lashes) is preferable to me.
عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ - رضى الله عنه - { أَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ - صلى الله عليه وسلم -أَتَى بِرَجُلٍ قَدْ شَرِبَ اَلْخَمْرَ, فَجَلَدَهُ بِجَرِيدَتَيْنِ نَحْوَ أَرْبَعِينَ. قَالَ: وَفَعَلَهُ أَبُو بَكْرٍ, فَلَمَّا كَانَ عُمَرُ اِسْتَشَارَ اَلنَّاسَ, فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اَلرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ: أَخَفَّ اَلْحُدُودِ ثَمَانُونَ, فَأَمَرَ بِهِ عُمَرُ } مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ . 1 .1 - صحيح. رواه البخاري (6773)، ومسلم (1706) واللفظ لمسلم. "تنبيه": الرواية: "أخف الحدود ثمانون" وليس كما ذكرها الحافظ، ولتوجيه ذلك انظر "الفتح".
Anas bin Malik (RAA) narrated, 'A man who had drunk wine was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he commanded that the man should be beaten (lashed). The man was given about forty lashes with two palm branches. Anas added, Abu Bakr (RAA) did the same, but when 'Umar (RAA) became the Caliph, he consulted the people and 'Abdur Rahman bin 'Auf said, "The mildest punishment for drinking is eighty (lashes).' So, 'Umar (RAA) gave his commands accordingly. Agreed upon.
Ab-Nasa'i also reported a similar hadith on the authenticity of Al-Harith bin Hatib. Ash-Shafi'i mentioned that the killing in the fifth time (of stealing) is abrogated.
