" عَنْ عَبْد الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ الأَزْهَرِ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ الله ﷺ عَامَ الْفَتْحِ وَأَنَا غُلَامٌ شَابٌّ يَسأَلُ عَنْ مَنْزِلِ خَالِد بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ وَأُتِىَ بِشَارِب فَأمَرَهُمْ فَضَرَبُوهُ بِمَا فِى أَيْديِهمْ، فَمِنْهُمْ مَنَ ضَرَبَ بِالسَّوطِ وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ ضَرَبَ بِالنَّعْلِ، وَمِنْهُمْ مَنْ ضَرَبَ بِالْعَصَا، وَحَثَا عَلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ التُرَّابَ، فَلَمَّا كَانَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أُتِىَ بِشَارِبٍ فَسَألَ أصْحَابَهُ كَمْ ضَرَبَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ الَّذِى ضُرِبَ فَحرَّرَ أَرْبَعينِ، فَضَرَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَرْبَعِينَ، ثُمَّ كَتَبَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ إِلَى عُمَرَ أَنَّ النَّاسَ قَدِ انْهمكُوا فِى الشَّرَابِ وَتَحَاقَرُوا الْعُقُوبَةَ وَعِنْدَهُ الْمُهاجِرُونَ الأَوَّلُونَ، فَقَالُوا: نَرىَ أنُّ يُتَمَّمَ لَهُ الْحدُّ ثَمانِينِ، قَالَ: وقَالَ عَلِيٌّ: إِذَا شَرِبَ هذَى، وإذَا هَذَى افْتَرى فأَتَمَّ لَهُ الْحَدَّ".

"From 'Abd ar-Rahman ibn al-Azhar who said: I saw the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on the day of the Conquest, while I was a young lad, asking about the house of Khalid ibn al-Walid. A drinker was brought, and he ordered them, so they struck him with whatever was in their hands. Some struck with a whip, some struck with a sandal, and some struck with a staff, and the Prophet ﷺ threw dust over him. When Abu Bakr was in power, a drinker was brought, and he asked his companions how many times the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had struck the one who was struck. They determined forty, so Abu Bakr struck forty. Then Khalid ibn al-Walid wrote to 'Umar that the people had indulged in drinking and had belittled the punishment. The first Muhajirun were with him, and they said: 'We think the prescribed punishment should be completed to eighty.' He said: 'and 'Ali said: When he drinks, he babbles, and when he babbles, he slanders. So complete the prescribed punishment for him.'"
