Hadith #152
Arabic Text
حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُعَزِّرُ فِي الْخَمْرِ بِالنِّعَالِ وَالْجَرِيدِ قَالَ ثُمَّ ضَرَبَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَرْب
َعِينَ فَلَمَّا كَانَ زَمَنُ عُمَرَ وَدَنَا النَّاسُ مِنْ الرِّيفِ وَالْقُرَى اسْتَشَارَ فِي ذَلِكَ النَّاسَ وَفَشَا ذَلِكَ فِي النَّاسِ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ أَرَى أَنْ تَجْعَلَهُ كَأَخَفِّ الْحُدُودِ فَضَرَبَ عُمَرُ ثَمَانِينَ

English Translation
Waki' narrated to us, Hisham narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Anas (رضي الله عنه) who said: the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to punish for drinking wine with sandals and palm branches. Then Abu Bakr (رضي الله عنه) gave forty lashes. When it was the time of 'Umar (رضي الله عنه) and people moved to the rural areas and countryside, he consulted his companions and 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf suggested the lightest prescribed punishment, which is eighty lashes. So 'Umar ordered it.
