حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدُ بْنُ مُسَرْهَدٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيل الْمَعْنَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَا:‏‏‏‏ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ الْمُخْتَارِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الدَّانَاجُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنِي حُضَيْنُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ الرَّقَاشِيُّ هُوَ أَبُو سَاسَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ شَهِدْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ وَأُتِيَ بِالْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَشَهِدَ عَلَيْهِ حُمْرَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَرَجُلٌ آخَرُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَشَهِدَ أَحَدُهُمَا أَنَّهُ رَآهُ شَرِبَهَا يَعْنِي الْخَمْرَ وَشَهِدَ الْآخَرُ أَنَّهُ رَآهُ يَتَقَيَّأُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّهُ لَمْ يَتَقَيَّأْ حَتَّى شَرِبَهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ لِعَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ:‏‏‏‏ أَقِمْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِلْحَسَنِ:‏‏‏‏ أَقِمْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ:‏‏‏‏ وَلِّ حَارَّهَا مَنْ تَوَلَّى قَارَّهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ عَلِيٌّ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ:‏‏‏‏ أَقِمْ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدَّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَخَذَ السَّوْطَ فَجَلَدَهُ وَعَلِيٌّ يَعُدُّ فَلَمَّا بَلَغَ أَرْبَعِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ حَسْبُكَ جَلَدَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَرْبَعِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ وَجَلَدَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ أَرْبَعِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَعُمَرُ ثَمَانِينَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَكُلٌّ سُنَّةٌ وَهَذَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ .

I was present with Uthman ibn Affan when al-Walid ibn Uqbah was brought to him. HUmran and another man bore witness against him (for drinking wine). One of them testified that he had seen him drinking wine, and the other testified that he had seen him vomiting it. Uthman said: He could not vomit it, unless he did not drink it. He said to Ali: Inflict the prescribed punishment on him. Ali said to al-Hasan: Inflict the prescribed punishment on him. Al-Hasan said: He who has enjoyed its pleasure should also bear its burden. So Ali رضی اللہ عنہ said to Abdullah bin Jafar: Inflict the prescribed punishment on him. He took a whip and struck him with it while Ali رضی اللہ عنہ was counting. When he reached (struck) forty (lashes), he said: It is sufficient. The Prophet صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم gave forty lashes. I think he also said: And Abu Bakr رضی اللہ عنہ gave forty lashes, and Umar رضی اللہ عنہ eighty. This is all sunnah (standard practice). And this is dearer to me.
