17508 - Abu al-Tayyib Sahl ibn Muhammad ibn Sulayman, may Allah have mercy on him, narrated to us, saying: The Imam and my father narrated to us, saying: Muhammad ibn Ishaq ibn Khuzaymah narrated to us, saying: Muhammad ibn Musa al-Harshi narrated to us, saying: Ziyad ibn Abdullah narrated to us, saying: Muhammad ibn Ishaq narrated to me, from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir, from Jabir ibn Abdullah, that the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said: "Whoever drinks wine, whip him. If he returns to it, whip him again. If he returns to it, whip him again. If he returns for the fourth time, kill him."
He said: And the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) punished al-Nu'man four times. The Muslims then saw that the punishment had been enacted when the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) struck four times. And Mamar narrated from Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir that he reported this from Zayd ibn Aslam, and that both said that.
