10675 - And from Jabir ibn Abdullah: That the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) said: "Whoever drinks alcohol, flog him. If he returns (to it), flog him. If he returns, flog him. If he returns for the fourth time, kill him." He said: Then al-Nu'man was brought (to him) who had drunk (alcohol) for the fourth time, and he flogged him but did not kill him. So this was considered abrogating the command to kill - I say, Al-Tirmidhi narrated it, except for his statement that this was abrogating the command to kill, and the naming of al-Nu'man was narrated by al-Bazzar.

He said: So I was among those who struck him, and we struck him with sandals and palm fronds.

- .... And Muhammad ibn al-Munkadir said: When he was informed of the hadith of the execution in the fourth [time] while he had left that, he had come to the Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) with Ibn al-Nu'man and flogged him three times, then he brought him to the fourth [time] and flogged him again without increasing it. Al-Shafi'i said that the execution is abrogated by this hadith and others, and this is something upon which there is no disagreement among the scholars. I understood that he meant the hadith of Qabeesah ibn Thuwayb, which states that the punishment of execution was thus a concession ....

- .... And in the margins of Sahih al-Bukhari by al-Hafiz al-Dimyati: that Nu'ayman was among those who witnessed Badr and other battles,and he came to the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) while drinking alcohol, so he punished him with lashes, either four or five, indicating the number of times. Then a man from the crowd said: "O Allah, curse him! How much he drinks and how often he is punished!" The Prophet (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) replied: "Do not curse him, for he loves Allah and His Messenger," and perhaps this explanation should not be interpreted too literally.

- .... Al-Khattabi and others said: what is meant is the past, not the future, because if it were the future, it would be an expression of absolution in sins, and there is no justification for it. And the Prophet (peace be upon him) had Na'imaan punished for drinking wine, and Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) also punished Qudamah ibn Maz'un for it, both of whom were among the Ansar present at the Battle of Badr. And the Prophet (peace be upon him) imposed a punishment on Mistah, who was also a Badr participant. (In this regard, all of the mentioned) previous (sins) are equal, meaning any sin of drinking or otherwise.
