Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) and Zaid bin Khalid (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked, "If an unmarried slave-girl commits adultery (what is the ruling for her)?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Flog her." If she commits adultery again, then flog her again. If she still commits adultery, then sell her, even if it is in exchange for only a rope.

Hazrat Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) beat (the offender) with a stick and shoes for drinking alcohol, and Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) administered forty lashes.

Hazrat Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that I would not like to inflict such a punishment on anyone in enforcing a hadd (prescribed punishment) that he dies and then I feel regret over it, except for the drunkard; if he dies, I will pay his blood money, because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) did not prescribe any fixed hadd for him.

Hazrat Abu Burdah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: In the punishments set by Allah, except for a prescribed limit (hadd), no one should be given more than ten lashes as disciplinary punishment.

Hazrat Ubadah bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him), who participated in the Battle of Badr and was one of the (twelve) leaders at the night of Aqabah, narrates: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, while a group of his companions was sitting around him, "Pledge allegiance to me on the condition that you will not associate anything with Allah, will not steal, will not commit adultery, will not kill your children, will not slander anyone intentionally and falsely, and will not disobey (Allah) in any good matter." Whoever among you fulfills this covenant, his reward is with Allah. And whoever commits any of these (evil deeds) and is punished for it in this world (according to Islamic law), then that punishment will be an expiation for his (sins). And whoever becomes involved in any of these matters and Allah conceals his (sin), then his (case) is with Allah; if He wills, He will forgive him, and if He wills, He will punish him. (Ubadah says) Then we all pledged allegiance to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) on all these matters.

Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: There is no compensation for harm caused by an animal, and the same applies to a well, and the same applies to a mine, and one-fifth is to be taken from buried treasure (rikaz).
