Indeed, Allah Almighty has cursed regarding wine: the wine itself, the one who squeezes it, the one for whom it is squeezed, the one who drinks it, the one who carries it, the one to whom it is carried, the one who sells it, the one who buys it, the one who serves it, and the one who demands it to be served.

It is narrated from Huzain bin Munzir that Walid bin Uqbah led the people in the Fajr prayer. When he finished, he turned to the people and said: "Shall I lead you in more prayer?"

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Hasan! Stand up and flog him." He said: "What do you have to do with this matter?" Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "You have become weak and helpless." Then he said: "O Abdullah bin Ja'far! Stand up and flog him." So Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) flogged him, and Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) began to count. When they reached forty, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Stop." Then he said: "The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave forty lashes for drinking wine. Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) gave forty lashes throughout his era, and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) gave forty lashes at the beginning of his caliphate, then Sayyiduna Umar completed the punishment for drinking wine to eighty (80) lashes."

(Some other chain) Some people from Kufa came to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) and informed him about Walid drinking alcohol. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) spoke to Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) on this matter. He said: You yourself seize your cousin and carry out the prescribed punishment on him. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Hasan! Stand up and lash him. He said: What concern do you have with this matter? Assign this matter to someone else. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Rather, you have become weak and cowardly... Then a narration similar to the first narration was mentioned.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man was brought to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) who had drunk alcohol. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Beat him." Then some of us beat him with our hands, some with their shoes, and some with their clothes. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was finished, a man said: "May Allah disgrace you." But the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not say this.

Thus, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed the punishment for drinking wine at eighty lashes.

(Second chain) A man who had drunk wine was brought to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He struck him forty times with two palm branches.

Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) advised that the lightest prescribed punishment is eighty lashes, so Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered that the drunkard be given eighty lashes.
