Sunan an-Nasai 5708 (Book 51, Hadith 170) #20241
The Consequences of Drinking Intoxicants

SUMMARY: Umar bin Al-Khattab flogged someone for drinking an intoxicant, carrying out the Hadd punishment in full.

It was narrated from As-Sa'ib that : 'Umar bin Al-Khattab went out t them and said: "I noticed the smell of drink on so-and-so, and he said that he had drunk At-Tila (thickened juice of grapes). I am asking about what he drank. If it was an intoxicant I will flog him". So 'Umar bin Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, flogged him, carrying out the Hadd punishment in full.
قَالَ الْحَارِثُ بْنُ مِسْكِينٍ قِرَاءَةً عَلَيْهِ وَأَنَا أَسْمَعُ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْقَاسِمِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنِ السَّائِبِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ خَرَجَ عَلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ إِنِّي وَجَدْتُ مِنْ فُلاَنٍ رِيحَ شَرَابٍ فَزَعَمَ أَنَّهُ شَرَابُ الطِّلاَءِ وَأَنَا سَائِلٌ عَمَّا شَرِبَ فَإِنْ كَانَ مُسْكِرًا جَلَدْتُهُ فَجَلَدَهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رضى الله عنه الْحَدَّ تَامًّا

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the consequences of drinking intoxicants. It was narrated from As-Sa'ib that Umar bin Al-Khattab went out to them and noticed the smell of drink on someone. When asked what he drank, he said it was At-Tila, which is a thickened juice of grapes. However, since it was an intoxicant, Umar bin Al-Khattab decided to flog him as a punishment according to Hadd law. This hadith teaches us that we should be aware of our actions and their consequences as there are punishments for certain wrongdoings according to Islamic law. We should also be mindful not to consume any kind of intoxicant as it is prohibited in Islam and can lead to severe punishments if caught doing so.
