Sunan Abi Dawud 4486 (Book 40, Hadith 136) #24777
Punishment for Drinking Wine

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the punishment for drinking wine and the agreement of not paying blood-money for those who are punished.

’Ali said: I shall not pay blood-money or (he said) : I am not going to pay blood-money for him on whom I inflicted the prescribed punishment except for the one who drank wine, for the Messenger of Allah did not prescribe anything definite. It is a thing which we have decided (by agreement) ourselves.
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى الْفَزَارِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ أَبِي حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ عُمَيْرِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، رضى الله عنه قَالَ لاَ أَدِي - أَوْ مَا كُنْتُ لأَدِيَ - مَنْ أَقَمْتُ عَلَيْهِ حَدًّا إِلاَّ شَارِبَ الْخَمْرِ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَمْ يَسُنَّ فِيهِ شَيْئًا إِنَّمَا هُوَ شَىْءٌ قُلْنَاهُ نَحْنُ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about the punishment that should be given to someone who drinks wine. According to Ali, he will not pay blood-money or compensation for those whom he has inflicted with a prescribed punishment, except in cases of drinking wine. This is because the Messenger of Allah did not specify any definite punishment in such cases and it was something that they have decided by agreement themselves. Thus, this hadith teaches us that we should agree on punishments together and decide what is best according to our own judgement. It also teaches us that drinking alcohol is wrong and should be punished accordingly.
