English translation
4476. It was narrated from ‘Ikrimah, from Ibn ‘Abbās that the Prophet ﷺ did not prescribe any specific Hadd (punishment) for drinking Khamr. Ibn ‘Abbās said: “A man drank Khamr and was intoxicated, and he started staggering about in the street. He was brought to the Prophet ﷺ, but when he was opposite the house of Al-‘Abbās, he got away and entered upon Al-‘Abbās and he grabbed hold of him. The Prophet ﷺ was told about that, and he smiled, and said: ‘Did he do that?’ And he did not issue any orders concerning him.” (Hasan) Abū Dāwūd said: This is one of the reports that were narrated only by the people of Al-Madinah, the Hadīth of Al-Ḥasan bin ‘Alī.[1]
