(37) – باب إِذَا تَتَابَعَ فِي شُرْبِ الْخَمْرِ
(37) – One who drinks khamr repeatedly
Sunan Abu Dawood 4483
The tradition mentioned above has also been transmitted by Ibn ‘Umar through a different chain of narrators to the same effect. This version has :
I think he said for the fifth time: If he drinks it, kill him.
Abu Dawud said: And similarly the word “a fifth time” occurs in the tradition of Abu Ghutaif.
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ بِهَذَا الْمَعْنَى قَالَ وَأَحْسِبُهُ قَالَ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ " إِنْ شَرِبَهَا فَاقْتُلُوهُ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَكَذَا فِي حَدِيثِ أَبِي غُطَيْفٍ فِي الْخَامِسَةِ .
