Riyad as-Salihin 883رياض الصالحين 883
وعنه قال: أتي النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم برجل قد شرب قال: "اضربوه" قال أبو هريرة: فمنا الضارب بيده، والضارب بنعله، والضارب بثوبه. فلما انصرف، قال بعض القوم: أخزاك الله، قال: "لا تقولوا هذا، لا تُعينوا عليه الشيطان" ((رواه البخاري)).
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) said: A drunkard was brought to the Prophet (ﷺ). He said, "Give him a beating." Then some beat him with their hands, some with their shoes, and some with (a folded) piece of cloth. When he left, someone said to him: "May Allah disgrace you!" The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Do not help Satan overcome him by uttering such words.".
