What is the punishment of drinking wines in Quran?
- A. 40 Lashes
- B. 50 Lashes
- C. 80 Lashes
- D. None of these
Explanation
The Quran prohibits wine but does not prescribe a fixed number of lashes for drinking it. The punishment of 40 lashes, later increased to 80 in the time of Umar (RA) according to some reports, comes from Sunnah and caliphal practice rather than an explicit Quranic penalty.
