A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ayoub Al Khazaz, from Al Halby, Abu Abdullah asws having said: ‘In the Book of Ali asws , he asws used to strike with the whip, and by half the whip, and part of it regarding the Penalties. And when they came with a boy and girl who had yet to mature, he asws would not invalidate a single Penalty ( Hadd ) from the Penalties of Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic’. It was said to him asws : ‘And how did he asws used to whip?’ He asws said: ‘He asws used to take the whip with his asws hands, from its middle or from its third, then strike with it upon the measurement of their respective ages, and he asws would not invalidate a single Penalty ( Hadd ) from the Penalties of Allah azwj Mighty and Majestic’.
