Abdullah came to Syria and some of the people of Homs said to him: Recite to us. So he recited Sooorat Yoosuf to them. A man who was present stood up and said: By Allah, this is not how it was revealed! 'Abdullah said: Woe to you! By Allah, I recited it to The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) like this, and he said: "You have done well.” Whilst he was talking to him, he noticed the smell of alcohol on him and he said: Do you drink impurity and disbelieve in the Qur'an? By Allah, you will not leave me until I have you flogged. And he had flogged as the hadd punishment.
