Question:
What is the method of flogging the one who drinks intoxicants? Is it in one session or in separate sessions?
Answer:
It is in one session. He is flogged in one session for intoxicants, for unlawful sexual intercourse, and for falsely accusing someone of zina. It is in one session and is not separated. However, the hudud punishment may be lightened if he is ill and cannot bear it. The striking may be lightened for him, but the number is not lightened; rather, the manner is lightened.[Sad 38:44] The manner is lightened, not the number. Yes.

And take in your hand a bunch [of grass] and strike with it and do not break your oath.
وَخُذْ بِيَدِكَ ضِغْثًا فَاضْرِب بِّهِ وَلَا تَحْنَثْ
