Chapter 4: If A Man Lets A Thief Have What He Stole, After Bringing Him Before The Ruler, And Mention Of The Differences Reported From 'Ata In The Narration Of Safwan Bin Umayyah About That
باب الرَّجُلُ يَتَجَاوَزُ لِلسَّارِقِ عَنْ سَرِقَتِهِ، بَعْدَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ، بِهِ الإِمَامَ وَذِكْرُ
Sunnan an-Nasai 4878
It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah, that
a man stole a Burdah of his, so he brought him before the Messenger of Allah , who ordered that his hand be cut off. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I will let him have it." He said: "Abu Wahb! Why didn't you do that before you brought him to us?" And the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) had (the man's) hand cut off.أَخْبَرَنَا هِلاَلُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي قَالَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، أَنَّ رَجُلاً، سَرَقَ بُرْدَةً لَهُ فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْهُ . فَقَالَ " أَبَا وَهْبٍ أَفَلاَ كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنَا بِهِ " . فَقَطَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
