The Book of Cutting off the Hand of the Thief from Sunan An-Nasa’i


4874 It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “No one who commits Zina is a believer at the moment when he is committing Zina; no one who steals is a believer at the moment when he is stealing; no one who drinks wine is a believer at the moment when he is drinking it; and no robber is a believer at the moment when he is robbing and the people are looking on.” (Sahih)

4875 It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet (saw) – and Ahmad said in his Hadith: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) – said: ‘No one who commits Zina is a believer at the moment when he is committing Zina; no one who steals is a believer at the moment when he is stealing; no one who drinks wine is a believer at the moment when he is drinking it; but repentance is available to him after that.’” (Sahih)

4876 It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: “No one who commits Zina is a believer at the moment when he is committing Zina; no one who steals is a believer at the moment when he is stealing; no one who drinks wine is a believer at the moment when he is drinking it.” – And he mentioned a fourth but I (the narrator) have forgotten it. – “When he does that the yoke of Islam is shed from his neck, but if he repents, Allah accepts his repentance.” (Da’if)

4877 It was narrated that Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, said: “The Messenger of Allah (saw) said: ‘Allah curses the thief who steals an egg and had his hand cut off, and who steals a rope and has his hand cut off.” (Sahih)

4878 It was narrated from An-Nu’man bin Bashir that a group of the Kala’iyin complained to him about some people who had stolen some goods, so he detained them for several days, then he let them go. They came and said: “You let them go without any pressure (to make them admit to their crime) or beating?” An-Nu’man said: “What do you want? If you wish, I will beat them, and if Allah brings back your goods thereby, all well and good. Otherwise I will take retaliation from your backs (by beating you) likewise.” They said: “Is this your ruling?” He said: “This is the ruling of Allah and His Messenger (saw).” (Da’if)

4879 It was narrated from Bahz bin Hakim, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (saw) detained some people who were under suspicion. (Hasan)

4880 It was narrated from Bahz bin Hakim, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Messenger of Allah (saw) detained a man who was under suspicion, then he let him go. (Hasan)

4881 It was narrated from Abu Umayyah Al-Makhzumi that a thief who confessed to a crime but with whom no stolen goods had been found, was brought to the Messenger of Allah (saw). The Messenger of Allah (saw) said to him: “I do not think that you stole anything.” He said: “Yes I did.” He said: “Take him and cut off his hand, then bring him here.” So they cut off his hand then they brought him to him. He said to him: “Say: I seek forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him.” He said: “I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him.” He said: “O Allah, accept his repentance.” (Da’if)

4882 It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah, that a man stole a Burdah of his, so he brought him before the Messenger of Allah (saw), 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 (saw) had (the man’s) hand cut off. (Hasan)

4883 It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah that a man stole his Burdah, so he brought him before the Prophet (saw), who ordered that his hand be cut off. He said: “O Messenger of Allah, I will let him have it.” He said: “O Abu Wahb! Why didn’t you do that before you brought him to me?” And the Messenger of Allah (saw) had (the man’s) hand cut off. (Hasan)

4884 ‘Ata’ bin Rabah narrated that a man stole a garment, and was brought before the Messenger of Allah (saw), who ordered that his hand be cut off. The man said: “O Messenger of Allah (saw), he can keep it.” He said: “Why (did you not say that) before now?” (Hasan)

4885 It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah that he circumambulated the Ka’bah and prayed, then he rolled up a Rida’ of his and placed it beneath his head, and slept. A thief came and slid it out from beneath his head and took it. He brought him to the Prophet (saw) and said: “This man stole my Rida’.” The Prophet (saw) said to him: “Did you steal this man’s Rida’?” He said: “Yes.” He said: “Take him away and cut his hand off.” Safwan said: “I did not want to have his hand cut off for my Rida’.” He said: “Why (did you not say that) before now?” (Hasan)
Ash’ath bin Sawwar differed with him.

4886 It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbas said: “Safwan was sleeping in the Masjid with his Rida’ beneath him, and it was stolen. He got up, and the man had gone, but he caught up with him, seized him and took him to the Prophet (saw), who ordered that his hand be cut off. Safwan said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, my Rida’ is not worth cutting off a man’s hand for.’ He said: ‘Why did you not say that before you brought him to me?’” (Sahih)
Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’i) said: Ash’ath is weak.

4887 It was narrated that Safwan bin Umayyah said: “I was sleeping in the Masjid on a Khamisah of mine that was worth thirty Dirhams, and a man came and stole it from me. The man was caught and taken to the Prophet (saw), who ordered that his hand be cut off. I came to him and said: “Will you cut off his hand for the sake of only thirty Dirhams? I will sell it to him on credit.” He said: “Why did you not say this before you brought him to me?” (Hasan)

4888 It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah that a Khamisah was stolen from beneath his head while he slept in the Masjid of the Prophet (saw). He caught the thief and brought him to the Prophet (saw), who ordered that his hand be cut off. Safwan said: “Are you going to cut off his hand?” He said: “Why did you let him go before you brought him to me?” (Hasan)

4889 It was narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his grandfather, that the Prophet (saw) said: “Pardon matters that may deserve Hadd punishment, before you bring it to my attention, for whatever is brought to my attention, the Hadd punishment becomes binding.” (Da’if)

4890 It was narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, that the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Pardon matters among yourselves that may deserve Hadd punishment, for whatever is brought to my attention the Hadd punishment becomes binding.” (Da’if)

4891 it was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, that a Makhzumi woman used to borrow things then deny that she had borrowed them, so the Prophet (saw) ordered that her hand be cut off. (Sahih)

4893 It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar, may Allah be pleased with them both, that a woman used to borrow jewelry from people then keep it.

4894 It was narrated from Nafi’ that a woman used to borrow jewelry during the time of the Messenger of Allah (saw). She borrowed some jewelry, collected it and kept it.

4895 It was narrated from Jabir that a woman from Banu Makhzum stole (something), and she was brought to the Prophet (saw).

4896 It was narrated from Sa’eed bin Al-Musayyab that a woman from Banu Makhzum borrowed some jewelry, asking on behalf of others, then she denied (having done) that, and the Prophet (saw) ordered that her hand be cut off. (Sahih)

4898 Sufyan said: “There was a Makhzumi woman who used to borrow things then deny that. She was brought to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and he was told about her. He said: ‘If it were Fatimah (who stole), I would cut off her hand.’” It was said to Sufyan: “Who told you that?” He said: “Ayyub bin Musa, from Az-Zuhri, from ‘Urwah, from ‘Aishah, if Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, wills.” (Sahih)

4899 It was narrated from ‘Aishah that a woman stole (something) and she was brought to the Prophet (saw). They said: “Who would dare to speak to the Messenger of Allah (saw) except Usamah. “So they spoke to Usamah and he spoke to (the Prophet (saw)). The Prophet (saw) said: “O Usamah, the Children of Israel were destroyed because whenever a noble person among them committed a crime, for which a Hadd punishment was deserved, they would let him go. But if a low-class person among them committed such a crime, they would carry out the punishment on him. If Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I could cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4900 It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “A thief was brought to the Prophet (saw) and he cut off his hand.” They said: “We did not think that you would take it so far.” He said: “If it were Fatimah (who stole), I would cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4901 It was narrated from ‘Aishah that a woman stole at the time of the Messenger of Allah (saw) and they said: “We cannot speak concerning her; there is no one who can speak to him except his beloved, Usamah.” So he spoke to him, and he said: “O Usamah, the Children of Israel were destroyed for such a thing. Whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go, but if a low-class person among them stole, they would cut off his hand. If it were Fatimah bint Muhammad (who stole), I would cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4902 It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “A woman borrowed some jewelry, saying that other people needed it – people whose names were known but hers was not – then she sold it and kept the money. She was brought to the Messenger of Allah (saw), and her people went to Usamah bin Zaid, who spoke to the Messenger of Allah (saw) concerning her. The face of the Messenger of Allah (saw) changed color while he was speaking to him. Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) said to him: ‘Are you interceding with me concerning one of the Hadd punishments decreed by Allah?’ Usamah said: ‘Pray for forgiveness for me, O Messenger of Allah!’ Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) stood up that evening, he praised and glorified Allah, the Mighty and Sublime as He deserves, then he said: The people who came before you were destroyed because, whenever a noble person among them stole, they let him go. But if a low-class person stole, they would carry out the punishment on him. By the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.’ Then he cut off the hand of that woman.” (Sahih)

4903 It was narrated from ‘Aishah that Quraish were worried about the Makhzumi woman who had stolen. They said: “Who will speak to the Messenger of Allah (saw) concerning her?” They said: “Who would dare to do that except Usamah bin Said, the beloved of the Messenger of Allah (saw)?” So Usamah spoke to him, and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Are you interceding concerning one of the Hadd punishments decreed by Allah?” Then he stood up and addressed (the people) and said: “Those who came before you were destroyed because, whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go. But if a person who was weak stole, they would carry out the punishment on him. By Allah, if Fatimah the daughter of Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4904 It was narrated that ‘Aishah said: “A woman of Quraish, from Banu Makhzum, stole, and she was brought to the Prophet (saw). They said: ‘Who will speak to him concerning her?’ They said: ‘Usamah bin Zaid.’ So he came to the Prophet (saw) and spoke to him. But he rebuked him, and he said: ‘Among the Children of Israel, if a noble person stole, they would let him go. But if a low-class person stole, they would cut off his hand. By the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah bint Muhammah were to steal, I would cut off her hand.’” (Sahih)

4905 It was narrated from ‘Aishah that Quraish were worried about the case of the Makhzumi woman who stole, and they said: “Who will speak concerning her?” They said: “Who would dare to do that except Usamah bin Zaid, the beloved of the Messenger of Allah (saw)?” So Usamah spoke to him, and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Those who came before you were destroyed because whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go. But if a person who was weak stole, they would carry out the Hadd punishment. By Allah, if Fatimah, the daughter of Muhammad, were to steal, I would cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4906 It was narrated from ‘Aishah that a woman stole at the time of the Messenger of Allah (saw), during the Conquest, and she was brought to the Messenger of Allah (saw). Usamah bin Zaid spoke to him concerning her. But when he spoke to him, the face of the Messenger of Allah (saw) changed color, and the Messenger of Allah (saw) said: “Are you interceding concerning one of the Hadd punishments decreed by Allah?” Usamah said to him: “O Messenger of Allah! Ask Allah to forgive me!” When evening came, the Messenger of Allah (saw) stood up and praised and glorified Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, as He deserves, then he said: “The people who came before you were destroyed because whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go. But if one who was weak stole, they would carry out the Hadd punishment on him.” Then he said: “By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.” (Sahih)

4907 It was narrated that Az-Zuhri said: “Urwah bin Az-Zubair told me that a woman stole at the time of the Messenger of Allah (saw), during the Conquest. Her people went to Usamah bin Zaid, to ask him to intercede.” ‘Urwah said: “When Usamah spoke to him concerning her, the face of the Messenger of Allah (saw) changed color and he said: ‘Are you speaking to me concerning one of the Hadd punishments of Allah?’ Usamah said: ‘Pray to Allah for forgiveness for me, O Messenger of Allah.’ When evening came, the Messenger of Allah (saw) stood up to deliver a speech. He praised Allah as He deserves, then he said: ‘The people who came before you were destroyed because, whenever a noble person among them stole, they would let him go. But if one who was weak stole, they would carry out the Hadd punishment on him. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.’ Then the Messenger of Allah (saw) ordered that the hand of that woman be cut off. After that she repented sincerely, and ‘Aishah said: ‘She used to come to me after that, and I would convey her needs to the Messenger of Allah (saw).’” (Sahih)

Abu ‘Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasa’i) said: Ayman, the one whose narrations preceded, I do not think he was a Companion, and another Hadith has been related from him which proves what we have said:

4957 It was narrated that Ka’b said: “Whoever performs Wudu’ and performs Wudu’ well, then prays (‘Abdur-Rahman said: and prays ‘Isha’), then prays after that four Rak’ahs and does them well (Sawwar said: and bows and prostrates well), and understands what he is reciting (Sawwar said: and recites therein), they will be equivalent to (praying) Lailat Al-Qadr for him.” (Hasan Maqtu’)*
*Meaning, there is a break in the chain.

4958 It was narrated that Ka’b said: “Whoever performs Wudu’ and performs Wudu’ well, then attends ‘Isha’ prayer in congregation, then prays four Rak’ahs after that, reciting therein and bowing and prostrating perfectly, that will bring him a reward like that of (praying) Lailat Al-Qadar.” (Hasan Maqtu’)

The (thief’s) hand is not to be cut off for a sheep (stolen) from the grazing land, but if it had been put in the pen, then the (thief’s) hand is to be cut off (if what is stolen is equivalent to) the price of a shield.’” (Hasan)

4961 It was narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his grandfather ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, that the Messenger of Allah (saw) was asked about fruit on the tree. He said: “Whatever a needy person takes without putting any in his pocket (and taking it away), there is no penalty on him. But whoever takes anything away, he must pay a penalty of twice its value, and be punished. Whoever steals something after it has been stored properly, and its value is equal to that of a shield, his hand must be cut off. Whoever steals something worth less than that, he must pay a penalty of twice its value and be punished.” (Hasan)

4962 It was narrated from ‘Amr bin Shu’aib, from his father, from his grandfather, ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr, that a man from Muzainah came to the Messenger of Allah (saw) and said: “O Messenger of Allah, what do you think about a sheep stolen from the pasture?” He said: “(The thief must pay) double and be punished. There is no cutting off of the hand for (stealing) livestock, except that which has been put in the pen, if its value is equal to that of a shield, in which case the (thief’s) hand is to be cut off. If its value is not equal to that of a shield, then he should pay a penalty of twice its value and be flogged as a punishment.” He said: “O Messenger of Allah! What do you think about fruit on the tree?” He said: “(The thief must pay) double  and be punished. There is no cutting off of the hand for (stealing) fruit on the tree, except for that which has been stored properly if its value is equal to that of a shield, in which case the (thief’s) hand is to be cut off. If its value is not equal to that of a shield, then he should pay a penalty of twice its value and be flogged as a punishment.” (Hasan)
