A Makhzuml woman used to borrow goods and deny having received them. The prophet ﷺ gave orders that her hand should be cut off. He (the narrator) then narrated the tradition similar to the one transmitted by Qutaibah from al-Laith from Ibn Shahib. This version adds: The prophet ﷺ had her hand cut off.
