أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِسَارِقٍ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِ يَدِهِ، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ قَدْ سَرَقَ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَقُطِعَ رِجْلُهُ، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ بَعْدُ وَقَدْ سَرَقَ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِ يَدِهِ الْيُسْرَى، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ قَدْ سَرَقَ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِ رِجْلِهِ الْيُمْنَى، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ قَدْ سَرَقَ فَأَمَرَ بِقَتْلِهِ
