حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثَنَا أَبُو زُرْعَةَ الدِّمَشْقِيُّ ثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الْوَهْبِيُّ ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ مَسْعُودِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِيهَا مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ

لَمَّا سَرَقَتْ تِلْكَ الْمَرْأَةُ الْقَطِيفَةَ مِنْ بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْظَمْنَا ذَلِكَ وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَةً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَجِئْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَلَّمْنَاهُ فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَحْنُ نَفْدِيهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً قَالَ «تَطَّهَّرُ خَيْرٌ لَهَا» فَلَمَّا سَمِعْنَا مِنْ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَتَيْنَا أُسَامَةَ بْنَ زَيْدٍ فَقُلْنَا اشْفَعْ لَنَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فِي شَأْنِ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةِ نَحْنُ نَفْدِيهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ جِدَّ النَّاسِ فِي ذَلِكَ قَامَ خَطِيبًا فَقَالَ «يَا أَيُّهَا النَّاسُ مَا إِكْثَارُكُمْ فِي حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ وَقَعَ عَلَى أَمَةٍ مِنْ إِمَاءِ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ كَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ بِنْتُ مُحَمَّدٍ نَزَلَتْ بِالَّذِي بِهِ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةُ لَقَطَعَ مُحَمَّدٌ يَدَهَا» قَالَ فَأَيِسَ النَّاسُ وَقَطَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدَهَا قَالَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ فَحَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ «أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ كَانَ يَرْحَمُهَا وَيَصِلَهَا»

✧ When that woman stole the velvet cloth from the house of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we considered it a grave matter. She was a woman from Quraysh, so we came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and spoke to him, saying: "O Messenger of Allah, we will ransom her for forty uqiyyah." He said: "That she be purified is better for her." When we heard the words of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we went to Usamah ibn Zayd and said: "Intercede for us with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ regarding this woman; we will ransom her for forty uqiyyah." When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw the people's insistence on that, he stood up to deliver a sermon and said: "O people, why do you make so much fuss about a punishment from among the punishments of Allah that has befallen a maidservant from among the maidservants of Allah? By Him in whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah bint Muhammad were to commit what this woman has committed, Muhammad would cut off her hand." He said: The people despaired, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ cut off her hand. Muhammad ibn Ishaq said: Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr told me that after that, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ showed her mercy and maintained ties with her.
