حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ مَسْعُودِ بْنِ الأَسْوَدِ عَنْ أَبِيهَا قَالَ
لَمَّا سَرَقَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تِلْكَ الْقَطِيفَةَ مِنْ بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَعْظَمْنَا ذَلِكَ وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَةً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ فَجِئْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ نُكَلِّمُهُ وَقُلْنَا نَحْنُ نَفْدِيهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ تُطَهَّرَ خَيْرٌ لَهَا فَلَمَّا سَمِعْنَا لِينَ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ أَتَيْنَا أُسَامَةَ فَقُلْنَا كَلِّمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ ذَلِكَ قَامَ خَطِيبًا فَقَالَ مَا إِكْثَارُكُمْ عَلَىَّ فِي حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ ﷻ وَقَعَ عَلَى أَمَةٍ مِنْ إِمَاءِ اللَّهِ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ لَوْ كَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ابْنَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ نَزَلَتْ بِالَّذِي نَزَلَتْ بِهِ لَقَطَعَ مُحَمَّدٌ يَدَهَا

“When the woman stole the Qatifah from the house of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, we regarded that as a serious matter. She was a woman from Quraish. So we came to the Prophet ﷺ and spoke to him, and said: 'We will ransom her for forty Uqiyyah.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Purification is better for her.” When we heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ speak so kindly, we went to Usamah and said: 'Speak to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.' When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saw that, he stood up to speak and said: 'How much do you intercede with me concerning one of the legal punishments of Allah (SWT) that has befallen one of the female slaves of Allah (SWT)! By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fatimah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were to do what she has done, Muhammad would cut off her hand.”
