أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ سَلْمٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا النَّضْرُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادٌ قَالَ يُوسُفُ عَنِ الْحَارِثِ بْنِ حَاطِبٍ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِلِصٍّ فَقَالَ «اقْتُلُوهُ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ ثُمَّ قَالَ «اقْتُلُوهُ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ قَالَ «اقْطَعُوا يَدَهُ» قَالَ ثُمَّ سَرَقَ فَقُطِعَتْ رِجْلُهُ ثُمَّ سَرَقَ عَلَى عَهْدِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ حَتَّى قُطِعَتْ قَوَائِمُهُ كُلُّهَا ثُمَّ سَرَقَ أَيْضًا الْخَامِسَةَ فَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ أَعْلَمَ بِهَذَا حِينَ قَالَ «اقْتُلُوهُ» ثُمَّ دَفَعَهُ إِلَى فَتْيَةٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ لِيَقْتُلُوهُ فِيهِمْ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ وَكَانَ يُحِبُّ الْإِمْرَةَ فَقَالَ أَمِّرُونِي عَلَيْكُمْ فَأَمَّرُوهُ عَلَيْهِمْ فَكَانَ إِذَا ضَرَبَ ضَرَبُوا حَتَّى قَتَلُوهُ

✧ A thief was brought to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he said: “Kill him.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, he only stole.” Then he said: “Kill him.” They said: “O Messenger of Allah, he only stole.” He said: “Cut off his hand.” He said: Then he stole again and his leg was cut off. Then he stole during the time of Abu Bakr until all his limbs were cut off. Then he stole a fifth time, and Abu Bakr said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ knew better about this when he said: ‘Kill him.’” Then he handed him over to some young men of Quraysh to kill him, among them Abd Allah b. al-Zubayr, who loved leadership. He said: “Appoint me as your leader,” so they appointed him over them. Whenever he struck, they struck, until they killed him.
