أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الثَّمَرِ الْمُعَلَّقِ فَقَالَ مَا أَصَابَ مِنْ ذِي حَاجَةٍ غَيْرِ مُتَّخِذٍ خُبْنَةً فَلاَ شَىْءَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ خَرَجَ بِشَىْءٍ مِنْهُ فَعَلَيْهِ غَرَامَةُ مِثْلَيْهِ وَالْعُقُوبَةُ وَمَنْ سَرَقَ شَيْئًا مِنْهُ بَعْدَ أَنْ يُئْوِيَهُ الْجَرِينُ فَبَلَغَ ثَمَنَ الْمِجَنِّ فَعَلَيْهِ الْقَطْعُ وَمَنْ سَرَقَ دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَعَلَيْهِ غَرَامَةُ مِثْلَيْهِ وَالْعُقُوبَةُ

"Whatever a needy person takes without putting any in his pocket (and taking it away), there is no penalty on him. But whoever takes anything away, he must pay a penalty of twice its value, and be punished. Whoever steals something after it has been stored properly, and its value is equal to that of a shield, his hand must be cut off. Whoever steals something worth less than that, he must pay a penalty of twice its value and be punished."

- Ẓāhirī
ضعف حديث عمرو بن شعيب
machine translationThe ḥadīth of ʿAmr b. Shuʿayb is weak (ḍaʿīf).
in سنن النسائي, p. 4972 - Qurṭubī
أبو عمر يصحح حديث عمرو بن شعيب إذا كان الراوي عنه ثقة والراوي عنه لهذا الحديث ابن عجلان وهو ثقة
machine translationAbū ʿUmar considers the ḥadīth of ʿAmr b. Shuʿayb sound (ṣaḥīḥ) when the one narrating from him is trustworthy (thiqah), and the one narrating from him in this ḥadīth is Ibn ʿAjlān, who is trustworthy (thiqah).
in سنن النسائي, p. 4972 - Taḥāwī
هذا الحديث لا يحتج العلماء به ويطعنون في إسناده ولا سيما ما فيه مما يدفعه الإجماع من غرم المثلين
machine translationThe scholars do not use this ḥadīth as evidence and they criticize its chain of transmission (isnād), especially because it contains something that the consensus (ijmāʿ) rejects, namely the penalty of paying double the value.
