"عن صفيةَ بنتِ أَبى عُبَيْد أن رجلًا سرَق على عهدِ أَبى بكرٍ مقطوعةً يدُه ورجلُه، فأراد أبو بكرٍ أن يقطعَ رِجلَه ويدعَ يدَه يستطيبُ بها ويتطهَّرُ بها، وينتفِعُ بها، فقال عمر: لا والَّذى نفسى بيدِه لَتَقْطَعَنَّ يدَه الأخرى، فأمر به أبو بكر فُقُطِعت يدُه".

"Safiyyah bint Abi 'Ubayd narrated that a man stole during the time of Abu Bakr, and his hand and foot had already been cut off. Abu Bakr wanted to cut off his foot and leave his hand, so that he could use it to clean himself, purify himself, and benefit from it. 'Umar said: 'No, by the One in whose hand is my soul, you must cut off his other hand.' So Abu Bakr ordered it, and his hand was cut off."
