"عن أَبى مليكة ان ابن الزبير أُتِى بوَصِيفٍ سرَق، فأمر به فَشُبِرَ، فوجده ستة أَشْبارِ، فقطعه، وحدثنا أن عمر كتب في غلام من أهل العراق سرق فكتب أن اشبروه إن وجدتموه ستة أشبار فاقطعوه، فشبروه فوجدوه ستة أشبار ينقص أنملة (فترك) ".

"It was narrated from Abu Malikah that Ibn al-Zubayr was brought a young slave who had stolen. He ordered that he be measured with spans, and he was found to be six spans, so he cut off his hand. He told us that 'Umar wrote concerning a young slave from the people of Iraq who had stolen: 'Measure him, and if you find him six spans, then cut off his hand.' They measured him and found him six spans, short by a finger joint, so he left him (alone)."
