حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ، قَالَ: نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي جَدِّي عُبَيْدُ بْنُ عَقِيلٍ قَالَ: نَا مُصْعَبُ بْنُ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْمُنْكَدِرِ. عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ:
أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِسَارِقٍ فَقَالَ: " اقْتُلُوهُ. قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ، قَالَ: " اقْطَعُوهُ "، فَقُطِعَ، ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِهِ الثَّانِيَةَ، فَقَالَ: " اقْتُلُوهُ "، فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ، قَالَ: " اقْطَعُوهُ " ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِهِ الثَّالِثَةَ، فَقَالَ: " اقْتُلُوهُ " فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ، قَالَ: " اقْطَعُوهُ " ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ الرَّابِعَةَ، فَقَالَ: " اقْتُلُوهُ "، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، إِنَّمَا سَرَقَ، قَالَ: " اقْطَعُوهُ "، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِهِ الْخَامِسَةَ، فَقَالَ: " اقْتُلُوهُ " قَالَ جَابِرٌ: " فَانْطَلَقْنَا بِهِ إِلَى مِرْبَدِ النَّعَمِ، ثُمَّ حَمَلْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَاسْتَلْقَى عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ، فَرَمَيْنَاهُ بِالْحِجَارَةِ، فَقَتَلْنَاهُ، ثُمَّ أَلْقَيْنَاهُ فِي بِئْرٍ، ثُمَّ رَمَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْحِجَارَةَ
