Chapter 46: The Book of Cutting off the Hand of the Thief
It was narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah that: a man stole his Burdah, so he brought him before the Prophet, who ordered that his hand be cut off. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I will let him have it." He said: "O Abu Wahb! Why didn' t you do that before you brought him to me?" And the Messenger of Allah had (the man' s) hand cut off.
