Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ ثَنَا سَعِيدٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي عَرُوبَةَ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ عَنْ طَارِقِ بْنِ مُرَقَّعٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَرَقَ بُرْدَهُ فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْهُ قَالَ فَلَوْلَا كَانَ هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ يَا أَبَا وَهْبٍ فَقَطَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us, Sa'id, meaning Ibn Abi Arubah, narrated to us, from Qatadah, from Ata', from Tariq ibn Muraqqa', from Safwan ibn Umayyah, that a man stole his cloak and he brought him to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who ordered his hand be cut. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I have pardoned him." He said: "If only this had been before you brought him to me, O Abu Wahb." So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) cut his hand.
