حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ يَعْنِى ابْنَ قَرْمٍ (٤) ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ ابْنِ أُخْتِ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، قَالَ: كُنْتُ نَائِمًا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ عَلَى خَمِيصَةٍ لِي، فَسُرِقَتْ فَأَخَذْنَا السَّارِقَ، فَرَفَعْنَاهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، " فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِهِ " فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَفِي خَمِيصَةٍ (٥) ثَمَنُ (٦) ثَلَاثِينَ دِرْهَمًا؟ أَنَا أَهَبُهَا لَهُ، أَوَ أَبِيعُهَا لَهُ، قَالَ: " فَهَلَّا كَانَ قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ؟ " (٧)، ،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was sleeping in Masjid Nabawi when a thief came and took the cloth from under my head and went away. I chased him, caught him, and presented him before the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "This person has stolen my cloth." The Prophet (ﷺ) ordered his hand to be cut off. I said, "O Messenger of Allah! Will his hand be cut off for a sheet worth thirty dirhams? I give it to him as a gift." The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Why did you not give it in charity before bringing him to me?"
