Chapter: The thief who steals during a military expedition - should his hand be cut off.
Hadith 4408
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ ، عَنْ عَيَّاشِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ ، عَنْ شِيَيْمِ بْنِ بَيْتَانَ ، وَيَزِيدَ بْنِ صُبْحٍ الْأَصْبَحِيِّ ، عَنْ جُنَادَةَ بْنِ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ بُسْرِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ فِي الْبَحْرِ فَأُتِيَ بِسَارِقٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ : مِصْدَرٌ قَدْ سَرَقَ بُخْتِيَّةً فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " لَا تُقْطَعُ الْأَيْدِي فِي السَّفَرِ وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ لَقَطَعْتُهُ " .
Narrated Busr ibn Artat: Junadah ibn Abu Umayyah said: We were with Busr ibn Artat on the sea (on an expedition). A thief called Misdar who had stolen a bukhti she-camel was brought. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: Hands are not to be cut off during a warlike expedition. Had it not been so, I would have cut it off.
