Hadith 6627

عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا أَنَا رَاقِدٌ إِذْ جَاءَ السَّارِقُ فَأَخَذَ ثَوْبِي مِنْ تَحْتِ رَأْسِي فَأَدْرَكْتُهُ فَأَتَيْتُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ هَذَا سَرَقَ ثَوْبِي فَأَمَرَ بِهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ يُقْطَعَ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَيْسَ هَذَا أَرَدْتُ هُوَ عَلَيْهِ صَدَقَةٌ قَالَ فَهَلَّا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ
Narrated by Sayyiduna Safwan bin Umayyah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Once I was asleep, a thief came and stole a cloth from under my head. I caught him and brought him to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: He has stolen my cloth. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered his hand to be cut off, I said: O Messenger of Allah! That was not my intention; I give this cloth to him as charity. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Why did you not do so before bringing him to me?
