حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ وَعَفَّانُ قَالَا ثَنَا هَمَّامٌ عَنْ قَتَادَةَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ وَعَطَاءٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ لَا يَسْرِقُ حَيْنَ يَسْرِقُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَزْنِي حَيْنَ يَزْنِي وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَشْرَبُ الْخَمْرَ حَيْنَ يَشْرَبُهَا وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَغُلُّ حَيْنَ يَغُلُّ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَلَا يَنْتَهِبُ حَيْنَ يَنْتَهِبُ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ وَقَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَلَا يَنْتَهِبُ نُهْبَةً ذَاتَ شَرَفٍ وَهُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ قَالَ بَهْزٌ فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَالَ إِنَّهُ يُنْتَزَعُ مِنْهُ الْإِيمَانُ فَإِنْ تَابَ تَابَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: When a thief steals, he is not a believer; when an adulterer commits adultery, he is not a believer; when a person drinks alcohol, he is not a believer; when a person betrays, he is not a believer; and when a person commits robbery, he is not a believer. The words of the narrator ‘Ata are: Whoever commits robbery openly among people, he is not a believer. When Bahz, the narrator, was asked about the meaning of this hadith, he said: Faith is taken away from such a person, then if he repents, Allah Almighty accepts his repentance.
