Chapter: Non-Acceptance of Ransom in Hudud as It Is an Expiation for the Sin
Hadith 6630
عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ أَنَّ خَالَتَهُ أُخْتَ مَسْعُودِ بْنِ الْعَجْمَاءِ حَدَّثَتْهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهَا قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَخْزُومِيَّةِ الَّتِي سَرَقَتْ قَطِيفَةً نَفْدِيهَا يَعْنِي بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَأَنْ تُطَهَّرَ خَيْرٌ لَهَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهَا وَهِيَ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْأَسَدِ
Muhammad bin Yazid narrates from the father of his maternal aunt, who says: Regarding the woman from the Makhzum tribe who stole a sheet, I said to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him: I will give forty uqiyah as ransom for her, so that she may be released in exchange, but the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: If she is purified, that is better for her. Then the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, ordered, and her hand was cut off. This woman was from Banu Abd al-Asad.
Hadith 6631
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ امْرَأَةً سَرَقَتْ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَاءَ بِهَا الَّذِينَ سَرَقَتْهُمْ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ هَذِهِ الْمَرْأَةَ سَرَقَتْنَا قَالَ قَوْمُهَا فَنَحْنُ نَفْدِيهَا بِخَمْسِ مِائَةِ دِينَارٍ قَالَ اقْطَعُوا يَدَهَا قَالَ فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهَا الْيُمْنَى فَقَالَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ هَلْ لِي مِنْ تَوْبَةٍ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ نَعَمْ أَنْتِ الْيَوْمَ مِنْ خَطِيئَتِكِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْكِ أُمُّكِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فِي سُورَةِ الْمَائِدَةِ {فَمَنْ تَابَ مِنْ بَعْدِ ظُلْمِهِ وَأَصْلَحَ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ يَتُوبُ عَلَيْهِ} [المائدة 39] إِلَخِ الْآيَةِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that a woman committed theft during the time of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Those from whom the theft had occurred brought her to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! This woman has stolen from us. The family members of the woman said: We will give five hundred dinars in exchange for this theft, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Cut off her hand. So her right hand was cut off. The woman said: O Messenger of Allah! Is there repentance for me? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Yes, rather today you have become as pure from your mistake as the day your mother gave birth to you. Then Allah the Exalted revealed this verse of Surah Al-Ma'idah: Whoever repents after his wrongdoing and reforms, then surely Allah turns to him in mercy; indeed, Allah is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.
Hadith 6632
عَنِ ابْنِ خُزَيْمَةَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ مَنْ أَصَابَ ذَنْبًا أُقِيمَ عَلَيْهِ حَدُّ ذَلِكَ الذَّنْبِ فَهُوَ كَفَّارَتُهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khuzaymah bin Thabit (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever commits a sin and then the prescribed punishment for that sin is carried out upon him, then that will be an expiation for him.
Hadith 6633
عَنْ عَلِيٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنْ أَذْنَبَ فِي الدُّنْيَا ذَنْبًا فَعُوقِبَ بِهِ فَاللَّهُ أَعْدَلُ مِنْ أَنْ يُثْنِيَ عُقُوبَتَهُ عَلَى عَبْدِهِ وَمَنْ أَذْنَبَ ذَنْبًا فِي الدُّنْيَا فَسَتَرَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَفَا عَنْهُ فَاللَّهُ أَكْرَمُ مِنْ أَنْ يَعُودَ فِي شَيْءٍ قَدْ عَفَا عَنْهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever commits a sin in this world and is punished for it here, then Allah Almighty is more just than to punish such a servant again. And whoever commits a sin in this world and Allah Almighty conceals it and forgives him, then He is more gracious and merciful than to call him to account for a sin which He has already forgiven.
