عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ يَحْيَى الْغَسَّانِيِّ قَالَ قَدِمْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ فَلَقِيتُ أَبَا بَكْرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ حَزْمٍ وَهُوَ عَامِلٌ عَلَى الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ أُتِيتُ بِسَارِقٍ فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيَّ خَالَتِي عَمْرَةُ بِنْتُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا أَنْ لَا تَعْجَلْ فِي أَمْرِ هَذَا الرَّجُلِ حَتَّى آتِيَكَ فَأُخْبِرَكَ مَا سَمِعْتُ مِنْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فِي أَمْرِ السَّارِقِ قَالَ فَأَتَتْنِي وَأَخْبَرَتْنِي أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا تَقُولُ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ اقْطَعُوا فِي رُبْعِ الدِّينَارِ وَلَا تَقْطَعُوا فِيمَا هُوَ أَدْنَى مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَكَانَ رُبْعُ الدِّينَارِ يَوْمَئِذٍ ثَلَاثَةَ دَرَاهِمَ فَالدِّينَارُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ دِرْهَمًا قَالَ وَكَانَتْ سَرِقَتُهُ دُونَ رُبْعِ الدِّينَارِ فَلَمْ أَقْطَعْهُ
Yahya bin Yahya Ghassani says: I came to Madinah and met the governor of Madinah, Abu Bakr bin Muhammad. He said: A thief was brought to me, and my aunt, Umrah bint Abd al-Rahman, sent me a message saying: Do not make a hasty decision about this man; let me come to you so that I can tell you the hadith I heard from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) regarding the thief. So she came to me and informed me that she had heard from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) about the thief. She said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Cut off the thief’s hand for a quarter of a dinar; do not cut it off for less than that. In those days, a quarter of a dinar was equal to three dirhams, so a dinar was twelve dirhams. The theft of this thief was less than a quarter of a dinar, so I did not cut off his hand.
Hadith 6754
