Hadith 2597
حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاق بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ أَبَا الْمُنْذِرِ مَوْلَى أَبِي ذَرٍّ يَذْكُرُ أَنَّ أَبَا أُمَيَّةَ حَدَّثَهُ ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أُتِيَ بِلِصٍّ فَاعْتَرَفَ اعْتِرَافًا وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ مَعَهُ الْمَتَاعُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " مَا إِخَالُكَ سَرَقْتَ ؟ " قَالَ : بَلَى ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : " مَا إِخَالُكَ سَرَقْتَ ؟ " قَالَ : بَلَى ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَقُطِعَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " قُلْ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ " ، قَالَ : أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ ، قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ تُبْ عَلَيْهِ " مَرَّتَيْنِ .
´It was narrated from Ishaq bin Abu Talhah:` “I heard Abu Mundhir, the freed slave of Abu Dharr, say that Abu Umayyah narrated to him, that a thief was brought to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and he admitted his crime, although the stolen goods were not found with him. The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: 'I do not think you stole them.’ He said: 'Yes I did.' Then he said (again): ‘I do not think that you stole them.’ and he said: 'Yes I did.' Then he ordered that his hand be cut off. The Prophet (ﷺ) ' Say: I seek Allah's forgiveness and I repent to Him.' So he (the thief) said: 'I seek Allah's forgiveness and I repent to him.' He (the Prophet (ﷺ) said twice: 'O Allah! Accept his repentance.”
