Urwah bin al-Zubayr reports this statement from his father: Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) met a thief and interceded for him. It was said to him: "(Wait) until we take him to the ruler." He said: "When the matter reaches the ruler, then may Allah curse the one who intercedes and the one to whom the intercession is made (or the one for whom it is made)", just as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat and al-Mu'jam al-Saghir. Its chain contains Abu Ghaziyyah Muhammad bin Musa al-Ansari, whom Abu Hatim and others declared da'if (weak), while al-Hakim (may Allah have mercy on him) declared him thiqah (trustworthy); and it contains Abd al-Rahman bin Abi al-Zinad, who is da'if (weak).
