Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 10656

وَعَنْ أَبِي مَاجِدٍ - يَعْنِي الْحَنَفِيَّ - قَالَ : كُنْتُ قَاعِدًا مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : إِنِّي أَذْكُرُ أَوَّلَ رَجُلٍ قَطَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - أُتِيَ بِسَارِقٍ فَقَطَعَ يَدَهُ .
فَكَأَنَّمَا أَسِفَ وَجْهُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، كَأَنَّكَ كَرِهْتَ قَطْعَهُ ؟ قَالَ : " وَمَا يَمْنَعُنِي ؟ لَا تَكُونُوا أَعْوَانًا لِلشَّيْطَانِ عَلَى أَخِيكُمْ ، إِنَّهُ يَنْبَغِي لِلْإِمَامِ إِذَا انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِ حَدٌّ أَنْ يُقِيمَهُ ، إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَفُوٌّ يُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ وَلْيَعْفُوا وَلْيَصْفَحُوا أَلَا تُحِبُّونَ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ اللَّهُ لَكُمْ وَاللَّهُ غَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ .
Abu Majid al-Hanafi narrates: I was sitting with Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) and he said: "And I was mentioning the first man whose hand the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had cut off: a thief was brought and he had his hand cut off. The blessed face of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed (that is, he was grieved over it)." The narrator says: The people said: "O Messenger of Allah! It seems you did not like that his hand be cut off." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What could prevent me? Do not be helpers of Satan against your brother. It is proper for the ruler that, when a case (of a prescribed punishment) reaches him, he carries out its punishment. Indeed, Allah Almighty is Pardoning and loves pardon (and He has said:) 'Let them pardon and overlook. Do you not love that Allah Almighty should forgive you? And Allah Almighty is Forgiving, Merciful.'"
Ahmad recorded it.
