وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: جِيءَ بِسَارِقٍ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «اقْطَعُوهُ» فَقُطِعَ ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِهِ الثَّانِيَةَ فَقَالَ: «اقْطَعُوهُ» فَقُطِعَ ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِهِ الثَّالِثَةَ فَقَالَ: «اقْطَعُوهُ» فَقُطِعَ ثُمَّ جِيءَ بِهِ الرَّابِعَةَ فَقَالَ: «اقْطَعُوهُ» فَقُطِعَ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ الْخَامِسَةَ فَقَالَ: «اقْتُلُوهُ» فَانْطَلَقْنَا بِهِ فَقَتَلْنَاهُ ثُمَّ اجْتَرَرْنَاهُ فَأَلْقَيْنَاهُ فِي بِئْرٍ وَرَمَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الحجارةَ. رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد وَالنَّسَائِيّ
Jabir told that a thief was brought to the Prophet and he said, "Maim him, so this was done. He was brought a second time and he said, "Maim him,” so this was done. He was brought a third time and he said, "Maim him,” so this was done. He was brought a fourth time and he said, "Maim him,” so this was done. He was brought a fifth time and he said, "Kill him,” so they took him away and killed him. They then dragged him and cast him into a well and threw stones over him. Abu Dawud and Nasa’i transmitted it.
