Hadith 3606
وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِذَا سَرَقَ الْمَمْلُوكُ فَبِعْهُ وَلَوْ بِنَشٍّ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ وَابْن مَاجَه
Abu Huraira reported God’s Messenger as saying, "When, a slave steals sell him, even though it be for half an uqiyah.”* Abu Dawud, Nasa’i and Ibn Majah transmitted it. * Nashsh, This is half an uqiya, or twenty dirhams.
