(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا
أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ، حَدَّثَنَا
الْأَعْمَشُ ، عَنْ
أَبِي صَالِحٍ ، عَنْ
أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَعَنَ اللَّهُ السَّارِقَ يَسْرِقُ الْبَيْضَةَ ، فَتُقْطَعُ يَدُهُ ، وَيَسْرِقُ الْحَبْلَ ، فَتُقْطَعُ يَدُهُ " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "May Allah's curse be upon the thief; he steals an egg (and later, due to becoming a habitual offender) his hand is cut off, and he steals a rope, so his hand is cut off."
