أَخْبَرَنَا مَالِكٌ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ حَزْمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ [ ص: 278 ] بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: أَنَّ سَارِقًا سَرَقَ أُتْرُجَّةً فِي عَهْدِ عُثْمَانَ، فَأَمَرَ بِهَا عُثْمَانُ فَقُوِّمَتْ ثَلَاثَةَ دَرَاهِمَ مَنْ صَرْفِ اثْنَيْ عَشَرَ بِدِينَارٍ، فَقَطَعَ يَدَهُ.
It is narrated from Umrah bint Abd al-Rahman that during the time of Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), a thief stole an orange. Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) ordered that its value be assessed, and it was determined to be three dirhams, at the rate of twelve dirhams per dinar, so he had the thief's hand cut off. Imam Malik (may Allah have mercy on him) said: And this is the orange that people eat.
