أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو عَمْرٍو الْحِيرِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يُونُسَ، ثنا أَبُو الطَّاهِرِ، أنبأ ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي يُونُسُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي عُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّ قُرَيْشًا أَهَمَّهُمْ شَأْنُ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي سَرَقَتْ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي غَزْوَةِ الْفَتْحِ، فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَى حَدِيثِ اللَّيْثِ زَادَ: ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِتِلْكَ الْمَرْأَةِ الَّتِي سَرَقَتْ فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهَا قَالَ يُونُسُ: قَالَ ابْنُ شِهَابٍ: قَالَ عُرْوَةُ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهَا: فَحَسُنَتْ تَوْبَتُهَا بَعْدُ وَتَزَوَّجَتْ، فَكَانَتْ تَأْتِي بَعْدُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَرْفَعُ حَاجَتَهَا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ⦗٤٦٥⦘ رَوَاهُ مُسْلِمٌ فِي الصَّحِيحِ عَنْ أَبِي طَاهِرٍ، وَرَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي أُوَيْسٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ أَصْحَابُنَا: وَلَوْ كَانَ الْقَطْعُ يَسْقُطُ بِهِبَةِ الْمَسْرُوقِ مِنَ السَّارِقِ لَكَانَ إِلَى الْمَسْرُوقِ مِنْهُ فَزَعُهُمْ وَشَفَاعَتُهُمْ فِيمَا أَهَمَّهُمْ، وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ.
Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said that Quraysh were troubled by (the matter of) a woman who had stolen in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), during the campaign of the Conquest (of Makkah). He then mentioned the meaning of al-Layth's hadith and added these words: Then that woman who had stolen was brought, and her hand was cut.
Yunus said that Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: After that she repented well and got married. She used to come afterwards, and I would present her need to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Muslim narrated it in the Sahih from Abu Tahir, and al-Bukhari narrated it from Ibn Abi Uways, from Ibn Wahb.
Our scholars said: If the cutting could be dropped from the thief by the owner gifting the stolen property, then intercession would have been all the more possible.
