4390. It was narrated from ‘Abdullāh bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘Ās that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was asked about fruits hanging on the trees and he said: “If a needy person takes some with his mouth, and does not take any away in his garment, then there is no penalty for him, but if he carries some away, then he is to be fined twice its value and punished. Whoever steals anything from it after it has been put in the place where dates are dried and its value has reached the price of a shield, then his hand is to be cut off, but whoever steals less than that is to be fined twice its value and punished." (Hasan)

4390 - حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلَانَ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شُعَيْبٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الثَّمَرِ الْمُعَلَّقِ، فَقَالَ: «مَنْ أَصَابَ بِفِيهِ مِنْ ذِي حَاجَةٍ غَيْرَ مُتَّخِذٍ خُبْنَةً، فَلَا شَيْءَ عَلَيْهِ، وَمَنْ خَرَجَ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْهُ فَعَلَيْهِ غَرَامَةُ مِثْلَيْهِ وَالْعُقُوبَةُ، وَمَنْ سَرَقَ مِنْهُ شَيْئًا بَعْدَ أَنْ يُؤْوِيَهُ الْجَرِينُ، فَبَلَغَ ثَمَنَ الْمِجَنِّ، فَعَلَيْهِ الْقَطْعُ، وَمَنْ سَرَقَ دُونَ ذَلِكَ فَعَلَيْهِ غَرَامَةُ مِثْلَيْهِ، وَالْعُقُوبَةُ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: " الْجَرِينُ: الْجُوخَانُ "
