2548. It was narrated from 'Aishah bint Mas'ud bin Aswad, that her father said: "When the woman stole the Qatifah[1] from the house of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, we regarded that as a serious matter. She was a woman from Quraish. So we came to the Prophet ﷺ and spoke to him, and said: 'We will ransom her for forty Uqiyyah.' The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'Purification is better for her.' When we heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ speak so kindly, we went to Usâmah and said: 'Speak to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ.' When the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ saw that, he stood up to speak and said: 'How much do you intercede with me concerning one of the legal punishments of Allâh that has befallen one of the female slaves of Allâh! By the One in Whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fâtimah the daughter of the Messenger of Allâh, were to do what she has done, Muhammad would cut off her hand.'" (Da'if)

2548 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ، عَنْ أُمِّهِ عَائِشَةَ بِنْتِ مَسْعُودِ بْنِ الْأَسْوَدِ، عَنْ أَبِيهَا قَالَ: لَمَّا سَرَقَتِ الْمَرْأَةُ تِلْكَ الْقَطِيفَةَ مِنْ بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَعْظَمْنَا ذَلِكَ، وَكَانَتِ امْرَأَةً مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، فَجِئْنَا إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نُكَلِّمُهُ، وَقُلْنَا: نَحْنُ نَفْدِيهَا بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «تُطَهَّرَ خَيْرٌ لَهَا» . فَلَمَّا سَمِعْنَا لِينَ قَوْلِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَتَيْنَا أُسَامَةَ فَقُلْنَا: كَلِّمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَلَمَّا رَأَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَلِكَ، قَامَ خَطِيبًا فَقَالَ: «مَا إِكْثَارُكُمْ عَلَيَّ فِي حَدٍّ مِنْ حُدُودِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَقَعَ عَلَى أَمَةٍ مِنْ إِمَاءِ اللَّهِ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَوْ كَانَتْ فَاطِمَةُ ابْنَةُ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ، نَزَلَتْ بِالَّذِي نَزَلَتْ بِهِ، لَقَطَعَ مُحَمَّدٌ يَدَهَا»
