4895. It was narrated from Jābir that a woman from Banu Makhzūm stole (something), and she was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. She sought the protection of Umm Salamah, but the Prophet ﷺ said: "If Fāṭimah bint Muḥammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand." And he ordered that her hand be cut off. (Sahīh)
4891 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَعْدَانَ بْنِ عِيسَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَعْيَنَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مَعْقِلٌ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ: أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ سَرَقَتْ، فَأُتِيَ بِهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَعَاذَتْ بِأُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «لَوْ كَانَتْ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدٍ لَقَطَعْتُ يَدَهَا» فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهَا
