English translation

4904. It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "A woman of Quraish, from Banu Makhzûm, stole, and she was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. They said: 'Who will speak to him concerning her?' They said: 'Usâmah bin Zaid.' So he came to the Prophet ﷺ and spoke to him. But he rebuked him, and he said: 'Among the Children of Israel, if a noble person stole, they would let him go. But if a low-class person stole, they would cut off his hand. By the One in Whose hand is the soul of Muhammad, if Fâtimah bint Muhammad were to steal, I would cut off her hand.'"(Sahih)

4900 - أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ إِسْحَقَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْجَوَّابِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَمَّارُ بْنُ رُزَيْقٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، عَنْ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ: سَرَقَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ مِنْ بَنِي مَخْزُومٍ، فَأُتِيَ بِهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا: مَنْ يُكَلِّمُهُ فِيهَا؟ قَالُوا: أُسَامَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ فَأَتَاهُ فَكَلَّمَهُ، فَزَبَرَهُ وَقَالَ: «إِنَّ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ كَانُوا إِذَا سَرَقَ فِيهِمُ الشَّرِيفُ تَرَكُوهُ، وَإِذَا سَرَقَ الْوَضِيعُ قَطَعُوهُ، وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ، لَوْ أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدٍ سَرَقَتْ لَقَطَعْتُهَا»
