4984 - أَخْبَرَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَسَّانُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ الْمِسْوَرِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَا يُغَرَّمُ صَاحِبُ سَرِقَةٍ إِذَا أُقِيمَ عَلَيْهِ الْحَدُّ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: «وَهَذَا مُرْسَلٌ وَلَيْسَ بِثَابِتٍ»

This is because he has already received the punishment for his crime. But if he is found in possession of the stolen property or if it becomes known that he has concealed it here or there, then the property would be retrieved from him.
