He said: "I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him." He said:: "O Allah, accept his repentance."(Daif) (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4877)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِلِصٍّ فَاعْتَرَفَ اعْتِرافًا وَلَمْ يُوجَدْ مَعَهُ مَتَاعٌ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا إِخَالُكَ سَرَقْتَ؟ قَالَ بَلَى مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا قَالَ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اقْطَعُوهُ ثُمَّ جِيئُوا بِهِ قَالَ فَقَطَعُوهُ ثُمَّ جَاءُوا بِهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ قُلْ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللهَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ اللهُمَّ تُبْ عَلَيْهِ
