[Machine] Muawiyah wrote to him that if any man is stolen from, he has the right to claim it and take it back from the thief, wherever he finds it. He said, "So I wrote to Marwan that the Prophet ﷺ ruled that if the one who bought it from the thief is not accused, the owner should have the choice. If he wishes, he can take it back at the price he paid, and if he wishes, he can pursue the thief." He said, "And Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman ruled the same."  

أَنَّ مُعَاوِيَةَ كَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ سُرِقَ مِنْهُ سَرِقَةٌ فَهُوَ أَحَقُّ بِهَا بِالثَّمَنِ حَيْثُ وَجَدَهَا قَالَ فَكَتَبْتُ إِلَى مَرْوَانَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَضَى أَنَّهُ إِذَاكَانَ الَّذِي ابْتَاعَهَا مِنَ الَّذِي سَرَقَهَا غَيْرَ مُتَّهَمٍ خُيِّرَ سَيِّدُهَا فَإِنْ شَاءَ أَخَذَ الَّذِي سُرِقَ مِنْهُ بِالثَّمَنِ وَإِنْ شَاءَ اتَّبَعَ سَارِقَهُ قَالَ وَقَضَى بِذَلِكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ

[Machine] Ma'rwan ibn al-Hakam, Mu'awiyah wrote a letter saying, "When a man is stolen from, mention the hadith."  

قَالَ كَتَبَ مُعَاوِيَةُ إِلَى مَرْوَانَ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ إِذَا سُرِقَ الرَّجُلُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ
