a man stole his Burdah, so he brought him before the Prophet, who ordered that his hand be cut off. He said: "O Messenger of Allah, I will let him have it." He said: "O Abu Wahb! Why didn't you do that before you brought him to me?" And the Messenger of Allah had (the man's) hand cut off. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 4879)
أَنَّ رَجُلًا سَرَقَ بُرْدَهُ فَرَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَمَرَ بِقَطْعِهِ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَدْ تَجَاوَزْتُ عَنْهُ قَالَ فَلَوْلَا كَانَ هَذَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تَأْتِيَنِي بِهِ يَا أَبَا وَهْبٍ؟ فَقَطَعَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ
