[Machine] The scholars from the people of Madinah used to say that whoever steals a young or non-Arab slave has no retribution. It was narrated that Umar ibn Al-Khattab did not order the punishment for them. He said, "These are human traffickers." Our companions interpreted this to mean that if the slave is intelligent, then it has been narrated that Umar cut off the hand of a man who stole a slave boy.  

عَنِ الْفُقَهَاءِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ كَانُوا يَقُولُونَ مَنْ سَرَقَ عَبْدًا صَغِيرًا أَوْ أَعْجَمِيًّا لَا حِيلَةَ لَهُ قُطِعَ وَرُوِي عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ أَنَّهُ لَمْ يَرَ عَلَيْهِمُ الْقَطْعَ قَالَ هَؤُلَاءِ خَلَّابُونَ قَالَ أَصْحَابُنَا مَعْنَاهُ فِي الْعَبْدِ إِذَا كَانَ عَاقِلًا فَقَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ عُمَرَ ؓ أَنَّهُ قَطَعَ رَجُلًا فِي غُلَامٍ سُرِقَ  

[Machine] A man who used to steal children was brought and he ordered to have his hand cut off. Abu Saad al-Malini reported to us that Abu Ahmad bin Adi al-Hafiz narrated to us from al-Husayn bin Abdullah al-Qattan from Ishaq bin Musa from Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Yahya from Hisham bin Urwah from Urwah bin Zubair that Marwan bin al-Hakam was the governor of Madinah. He had a man who used to steal children and then take them to another land to sell them. Marwan consulted him about this matter so Urwah narrated this Hadith from Aisha from the Prophet ﷺ that he cut off a man's hand for this. Abu Ahmad said: This is not narrated from Hisham except from the narration of Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Yahya from him. Abu Bakr bin al-Harith al-Asbahani reported to us that Abu al-Hasan al-Daraqutni al-Hafiz said: Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Yahya bin Urwah specifically narrated from Hisham bin Urwah, and he made many mistakes in narrating from Hisham and his Hadith is weak.
