[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was asked, "In what situations is the hand cut off?" He replied, "It is not cut off for a hanging fruit. If a crow pecks at it, then it is cut off for the worth of a mudd [a unit of measurement]. It is also not cut off for grazing on a mountain, but if a sheep grazes on it, then it is cut off for the worth of a mudd." Abu Hazim Al-Hafiz and Abu Nasr Ibn Qatadah narrated to us, reporting from Abu Al-Fadl Ibn Khumayrawayh, who reported from Ahmad Ibn Najdah, who narrated from Sa'id Ibn Mansur, who narrated from Abu Mu'awiyah, who narrated from a man from Thaqif, who reported from Abu Salamah Ibn 'Abdul Rahman, who said, "Uthman Ibn 'Affan said, 'There is no cutting off for birds.'"  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي كَمْ تُقْطَعُ الْيَدُ؟ قَالَ لَا تُقْطَعُ فِي ثَمَرٍ مُعَلَّقٍ فَإِذَا آوَاهُ الْجَرِينُ قُطِعَتْ فِي ثَمَنِ الْمِجَنِّ وَلَا تُقْطَعُ فِي حَرِيسَةِ الْجَبَلِ وَإِذَا آوَاهُ الْمُرَاحُ قُطِعَتْ فِي ثَمَنِ الْمِجَنِّ أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَازِمٍ الْحَافِظُ وَأَبُو نَصْرِ بْنُ قَتَادَةَ قَالَا أنبأ أَبُو الْفَضْلِ بْنُ خَمِيرَوَيْهِ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ نَجْدَةَ ثنا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ ثنا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ ثنا رَجُلٌ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ قَالَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ ؓ لَا قَطْعَ فِي طَيْرٍ
