[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, and Abu al-Hassan 'Ali ibn Ahmad ibn Abdan informed us that Ahmad ibn 'Ubaid narrated to us, on the authority of Hisham ibn 'Ali, on the authority of 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Yahya al-Khallal, on the authority of al-Mufaddal ibn Fadalah, the judge of Egypt, on the authority of Yunus ibn Yazid al-Aili, on the authority of Sa'd ibn Ibrahim, on the authority of al-Miswar, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ saying: The thief is not to be punished if the prescribed punishment (hudud) is established against him. And in the narration of Abu 'Abdullah, it is stated: The owner of the stolen property is not to be compensated. This is a hadith with a difference in its reporting compared to al-Mufaddal, as it is reported from him in this way, and it is reported from him through Yunus, from al-Zuhri, from Sa'd, and it is reported from him through Yunus, from Sa'd ibn Ibrahim, from his brother al-Miswar. If this Sa'd is the son of Ibrahim ibn 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, then we do not know of any well-known reporter attributed to him, known as al-Miswar, nor is there any confirmation of hearing from his grandfather 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf. There is neither a confirmation of hearing nor a confirmation of seeing from him, so it is discontinued. And Ibrahim ibn 'Abd al-Rahman did not have any confirmation of hearing from 'Umar ibn al-Khattab. It is only said that he saw him and his father died during the time of 'Uthman. So his children only caught up with him after the death of his father 'Abd al-Rahman, so there is no confirmation of narrating from him or seeing him, so it is discontinued. If it is someone else, then we do not know him, and we do not know his brother. And it is not permissible for anyone to take anything from his brother's property except what pleases him.
