[Machine] No, by Allah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not truncate the hands and feet of the people of Liqah, as said by Sheikh (may Allah have mercy on him). This is a narration from Anas, a Hadith that is authentic and supported by the narration of Ibn Umar. Both narrations confirm that the people of Liqah had their eyes plucked out. Therefore, there is no meaning to denying what has been denied, and the best understanding is that it is abrogated as reported by Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz, who was narrated to by Abu Al-Abbas Muhammad Ibn Ya'qub, who was narrated to by Muhammad Ibn Ishaq, who was narrated to by Affan Ibn Muslim, who was narrated to by Hammam, from Qatadah, from Anas. He narrates that a group from Uraynah came to the Prophet ﷺ , and he mentioned the Hadith. Qatadah said: "And Ibn Sirin narrated to me that this happened before the implementation of the punishments." And in the narration of Hisham, from Qatadah, there is evidence of this or it gives the understanding that he did the same to them as they did to their shepherds.
