ibnmajah:2588Muḥammad b. Yaḥyá > Ibn Abū Maryam > Ibn Lahīʿah > Yazīd b. Abū Ḥabīb > ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. Thaʿlabah al-Anṣārī from his father

“O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! I stole a camel belonging to Banu so-and-so; purify me!” The Prophet ﷺ sent word to them and they said: “(Yes), we have lost a camel of ours.” So the Prophet ﷺ ordered that his hand be cut off. Tha'labah said: “I was looking at him when his hand fell and he said (to it) 'Praise is to Allah (STW) Who has purified me of you; you wanted to cause my whole body to enter Hell.'''  

ابن ماجة:٢٥٨٨حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ الأَنْصَارِيِّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ

أَنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ حَبِيبِ بْنِ عَبْدِ شَمْسٍ جَاءَ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنِّي سَرَقْتُ جَمَلاً لِبَنِي فُلاَنٍ فَطَهِّرْنِي فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا افْتَقَدْنَا جَمَلاً لَنَا فَأَمَرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ قَالَ ثَعْلَبَةُ أَنَا أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ حِينَ وَقَعَتْ يَدُهُ وَهُوَ يَقُولُ الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي طَهَّرَنِي مِنْكِ أَرَدْتِ أَنْ تُدْخِلِي جَسَدِي النَّارَ
