malik:41-28Mālik > Nāfiʿ > ʿAbd Liʿabd Allāh b. ʿUmar Saraq / Ābiq Faʾarsal Bih ʿAbdullāh b. ʿUmar > Saʿīd b. al-ʿĀṣ Wahū Amīr al-Madīnah Liyaqṭaʿ Yadah Faʾabá Saʿīd > Yaqṭaʿ Yadah > Lā Tuqṭaʿ Yad al-Ābiq al-Sāriq Idhā Saraq

Yahya related to me from Malik from Nafi that a slave of Abdullah ibn Umar stole while he was a runaway. Abdullah ibn Umar sent him to Said ibn al-As, who was the amir of Madina, to cut off his hand. Said refused to cut off his hand. He said, "The hand of a runaway slave is not cut off when he steals." Abdullah ibn Umar said to him, "In what Book of Allah did you find this?" Then Abdullah ibn Umar gave the order, and his hand was cut off.  

مالك:٤١-٢٨حَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ عَنْ نَافِعٍ أَنَّ عَبْدًا لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ سَرَقَ وَهُوَ آبِقٌ فَأَرْسَلَ بِهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ وَهُوَ أَمِيرُ الْمَدِينَةِ لِيَقْطَعَ يَدَهُ فَأَبَى سَعِيدٌ أَنْ يَقْطَعَ يَدَهُ وَقَالَ لاَ تُقْطَعُ يَدُ الآبِقِ السَّارِقِ إِذَا سَرَقَ

فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فِي أَىِّ كِتَابِ اللَّهِ وَجَدْتَ هَذَا ثُمَّ أَمَرَ بِهِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ

[Machine] Does Ibn Umar have this in any book of Allah, so he commanded for his hand to be cut off.  

البيهقي:١٧٢٣٤أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعِيدِ بْنُ أَبِي عَمْرٍو ثنا أَبُو الْعَبَّاسِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ أنبأ الرَّبِيعُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ أنبأ الشَّافِعِيُّ أنبأ مَالِكٌ عَنْ نَافِعٍ أَنَّ عَبْدًا لِابْنِ عُمَرَ سَرَقَ وَهُوَ آبِقٌ فَأَرْسَلَ بِهِ عَبْدُ اللهِ إِلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْعَاصِ وَهُوَ أَمِيرُ الْمَدِينَةِ لِيَقْطَعَ يَدَهُ فَأَبَى سَعِيدٌ أَنْ يَقْطَعَ يَدَهُ وَقَالَ لَا تُقْطَعُ يَدُ الْآبِقِ إِذَا سَرَقَ فَقَالَ

لَهُ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فِي أِيِّ كِتَابِ اللهِ وَجَدْتَ هَذَا؟ فَأَمَرَ بِهِ ابْنُ عُمَرَ فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهُ
