It was narrated from Abu Umayyah Al that a thief who confessed to a crime but with whom no stolen goods had been found, was brought to the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلمThe Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وآلہ وسلم said to him: “I do not think that you stole anything.” He said: “Yes I did.” He said: “Take him and cut off his hand, then bring him here.” So they cut off his hand then they brought him to him. He said to him: “Say: I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him.” He said: “I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him.” He said: “Allah, accept his repentance.” (Da’if)
