Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يُونُسُ حَدَّثَنَا لَيْثٌ عَنْ يَزِيدَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ رُكَانَةَ أَنَّ خَالَتَهُ أُخْتَ مَسْعُودِ ابْنِ الْعَجْمَاءِ حَدَّثَتْهُ أَنَّ أَبَاهَا قَالَ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْمَخْزُومِيَّةِ الَّتِي سَرَقَتْ قَطِيفَةً يُفْدِيهَا يَعْنِي بِأَرْبَعِينَ أُوقِيَّةً فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَأَنْ تُطَهَّرَ خَيْرٌ لَهَا فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَقُطِعَتْ يَدُهَا وَهِيَ مِنْ بَنِي عَبْدِ الْأَسَدِ.
English Translation
Yunus narrated to us, Layth narrated to us, from Yazid — meaning Ibn Abi Habib — from Muhammad ibn Ishaq, from Muhammad ibn Talhah ibn Yazid ibn Rukanah: that his maternal aunt, the sister of Mas'ud ibn al-'Ajma', told him that her father said to the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, regarding the Makhzumi woman who had stolen a velvet cloak, offering to ransom her — that is, with forty ounces of silver — so the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: That she be purified is better for her. So he ordered it, and her hand was cut off; she was of Banu Abd al-Asad.
