The Book of Cutting off the Hand of the Thief
أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، أَنَّهَا سَمِعَتْ عَائِشَةَ، تَقُولُ يُقْطَعُ فِي رُبُعِ دِينَارٍ فَصَاعِدًا . قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا الصَّوَابُ مِنْ حَدِيثِ يَحْيَى .
"The hand of the thief is to be cut off for one-quarter of a Dinar or more." (Sahih) Abu 'Abdur-Rahman (An-Nasai) said: This is the correct version of the narration of Yahya.
