كَانَ عَلِيٌّ ص لَا يَزِيدُ عَلَى قَطْعِ الْيَدِ وَ الرِّجْلِ وَ يَقُولُ إِنِّي لَأَسْتَحْيِي مِنْ رَبِّي أَنْ أَدَعَهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ مَا يَسْتَنْجِي بِهِ أَوْ يَتَطَهَّرُ بِهِ قَالَ وَ سَأَلْتُهُ إِنْ هُوَ سَرَقَ بَعْدَ قَطْعِ الْيَدِ وَ الرِّجْلِ فَقَالَ أَسْتَوْدِعُهُ السِّجْنَ أَبَداً وَ أُغْنِي عَنِ النَّاسِ شَرَّهُ.

He (the narrator) said, ‘And I asked him asws , ‘If he were to steal after cutting of the hand and the leg?’ So he asws said: ‘I asws would leave him in the prison forever, and make the people to be free from his evil’.
