سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع عَنْ رَجُلٍ سَرَقَ سَرِقَةً فَكَابَرَ عَنْهَا فَضُرِبَ فَجَاءَ بِهَا بِعَيْنِهَا هَلْ يَجِبُ عَلَيْهِ الْقَطْعُ قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لَكِنْ لَوِ اعْتَرَفَ وَ لَمْ يَجِئْ بِالسَّرِقَةِ لَمْ تُقْطَعْ يَدُهُ لِأَنَّهُ اعْتَرَفَ عَلَى الْعَذَابِ.
English translationHubeAli
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hisham Bin Salim, from Suleyman Bin Khalid who said, ‘I asked Abu Abdullah asws about a man who stole something, but he argued from it. So he was whipped. So he came with it (the stolen item) exactly. Would the cutting be Obligated upon him?’ He asws said: ‘Yes. But, had he acknowledged, and did not come with the stolen item, his hand would not be cut, because he would have acknowledged (his theft) upon the punishment’.
