Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ayoub, from Muhammad Bin Muslim who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah asws , ‘Regarding how much would the thief’s (hand) be cut?’ So he asws said: ‘Regarding a quarter of a Dinaar’. I said to him asws , ‘Regarding to Dirhams?’ So he asws said: ‘Regarding a quarter of a Dinar, the (value of the) Dinar reaching what it reaches’. He (the narrator) said, ‘So I said to him asws , ‘What is your asws view of the one who steals less than a quarter of a Dinar when he steals, he would be named as a thief, and is he a thief in the Presence of Allah azwj in that state?’ So he asws said: ‘Every one who steals anything from a Muslim, so he has taken it and kept it in his possession, so upon him would occur the name of the thief, and he would be a thief in the Presence of Allah azwj , but, his hand would not be cut except with regards to a quarter of a Dinar, or more. And if the hands of the thief were to be cut regarding what is less than a quarter of a Dinaar, you would find the generality of the people as being (hand) cut’.
