Hadith text
Narrated `Urwa bin Az-Zubair:A lady committed theft during the lifetime of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) in the Ghazwa of Al-Fath, ((i.e. Conquest of Mecca). Her folk went to Usama bin Zaid to intercede for her (with the Prophet). When Usama interceded for her with Allah's Messenger (ﷺ), the color of the face of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) changed and he said, "Do you intercede with me in a matter involving one of the legal punishments prescribed by Allah?" Usama said, "O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Ask Allah's Forgiveness for me." So in the afternoon, Allah's Apostle got up and addressed the people. He praised Allah as He deserved and then said, "Amma ba'du ! The nations prior to you were destroyed because if a noble amongst them stole, they used to excuse him, and if a poor person amongst them stole, they would apply (Allah's) Legal Punishment to him. By Him in Whose Hand Muhammad's soul is, if Fatima, the daughter of Muhammad stole, I would cut her hand." Then Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) gave his order in the case of that woman and her hand was cut off. Afterwards her repentance proved sincere and she got married. `Aisha said, "That lady used to visit me and I used to convey her demands to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)
Urwa bin Az-Zubair bataate hain: Ek mahilla ne Allah ke Rasool ki zindagi mein Ghazwa Al-Fath (yaani Mecca ki Fatah) ke dauran chori ki. Unke log Usama bin Zaid ke paas gaye taaki woh unke liye (Nabi se) sifarish karen. Jab Usama ne Allah ke Rasool se unke liye sifarish ki, Allah ke Rasool ke chehre ka rang badal gaya aur unhone kaha, "Kya tum mujhse ek aise maamle mein sifarish kar rahe ho jismein Allah ke nirdharit qanooni sazaon mein se ek shaamil hai?" Usama ne kaha, "Ya Allah ke Rasool! Mere liye Allah se maafi maangiye." Isliye dopahar ko, Allah ke Rasool uthe aur logon ko sambodhit kiya. Unhone Allah ki taarif ki jaisa woh deserve karte hain, aur phir kaha, "Amma Ba'du! Tumse pahle ki qaumen isliye barbaad huee kyunke agar unmein se koee izzatdaar shaks chori karta, woh unhe maaf kar dete, magar agar koee gareeb shaks chori karta, woh unpar (Allah ka) qanooni saza laagu karte. Us Zaat ki qasam jiske haathon mein Muhammad ki jaan hai, agar Fatima, Muhammad ki beti, chori karti, main unka haath kaatta." Phir Allah ke Rasool ne us aurat ke maamle mein apna hukum diya aur unka haath kaata gaya. Baad mein unki tauba sachchi saabit huee aur unki shaadi ho gaee. Ayesha ne kaha, "Woh mahilla mujhse milne aati thi aur main unki guzaarishen Allah ke Rasool tak pahunchati thi."
