حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا الأَعْمَشُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا صَالِحٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏ "‏ لَعَنَ اللَّهُ السَّارِقَ، يَسْرِقُ الْبَيْضَةَ فَتُقْطَعُ يَدُهُ، وَيَسْرِقُ الْحَبْلَ فَتُقْطَعُ يَدُهُ ‏"‏. قَالَ الأَعْمَشُ كَانُوا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ بَيْضُ الْحَدِيدِ، وَالْحَبْلُ كَانُوا يَرَوْنَ أَنَّهُ مِنْهَا مَا يَسْوَى دَرَاهِمَ.

বাংলা অনুবাদ
আবূ হুরাইরাহ (রাঃ) সূত্রে নবী সাল্লাল্লাহু আলাইহি ওয়াসাল্লাম হতে বর্ণিত। তিনি বলেন, চোরের উপর আল্লাহর লা‘নত হোক, যখন সে একটি হেলমেট চুরি করে এবং এ জন্য তার হাত কাটা হয় এবং সে একটি রশি চুরি করে এ জন্য তার হাত কাটা হয়। আ’মাশ (রহ.) বলেন, তারা মনে করত যে, হেলমেট লোহার হতে হবে আর রশির ব্যাপারে তারা ধারণা করত তা কয়েক দিরহামের সমমূল্যের হবে। [৬৭৯৯; মুসলিম ২৯/১, হাঃ ১৬৮৭, আহমাদ ৭৪৪০] (আধুনিক প্রকাশনী- ৬৩১৪, ইসলামিক ফাউন্ডেশন)
