Sunan al-Nasa'i — The Book of Oaths (qasamah), Retaliation and Blood Money

“Whoever castrates his slave, we will castrate him, and whoever mutilates his slave, we will mutilate him.” This is the wording of Ibn Bashshar (one of the narrators).

“I heard the Messenger of Allah say: ‘The hand is not to be cut off for (stealing) produce or the spadix of palm trees.”‘

“The Messenger of Allah said: ‘You should wear white garments; dress your living ones in them, and shroud your dead in them, for they are among the best of your garments.'”

Junadah ibn AbuUmayyah said: We were with Busr ibn Artat on the sea (on an expedition). A thief called Misdar who had stolen a bukhti she-camel was brought. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Hands are not to be cut off during a warlike expedition. Had it not been so, I would have cut it off.

“We performed Hajj with the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ), and there were women and children with us. We recited Talbiyah on behalf of the children and stoned the Pillars on their behalf.”
