Muwatta Malik #1650
Hudud
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Marwan ibn
al-Hakam was brought a man who had snatched some goods and he wanted
to cut off his hand. He sent to Zayd ibn Thabit to ask him about it.
Zayd ibn Thabit said to him, "The hand is not cut off for what is
stolen by chance, openly, in haste."
