Chapter 22 Selling a slave if he steals
باب بَيْعِ الْمَمْلُوكِ إِذَا سَرَقَ

Narrated AbuHurayrah:

The Prophet (ﷺ) as saying: When a slave steals, sell him, even though it be for half an uqiyah.

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِسْمَاعِيلَ - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ إِذَا سَرَقَ الْمَمْلُوكُ فَبِعْهُ وَلَوْ بِنَشٍّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏
