He said: "Announce it for one year; if its owner comes, then fine, otherwise it will be yours." The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about something found in enemy territory, and he said: "From it and from buried treasure (rikaz), one-fifth is due (to the public treasury)." The narrator says: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about a lost goat, and he said: "Take hold of it, for it will either be for you, or for your brother, or for the wolf." The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about a lost camel, and he said: "Leave it, its feet and its stomach are with it; it will reach water on its own and eat from the trees." (The narrator says) The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was asked about one who steals from the mountain, and he said: "He should be beaten thoroughly and made to pay double the amount." If an animal is stolen from a place where livestock are kept and its value is equal to the value of a shield, that is, one dinar, then the hand should be cut off for it. He was asked about stealing fruit from the cluster, and he said: "That thief should be beaten and made to pay double the amount." He said: "If dates are stolen from the drying place, and the value of the stolen goods is equal to the value of a shield, then the hand should be cut off for it, and if it is less than that, then (the thief) should be beaten and made to pay double the amount."

Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a hand cut off for (the theft of) an iron helmet, the price of which was twenty-one dirhams.

Sayyiduna Bara’ (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: I met my maternal uncle and asked him,“Where are you going?”He replied,“The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has sent me to a man who has married his father’s wife. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) has instructed me to behead him.”The narrator named Hafs has reported these words:“That I should bring his head to the Prophet.”

Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: A man from the tribe of Aslam came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and he testified four times about himself that he had established an unlawful relationship with a woman. Each time, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned away from him. When he came the fifth time, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Did you have intercourse with her?" He replied: "Yes." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "(In such a way) that your private part entered her private part just as a needle enters a kohl container, or a bucket enters a well?" He replied: "Yes." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Do you know what adultery is?" He replied: "Yes, I committed with that woman, in an unlawful way, the act that a man lawfully does with his wife." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "What do you seek by this confession?" He replied: "I want you (peace and blessings be upon him) to purify me." So, by the order of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he was stoned to death.

The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) heard two men among his companions talking. One of them said to the other: "Just look at this man, Allah had concealed his sin, but he did not let it remain concealed and was stoned like a dog." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent. After a while, he passed by the carcass of a donkey, one of its legs raised upwards. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Where are so-and-so and so-and-so?" Both replied: "O Messenger of Allah! We are here." The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Both of you get down and take your share of meat from this dead donkey." Both replied: "O Prophet of Allah! May Allah forgive you, who would eat its meat?" The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "What you have just done to your brother's honor is more severe than eating the flesh of a dead animal. By the One in Whose hand is my soul, that man is now diving into the rivers of Paradise."

So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) imposed the payment of blood money for the murdered woman upon the family of the killer woman, and ordered the payment of compensation for the child that was in the womb of the murdered woman. Then a man from the family of the killer woman said:“Shall we pay compensation for a child who has neither eaten nor drunk, who has not cried (i.e., was not born)? Such blood is wasted.”So the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:“Are you speaking in the rhymed prose of the Bedouins?”The narrator says: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) made the payment of blood money obligatory in this case.
