Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with both of them) narrates: A thief was brought to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and he had his hand cut off. He was brought again for theft, so he had his foot cut off. He was brought again for theft, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had his other hand cut off. He was brought again for theft, so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) had his (other) foot cut off. He was brought again for theft, so by the order of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), he was killed.
