إِذَا سَرَقَ الصَّبِيُّ عُفِيَ عَنْهُ فَإِنْ عَادَ عُزِّرَ فَإِنْ عَادَ قُطِعَ أَطْرَافُ الْأَصَابِعِ فَإِنْ عَادَ قُطِعَ أَسْفَلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَ قَالَ أُتِيَ عَلِيٌّ بِغُلَامٍ يُشَكُّ فِي احْتِلَامِهِ فَقَطَعَ أَطْرَافَ الْأَصَابِعِ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Hammad Bin Usman, from Al Halby, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘When the child steals, he would be excused from it. So if he repeats, he is rebuked. So if he repeats, the ends of the fingers are cut. So if he repeats, he would be cut lower than that’. And he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘They came to Ali<sup>asws</sup> with a boy, there was doubt with regards to him having bed-wetted yet. So he<sup>asws</sup> cut the ends of the fingers’.
