Aisha; the wife of Allah Apostle ﷺ ; reported that the Quraish were concerned about the woman who had committed theft during the lifetime of Allah Apostle ﷺ ; in the expedition of Victory of Mecca. They said: Who would speak to Allah Messenger ﷺ about her? They again said: Who can dare do this but Usama Bin Zaid; the loved one of Allah Messenger ﷺ ? She was brought to Allah Messenger ﷺ and Usama Bin Zaid spoke about her to him interceded on her behalf. The color of the face of Allah Messenger ﷺ changed; and he said: Do you intercede in one of the prescribed punishments of Allah? He Usama said: Messenger of Allah; seek forgiveness for me. When it was dusk. Allah Messenger ﷺ stood up and gave an address. He first glorified Allah as He deserves; and then said: Now to our topic. This injustice destroyed those before you that when any one of high rank committed theft among them; they spared him; and when any weak one among them committed theft; they inflicted the prescribed punishment upon him. By Him in Whose Hand is my life; even if Fatima daughter of Muhammad were to commit theft; I would have cut off her hand. He the Holy Prophet then commanded about that woman who had committed theft; and her hand was cut off. Aisha further said: Hers was a good repentance; and she later on married and used to come to me after that; and I conveyed her needs and problems to Allah Messenger ﷺ.
