He told him that he had heard the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم say: The hand is not to be cut off for taking fruit or the pith of the palm-tree. The man then said: Marwan has seized my slave and wants to cut off his hand. I wish you to go with me to him and tell him that which you have heard from the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم.
