Chapter on the Legal Punishment for Theft
Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 4|Book 1|Chapter 12
وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ اَلسَّكُونِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: "لاَ قَطْعَ فِي ثَمَرٍ وَ لاَ كَثَرٍ وَ اَلْكَثَرُ هُوَ اَلْجُمَّارُ".
In the narration of Al-Sakuni, the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace be upon him and his family) said: "There is no cutting (of the hand) for stealing fruit or kathar." And kathar refers to the inner core of palm trees (Al-jummar).
