حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنِي حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَيَّاشِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ الْقِتْبَانِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ شِيَيْمِ بْنِ بَيْتَانَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَيَزِيدَ بْنِ صُبْحٍ الْأَصْبَحِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ جُنَادَةَ بْنِ أَبِي أُمَيَّةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ كُنَّا مَعَ بُسْرِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ فِي الْبَحْرِ فَأُتِيَ بِسَارِقٍ يُقَالُ لَهُ:‏‏‏‏ مِصْدَرٌ قَدْ سَرَقَ بُخْتِيَّةً فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ لَا تُقْطَعُ الْأَيْدِي فِي السَّفَرِ وَلَوْلَا ذَلِكَ لَقَطَعْتُهُ .

We were with Busr bin Artat on the sea (on an expedition). A thief called Misdar who had stolen a bukhti she-camel was brought. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم say: Hands are not to be cut off during a warlike expedition. Had it not been so, I would have cut it off.
