Hadith.5103 - It is narrated from one of the two Imams (as) that Imam (as) said
"The hand of a thief is not to be cut off until he confesses to the theft twice. If he retracts his confession, he must compensate for what he stole, but his hand will not be cut off if there are no witnesses against him."
5103 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنْ أَحَدِهِمَا عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ
أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "لاَ يُقْطَعُ اَلسَّارِقُ حَتَّى يُقِرَّ بِالسَّرِقَةِ مَرَّتَيْنِ فَإِنْ رَجَعَ ضَمِنَ اَلسَّرِقَةَ وَ لَمْ يُقْطَعْ إِذَا لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ شُهُودٌ".
