Hadith.5115 - Al-Hasan ibn Mahbub narrated from Ali ibn Ri'ab from Zurarah from Abu Jafar Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir regarding a man who stole, and his right hand was cut off. Then he stole again, and his left foot was cut off. Then he stole a third time. Imam said: "Commander of the Faithful would imprison him for life and would say, 'I feel ashamed before my Lord (azj) to leave him without a hand to clean himself with and without a foot to walk with to fulfill his needs.'" Imam Al-Baqir added: "When Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib would cut off the hand, he would cut it below the wrist joint, and when he would cut off the foot, he would cut it from the ankle." Imam Al-Baqir also stated: "Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib did not believe that any of the prescribed punishments should be pardoned."
