He He said: Yes I did. He said: Take him and cut off his hands, then bring him here, So they cut off his hand then they brought him to him. He said to him; Say: I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him. He said: I seek the forgiveness of Allah and I repent to Him. He said:: O Allah, accept his repentance. (Daif)
