Musannaf Ibn Abi Shayba 19:848

Abu Bakr narrated to us, he said: Muhammad ibn Bakr narrated to us, from Ibn Jurayj, he said: Ma’mar informed me, from Khasif, he said: A people missed some of their goods from their house, and they saw a hole in the house. They went out looking, and behold, two men were running. They caught one of them, who had their goods with him, and the other escaped from them. He said: So they brought him [to the authorities], and he said: "I did not steal anything; rather, this man who escaped hired me and handed these goods to me to carry for him. I do not know where he got them from." Khasif said: So they wrote about this to Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz. He wrote back that he should be punished (ta’zir) and imprisoned for life, and that his hand should not be cut off.
