مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ سَأَلْتُهُ عَنْ قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَمَنْ دَخَلَهُ كانَ آمِناً قَالَ إِنْ سَرَقَ سَارِقٌ بِغَيْرِ مَكَّةَ أَوْ جَنَى جِنَايَةً عَلَى نَفْسِهِ فَفَرَّ إِلَى مَكَّةَ لَمْ يُؤْخَذْ مَا دَامَ فِي الْحَرَمِ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ مِنْهُ وَلَكِنْ يُمْنَعُ مِنَ السُّوقِ وَلا يُبَايَعُ وَلا يُجَالَسُ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ مِنْهُ فَيُؤْخَذَ وَإِنْ أَحْدَثَ فِي الْحَرَمِ ذَلِكَ الْحَدَثَ أُخِذَ فِيهِ. 
3. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn abu Hamzah who has narrated the following: “I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah , about the meaning of the words of Allah, ‘Whoever enters it he gains immunity. 5 (3:96) He (the Imam) said, ‘If a thief steals something in a place other than Makkah or commits a crime against his own self, then flees to Makkah, he cannot be arrested in al-Haram (the sacred area) until he comes out. However, he can be stopped from going to the market places, selling, buying and from sitting with people until he goes out of al-Haram (the sacred area), then he can be arrested, but if he commits such things inside al-Haram (the sacred area) he can be arrested and taken in custody. ‘“
