Is there a ghusl for theft? With evidence mentioned?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The thief is not required to perform a physical washing, but rather to cleanse his sin through sincere repentance and by returning rightful possessions to their owners. The proof for this is the Prophet's (peace be upon him) supplication: "O Allah, wash away my sins with snow, water, and hail."
