Chopping Off The Hands As Punishment For Robbery
Chopping Off The Hands As Punishment For Robbery
Islam prescribes chopping off the hands of the convicted robber. The Glorious Quran says in Surah Maidah: As to the thief, male or female, cut off his or her hands: a punishment by way of example, from Allah, for their crime: and Allah is Exalted in power, full of wisdom.
[Al-Quran 5: 38]
