Punishment for Stealing

SUMMARY: Stealing is a serious crime and should be punished accordingly.

Narrated 'Aisha: The Prophet said, "The hand should be cut off for stealing a quarter of a Dinar".
حَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مَيْسَرَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الأَنْصَارِيِّ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ بِنْتِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، حَدَّثَتْهُ أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ حَدَّثَتْهُمْ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ يُقْطَعُ فِي رُبُعِ دِينَارٍ

QUICK LESSONS:
Respect other people's property and do not steal anything from anyone .

EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught that stealing is a serious crime and should be punished accordingly. He said that the hand of someone who steals even a quarter of a dinar should be cut off. This shows how seriously the Prophet ﷺ viewed theft, as it was considered to be one of the most severe punishments in his time. It also serves as an example to us today, reminding us that we must not take any form of stealing lightly and must take steps to prevent it from happening in our society.
