Respect other people's belongings and possessions; Be mindful of your own possessions; Ensure justice prevails in all cases.

This hadith explains that theft is not punishable if the stolen item is worth less than a shield. A shield was considered to be of a respectable price in those days and hence any theft of an item worth less than that would not be punished. This hadith teaches us to be mindful of our possessions and also to respect other people's belongings. It also shows us that justice should prevail and no one should be punished for something they did not do or something which does not deserve punishment.
