It was narrated that Ayman said: "The hand of a thief was not be cut off during the time of the Messenger of Allah except for the value of a shield, and the value of a shield in those days was a Dinar". (Daif)
The Prophet Muhammad taught us that we should not take away someone's right or property without due cause, and if someone does commit such an act then they must face consequences according to Islamic law. This hadith serves as an example of how justice can be served in an equitable manner, while still respecting human rights and dignity.
