Respect other people's property

This hadith explains that theft is not punishable if the stolen item is of low value. It was narrated by 'Aisha and it states that a thief's hand was not cut off for stealing something cheaper than a Hajafa or a Turs which are two kinds of shields each worth a respectable price. This hadith teaches us to be mindful of our possessions and to respect other people's property. It also teaches us that there should be consequences for wrongdoings but only when it is necessary and appropriate. We should also remember that justice should always be served in an equitable manner regardless of the value of the stolen item.
