Clearly you haven't read Surah al Maidah, a Medinan verse (which cannot be abrogated) which legislates the punishment for the thief:DR-YALAXOOW wrote:agreedunion wrote:You can't chop off people's hands period.![]()

1400 years ago even pre non muslims society like arab pagans and romans even greeks they use to practise chopping hands for theft . so choping hand for tuuganimo was not invented by Muslims.it was common practise in that time society thousends years ago.
its like SLAVERY. quran and hadiith says you can own people. but today no man practise buying and selling people like 1400 years ago. therefore chopping hand is nothing to whit islam.
"As for the thief, the male and female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they earned as a deterrent from Allah. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise." Surah 5:38
Abrogation of verses in the Qur'an was mainly for Meccan verses (99%) simply because of the great transition from the Muslims being a subject peoples under occupation and persecution in Makkah TO a nation which the Prophet (SAW) is a leader and statesman in which legislation and Law become imperative. So dont get confused, anyone who believes that cutting off the hands is barbaric has DISBELIEVED in Allah and His Messenger (SAW).
