    So, in conclusion we see that because of the 4 reasons mentioned above and the example of Joseph and his brothers in the Quran we conclude that the punishment for theft is to take away the resources and power of the thief and make him pay back all the cost to the person whose goods he stole. However, if he repents (539) Allah forgives him.

    Peace,
    What do you mean by take him away? Do you mean Jail Him?

      Peace Belh,

      If any of the readers chooses to reject the supporting evidences from the Torah and Injeel that support that Abraham had Two Wives, and Abraham Had Built the Restricted House for people to make Hajj too, then they deserve to be Led Far Astray by EVIL.

      Even assuming that the Injeel and Torah you refer to are the same Injeel and Torah talked about in the great reading (which they are absolutely certainly not), the great reading is the one that is "muhaymin" (controlling/superceding) on them. So here we have a contradiction between what the great reading says and what the supposed Torah and Injeel (which they are really not) say. Who do we believe? Clearly, we believe the great reading. The god never says that the Torah or Injeel complete the great reading as you falsely believe and provide the more detailed gossip about the two wives and a bunch of other gossip that the god forgot to include to make stories more interesting. You need to focus on what is important and leave aside useless gossip that is not even fit for old ladies.

      Peace,

      Ayman

        I recommend you to re-read my post; especially the following bit

        the punishment for theft is to take away the resources and power of the thief and make him pay back all the cost to the person whose goods he stole. However, if he repents (539) Allah forgives him.

        I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

          You need to be rational when arguing about God's words...

          Where in the Quran does God Says the Torah and Injeel are corrupted?
          Where in the Quran does God Says Abraham had one Wife, which if said, I would agree with you that the existing Torah and Injeel are wrong?
          Where in the Quran does God Say the Hajj is not to Jerusalem, which if said, I would agree with you that the existing Torah and Injeel are wrong?

          If you cannot provide the supporting Quranic verses that support your argument, then You are Leading yourself and others Far Astray.

            Had Joseph known that God's punishment for theft is marking or cutting hands (which his brothers would have apply), he would not scheme that way in order to keep his brother with him.

            Good point! Yet another problem for BelH's view..... but only if he clarifies who knew about the plot... if he says Joseph knew (as he seems to imply), then he'll have to explain how Joseph knew the sons of Jacob would say what they did and not the above. As I have already pointed out.

            Looking forward to see what BelH comes out with next..... if he answers of course.

            All information is correct to the best of my knowledge only and thus should not be taken as a fact. One should always seek knowledge and verify for themselves when possible: 17:36, 20:114, 35:28, 49:6, 58:11.

              Peace Belh,

              But even many of the Arabic meanings have been lost. For example, your meaning of "kaaba" being some building or hill or rock or whatever in Jerusalem is different to the Sunni meaning of it being a cube in Mecca. So according to you, for them the meaning was lost. They would also say that you lost the meaning. So as you can see, even in the original Arabic, like translations, people can understand the same word in two completely different ways.

              Peace,

              Ayman

              You do not need to underestimate the Great Reading and its ability to deliver a Clear Message...If a meaning is not clear in one verse, the other well-established verses will complete its meaning.

                I believe I answered most of your points before; however, as I said, You cannot use this story to cancel out the well-established meaning of 5-38. Not only the story did not Have a real thief, but Also the fact that God changes the Punishments and laws of the previous books in the Quran.

                Moreover, I do not understand your request clearly.

                  Peace all,

                  This is to everyone who claims that Today's Torah and Injeel are not the Words of God.

                  If I catch you again, giving your Sweet Words to the Christians and Jews whom join the Forum, by telling them that they are Moslems if they Follow their Books, then I will not have mercy, and I will expose your other side (as I could have done now, but I decided not to).

                  Peace

                    As Ayman told you before they are full of hearsay. Ahmet Deedat was once asked if the bible was Gods word and how do we know its Gods words. He replied the part of the book that God speaks directly is Gods words, the rest is hearsay

                        Looking forward to see what BelH comes out with next..... if he answers of course.

                        Furthermore, he has to explain how it is possible to cut three or more hands of one thief.
                        It is crystal clear from 3145 and 5147 that "aydi" can mean/means "resources"/"means"/"power"/"might".

                        You cannot use this story to cancel out the well-established meaning of 5-38.

                        Is this your fatwa?

                        Besides, I put the following in bold for a reason, in first post

                        3927 We have cited for the people in this reading from every example, that they may take heed.

                        Here is some more

                        1741 We have cited in this Quran so they may remember, but it only increases their aversion!

                        1789 We have cited to the people in this Quran of every example, but most of the people refuse to be anything but ingrates!

                        1854 We have cited in this Quran every example for the people. But the human being is always most argumentative.

                        3058 We have cited for the people in this Quran of every example. If you come to them with a sign, those who rejected will say, "You are bringing falsehood!"

                        3059 It is thus that God seals the hearts of those who do not know.

                        Not only the story did not Have a real thief

                        Was it a "fake thief", then?

                        Anyway, it is irrelevant, since the punishment is still described

                        1273 They said, "By God, you know we did not come to cause corruption in the land, and we are no thieves!"

                        1274 He said, "What shall be the punishment, if you are liars?"

                        1275 They said, "The punishment is that the person who has it in his bag shall himself be held as penalty. It is such that we punish the evildoers."

                        but Also the fact that God changes the Punishments and laws of the previous books in the Quran.

                        Correct, but not for theft, among other things. Are you sure that you have read my first post fully? I recommend re-reading it again. Pay special attention to the following

                        Someone would argue that was God's theft law for previous communities and we are not bound by it. Well, when God wants to change something, He specifies it (2187). Furthermore, Quran specifies when some laws do apply only for some communities (1611 and therefore we are not bound to apply them.

                        Furthermore, why would God give us the/an/a example/story of Joseph explaining the punishment for theft if it wouln't apply to us? Does this make sense to you? Does God want to confuse us? Please refer back to the verses which I have quoted in bold font above.

                        This is to everyone who claims that Today's Torah and Injeel are not the Words of God.

                        If I catch you again, giving your Sweet Words to the Christians and Jews whom join the Forum, by telling them that they are Moslems if they Follow their Books, then I will not be mercy with you and I will expose you (as I could have done now, but I decided not to).

                        "Today's Injeel" ??? What/where is "today's Injeel"?

                        I am no longer a Sunna-rejecter. See 4:59-65, 62:2-4, 3:31, 4:156, 7:157 Messenger teaches and is to be followed and obeyed. Examples of revelation received which is not in the Qur'an: 3:123-126, 33:37, 2:187, 66:3, 62:9.

                          1275 They said, "The punishment is that the person who has it in his bag shall himself be held as penalty. It is such that we punish the evildoers."

                          Wrong translation...moreover, which arabic word in 1275 means "Held".

                          God revealed the Hoodood (the Laws) that we need to punish others in the Quran, in a very Clear and well-established meaning...5-38 word by word translation clearly says "Cut their Hands". If you think the word by word translation does not convey your Understanding (which is yours and can be different from others), then do not change the True translation, as the Suni did with 24-2, rather, write your comments as a footnote.

                          Peace

                            You have definitely not paid attention to what others and I have written. Anyways, continue with your "cut their three or more hands" interpretation, if you like, and ignore all the evidence/points that have been brought forward in this discussion.

                            122 We have sent it down as an Arabic reading, so that you might encompass it with your reason and intellect.

                            1789 We have cited to the people in this reading of every example, but most of the people refuse to be anything but ingrates!

                              you still did not answer my question how would you go about enforcing the thief to work and repay what was stolen, especially if he needs to work to repay 50 billion dollar? Would you leash him so he will not run away, and what kind of job would make him earn 50 billion dollar?

                                I am sorry I do not have much knowledge of the bible, but only what I have been told or seen on lectures. God willing I will read more to reseach for myself one day. Of what I have read I could not accept e.g. making partners to God. So I am inclined to accept that the Bible has been corrupted in one way or another. But as I say more knowledgable brothers have read it and studied it for many years and what I know of it is through them at present.

                                Peace

                                  That's a traditional story, it's not supported in the Qur'aan. As far as we know, based on the Qur'aan, both Ishmael and Isaac were born of the same mother (i.e. Sarah).

                                  Could you please tell me more about that? Like articles and verse numbers?
                                  I always found it strange that the Quran mentions Ibrahim's wife, but never mentions her name, but it also could be that I overlooked it.

                                    Me too, I did not have much knowledge of Torah and Injeel because I relied on the Suni and Shia opinion until I started to investigate by myself.

                                    Please do the job by yourself...Here were you can find word by word translation for the Torah and Injeel

                                        You welcome! Remember, The Quran should be your guide to know the true words of your Lord when reading the other books ( there shall be no contradiction between the Books).

                                        May God increase our Knowledge.
                                        Peace

                                          Does knowing the name change anything? Will it lead to guidance?
