      I looked at burglaries, saw Spain thinking "wow, Spain must be pretty nice" then I get to robberies.

        Peace

        Not sure about all these debates but Im for cutting hands. Its like Vlad The Impaler. He was cruel, but his crime levels were really low. The only problem is if the person really wasn't the thief, theres no way of making it up to that person.

        Peace

          What about those intellectuals who oppose hand cutting in the name of "Quran research"
          Philosophy of Quranic teaching is called "Hikma"

          3164
          (3164) Surely Allah conferred a great favour on the believers when He raised from among them a Messenger to recite to them His signs, and to purify them, and to teach them the Book and Wisdom. For before that they were in manifest error.

            Muslim countries are at the bottom of both lists, yet none of them applies the hand cutting. I think it has to do with believing that if the law does not see you, God does. An important effect of believing in an All-Seeing God.

              Are the Shariah laws not enacted in Saudi Arabia??

                Peace,

                I used this site when I wrote my (nowegian) article on hand cutting. I found that there are "muslim" countries, as Samia pointed out, with lower theft rates than S.A, without cutting of hands. In fact, if I remember correctly, the country with the lowest theft rate, does not cut off hands.

                    Take Buthan as an example..
                    They don't cut hands and it's a buddhist country.

                    Salam

                      I think the only two Islamic "theocracies" are SA and Iran. Others apply the shari3a law only in as much as family code is concerned (marriage, divorce, inheritance...)
