What is the ruling on reading Surah Ya-Sin multiple times with the intention of taking revenge on the thief?

The questioner:
The questioner says: When some items are stolen, the owner resorts to reading Surah Ya-Sin in a specific manner.

The Shaykh:
If, what is it? When some items are stolen, the owner resorts to reading Surah Ya-Sin. Multiple times.

The questioner:
He means more than once in a specific manner. What is the ruling on this? And is it a means of taking revenge on the thief?

The Shaykh:
This has no basis. This practice has no basis. The thief is sought out, the security authorities search for him, and he is brought before the court. If he confesses or evidence is established against him, the hadd (fixed punishment) is carried out: the hand of the male thief and the female thief is cut off. [The verse states:] "So cut off the hands of the male and female thief as a punishment for what they have earned—a retribution from Allah. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise." So you must report to the security authorities to apprehend the thief. As for reading something from the Qur'an on the belief that it will bring the thief or that it will harm the thief, this has no basis. Yes. And this is not a cause for achieving the intended result. Yes. Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, says regarding the male and female thief, "cut off their hands." He did not say, "Read Ya-Sin to the male and female thief." Yes.
