Reattaching the amputated hand in the hadd punishment for theft via a surgical operation
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
There is no god but Allah, and among the smallest of His blessings.
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: If a hand is amputated as the hadd punishment for theft, is it permissible to reattach it through a surgical operation?
The Shaykh:
No, how can it be cut off and then you reattach it for him? So what is the outcome? It does not balance out. Allah has rendered it void, and you are reattaching it? Yes.
