The questioner : If he only steals...
The Shaykh : Yes, their hands and feet are cut off from opposite sides.
The questioner : Yes, the right hand and the right foot are cut off.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : ...the right one, for example.
The Shaykh : Cutting them off.
The questioner : The right hand is cut off.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : So how is it, when the crime is one...
The Shaykh : Did they take the money or did they not take the money?
The questioner : They took the money.
The Shaykh : They took the money along with the cutting of the hand.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, we cut off their hands and feet from opposite sides; we cut off the right hand.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : No, it has not been cut off yet; up to now we are holding them.
The questioner : No, I meant... the right foot and the left hand are cut off.
The questioner : Very well.
The Shaykh : Okay, ...
The Shaykh : Okay, the right hand is cut off, and it is cut off for two reasons.
The questioner : ... .
The Shaykh : Yes, because the location is one... like if retaliation and stoning were obligatory on him, for example. Of course, if retaliation is a right belonging to a human being, and he says, "I want to take retaliation," we say he takes retaliation and the stoning is dropped.
