Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : What do you say, Yahya, about a man?
[As for] the thief, the male and the female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they committed as a deterrent [punishment] from Allah. And Allah وَالسَّارِقُ وَالسَّارِقَةُ فَاقْطَعُوا أَيْدِيَهُما جَزاءً بِما كَسَبا نَكالاً مِنَ اللَّهِ والله
[Al-Ma'idah 5:38]
The reciter reads, "And Allah is the Forgiving, the Merciful," and the Bedouin said, "That is not how the verse goes; read it properly." He said, "Except
[As for] the thief, the male and the female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they committed as a deterrent [punishment] from Allah. And Allah وَالسَّارِقُ وَالسَّارِقَةُ فَاقْطَعُوا أَيْدِيَهُما جَزاءً بِما كَسَبا نَكالاً مِنَ اللَّهِ والله
[Al-Ma'idah 5:38]

Except for those who return [repenting] before you apprehend them. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Merciful. إلا الذين تابوا من قبل أن تقدروا عليهم فاعلموا أن الله غفور رحيم

The questioner : It was not dropped.

The Shaykh : It was not dropped? Why?

The questioner : For the human being... regarding his right... but the right of the human being, no...

The Shaykh : The right of the human being?
