The Problem with Today's Justice System
โ Questions That Must Be Answered
- If a thief steals a thousand dollars from you, and they put him in prison, what do you get?
- If the thief has a wife and children, what is their crime?
- Why should they be deprived of their father?
The Quran solves this problem, as well as the problems associated with the criminal justice systems prevalent in today's world.

How the Quran Handles Theft
According to the Quranic criminal justice, the thief who is convicted of stealing a thousand dollars from you must work for you until you are fully paid for the thousand dollars you lost, plus any other damage and inconvenience the theft may have caused you.

Expensive Prison System Eliminated
Imprisonment is a cruel and inhumane punishment that has proven useless to all concerned.
The Thief's Hand: Marked, Not Cut Off
๐ Correcting a Common Misconception
โ Common Belief
The thief's hand shall be cut off (severed)
โ
Quranic Truth
The thief's hand shall be marked
Thank God for His mercy and His mathematical miracle in the Quran!
Mathematical Proof: "Marked" Not "Severed"
๐ข The Mathematical Miracle Confirms
Marking the hand of the thief
5 + 38 = 43
Women who "cut" their hands admiring Joseph
12 + 31 = 43
Both Equal 43!
In 12:31, the women obviously did not sever their hands โ no one can do that. They merely cut/marked their hands. The same word, the same mathematical total = the same meaning.
Additional confirmation: 19 verses after 12:31, we see the "cutting of the hand" again.
Basis of Punishment in Submission (Islam)
Adultery: The Truth vs. The Blasphemy
โ ๏ธ Stoning is NOT God's Law
โ Hadith & Sunna (Blasphemy)
Stoning to death for married adulterers
โ
God's Law (Quran)
Whipping in public โ a hundred symbolic lashes
The basic punishment is social pressure and scandalizing the criminal. Whipping in public achieves this goal.
Murder: The Quran Discourages Capital Punishment
โ๏ธ Dealing with Murder
"The Quran definitely discourages capital punishment."
"The free for the free, the slave for the slave, and the female for the female"
This Means Strict Equivalence:
If a woman kills a man โ Capital punishment cannot apply
If a man kills a woman โ Capital punishment cannot apply
If a slave kills a free person โ Capital punishment cannot apply
If a free person kills a slave โ Capital punishment cannot apply
๐ฐ
Compensation Preferred
The Quran prefers that the murderer compensate the victim's family. The compensation must be sufficient to be a deterrent for others.
๐
Execution Doesn't Help
Killing the murderer does not bring the victim back, nor does the family of the victim benefit from executing the murderer.
Who Decides the Punishment?
๐จโโ๏ธ The Victim's Role in Justice
In Submission (Islam), the victim and/or the victim's family are the judges for all crimes; they decide what the punishment shall be under the supervision of a person who knows the Quran.
Summary
The Quranic criminal justice system is based on equivalence and social pressure, not cruel imprisonment. For theft, the criminal must work to fully compensate the victim โ not go to prison where no one benefits. The mathematical miracle proves that "cutting" the thief's hand means marking, not severing (5:38 and 12:31 both equal 43). Stoning is NOT God's law โ adultery's punishment is public whipping (24:2). For murder, the Quran discourages capital punishment and prefers compensation. The victim and/or their family decide the punishment under Quranic guidance.
