Important Words:
نکالا (an example) is derived from نکل. They say نکل بفلان i.e. he inflicted on him such a punishment as to make him an example for others (Aqrab).
Commentary:
All punishment, if wisely directed, should serve a twofold purpose: (1) to inflict pain on the offender so as to make him reform in future; (2) to make it a lesson for others so that they may beware of falling into a similar error. But, as the latter part of the verse points out, only such men benefit by punishment as are God-fearing.

وَٱلسَّارِقُ وَٱلسَّارِقَةُ فَٱقْطَعُوٓا۟ أَيْدِيَهُمَا جَزَآءًۢ بِمَا كَسَبَا نَكَٰلًا مِّنَ ٱللَّهِ ۗ وَٱللَّهُ عَزِيزٌ حَكِيمٌ
这节经文中, “凡男女盗窃的” 这几个字中, 男在女之前, 因为男人偷窃的事情比女人偷窃的更为常见, 而在24:3经文中, 女私通者这个单词放在男私通者之前, 因为私通这种罪行女的比男的更容易犯。用词方面的这种安排, 说明 «古兰经» 文中不仅在各节经文间存在着充满智慧的安排顺序像在别处所表示者, 而且在单词与单词之间也有这样的顺序。对偷窃所规定的惩罚似乎太严厉了些。但是, 人们的经验告诉我们, 惩罚如果有威慑性, 就会有警戒性。对一个人严厉而挽救了一千个人, 比放纵所有的人而毁灭了许多人要强。一个在切除一条已腐烂的肢体来挽救一个人整个身体之前毫不犹豫的医生, 肯定是一个好的外科医生。在伊斯兰教最盛时期, 切割窃贼双手的事例非常非常少, 因为规定的惩罚是有威慑性而且是真正要执行的。即使在今天, 执行 «古兰经» 中所规定的有关偷窃的惩罚的阿拉伯土地上, 偷窃的事件也是非常稀少的。为了对这一惩罚的性质有一正确的理解, 必须知道对这里用的两个单词 قَطْع (Qat‘) 和 يَدْ (Yad) 的直义和隐喻的用法。قَطَعَهٗ بِالْحُجَّةِ (Qata‘a-hu bil-Hujjati) 这一阿拉伯习用语的意思是, 他用论据使他哑口无言 (Lane)。而 يَدْ (Yad), 除了别的以外, 意思是做某一事的能力。因此, قَطَعَ يَدَه (Qata‘a Yada-hu) 这一短语隐喻的意思是他剥夺了他做这件事的能力; 或他制止他做这件事。见12:32。鉴于这两个单词的这种意义, 这节经文中用的阿拉伯习用词的意思可以是 “剥夺他们犯偷窃罪的能力或使用任何
0特意计划的实际方法来制止犯偷窃罪。” 从这节经文的直义看, 经文中所规定的惩罚是极大的惩罚, 而极大的惩罚只给予那些极罕见的案例, 较小的惩罚是采用实际的方法来剥夺或制止罪犯的能力。在给予惩罚时, 也必须考虑所有当时情况的性质和范围。而且, 使用 اَلسَّارِقْ (as-Sariq) 这个单词--------它是一个名词, (而不使用动词 سَرَقَ (Saraqa, 他偷了), 含有剧烈程度的意思, 意指一个惯偷或值得特殊考虑的犯了偷窃癖的罪犯。学者们对于偷窃多少数目的钱财才给予规定的惩罚这点上意见不一。但按照一些传统做法, 这个数目是三迪拉姆或第纳尔的四分之一, 按照另外一些学者的意见, 从树上偷果实或在旅途上犯偷窃罪, 是不切断手的。(Dawud) 教长阿布·哈尼法 (اَبُوْحَنِيْفَهْ, Abu Hanifah) 认为十个迪拉姆 (دِرْهَمْ, dirhams), 而教长马立克 (مَالِكْ, Malik) 和教长沙菲 (شَافِعِی, Shafi‘i) 认为三个迪拉姆是最小的数目。宗教家们的这种意见方面的差异表明, 审判者在给予刑罚的形式和轻重方面可以有许多决定的自由。
Whereas in this verse the words the man who steals have been put before the words the woman who steals because stealing is more common among men than among women, in 24:3 the word fornicatress precedes the word fornicator because the guilt of fornication can more easily be proved against women than against men. This arrangement of words shows that there exists not only an intelligent order in the verses of the Qur’an, as shown elsewhere, but also an intelligent order in its words. The punishment prescribed for stealing may appear to be too severe. But human experience shows that punishment, if it is to be deterrent, should be exemplary. It is better to be severe to one and save a thousand than to be indulgent to all and ruin many. He certainly is a good surgeon who does not hesitate to amputate a rotten limb to save the whole body.

The punishment prescribed for a thief in this verse may appear to be too severe in the sight of those who are swayed by false sentiments. But the experience of the world shows that punishment, if it is to be deterrent, should be severe and exemplary. It is better to be severe to one and save a thousand than to be indulgent to all and ruin many. The God of Islam would not make Muslims spoilt children. When Islam was in power, there were very few cases of the cutting-off of the hands of thieves for the obvious reason that in view of the deterrent punishment prescribed by Islam there were very few cases of theft. Nowadays, however, when false sentiment prevails, thieves are given a light punishment, with the result that cases of theft are appallingly on the increase. He is certainly not a good surgeon who hesitates to amputate a rotten limb and thereby destroys the whole body.
As for the definition of the word ید (hand) ‘Ali, Son-in-law and Fourth Successor of the Holy Prophet, holds that only the fingers of a thief are to be cut off (Ma‘ani, vol. ii, p. 304); while most scholars are of the view that the hand is to be cut off at the wrist.
Theologians differ as to the least amount of money or property stolen for which the prescribed punishment is to be inflicted. Imam Abu Hanifah held it to be ten dirhams, while Imam Malik and Imam Shafi‘i considered three dirhams or a quarter of a dinar to be the least amount, dirham and dinar being old silver and gold coins respectively. Both the above views are based on different interpretations of the sayings of the Holy Prophet.
A dirham or a drachm (dram) is believed to be one-sixteenth part of an oz. in avoirdupois weight or one-eighth part of an ounce in apothecaries weight, while a dinar is equal to 71 and a half barley-corns (Lane and New Standard Dictionary).
