Hafiz Muhammad Ameen
"Return it" — In this crime, there is allowance that if the offender later returns the item, he may be pardoned. However, in the case of theft, there is no such allowance; rather, once the crime is established, under no circumstance can pardon be granted, and the hand will be cut.
