5. Why Islamic Laws are so strict?
Because Islam aims at creating a society in which
none is compelled by the force of circumstances to
steal. For, in the Islamic social order, apart from the
voluntary help provided by individuals, the state
guarantees the basic necessities of life to all. . But,
after providing all that, Islam enjoins a ruthless and
exemplary punishment for those who commit theft,
as their action shows that they are not suitable to
live in such a just, generous and healthy society and
would cause greater harm to it, if left without
punishment.
