The list of hadiths on Conditions of implementing Prescribed Punishments

Sahih/Authentic by virtue of its parallel channels of transmission and supportive narrations A father is not to be killed for killing his child Authentic hadith Cutting (off hands) does not apply to a traitor, an usurper, or an embezzler Good chain of narrators Whatever a needy person eats without putting any in his pocket (and taking it away), there is no penalty on him. But whoever takes something away, he must pay a fine of twice its value and receive punishment. Whoever steals something after it has been stored properly, and its value amounts to the price of a shield, his hand must be cut off Authentic hadith I was sleeping in the mosque while covered by a Khamīsah cloak of mine whose price was thirty dirhams. A man came and snatched it away from me. The man was seized and brought to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) who ordered that his hand should be cut off
