as salam a`alamanitaba`al hoda HabibHibee
first off you are most welcome to our board. I see that masriamulimah and sisterjennifer already covered a lot. Further to explain regarding lashing and chopping off hands, don't u comply to traffic regulations paying fines when u violate them. Do u say oh no this is unfair or cruel. Does not a thief spend sometime in jail according to magnitude of crime. Well, punishments are punishments. we must comply to something. Dont u think so?
I suggest u read more Quran, Read Chapter 2, it is a long one though. just divide it and read it. Still we are more than ready to answer any questions u have. If u do have questions bring them here. Insh aAllah we shall answer.
