as salam a`alamantibaral hoda
Solidad, u r talking about pentalites:
Stealing will get the person's hand to be chopped off.
Fornication: If one is married, shall be stoned to death (both of course male or female), however, for the crime to be confirmed, 4 people (men) must observe the two parties in the act to the extend that a thread shall not go through between them. Or the perperturator goes and reports him/herself willingly looking for the punishment.
If one is not married shall be subjected to be flogged 80 lashes in public.
Murder: If the murder was deliberate, one's head shall be chopped off.
If it was due to an accident: to the best of my knoweldge, the amount of 4 k of gold must be paid to the family unless they pardon.
as for one who is preaching somehow debatable ideas, Soledad we are all commanded to learn and seek knowledge as much as possible. Each one is fully responsible before Allah for he / she writes or say. In other words, unless what one say is slanderous to Allah or the Messenger, which in such case must be killed if a Muslim, we just must be causious of what we read, hear or see, verify and try to learn the correct info.
Hope I was of help. wallah u a`alem (Allah knows best)
What ever is correct is from Allah and whatever is wrong is from me and Shaytan
