Atiyyah (may Allah have mercy on him) says that Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) recited this saying of Allah, the Lord of Honour: "The only recompense of those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and run about spreading corruption in the land is that they be killed or crucified, or that their hands and their feet be cut off from opposite sides," until he (may Allah be pleased with him) had recited the whole verse. And he said: "When a man fights, kills and also takes property, one of his hands and one of his feet are to be cut off from opposite sides and he is to be crucified. When someone kills and does not take property, he is to be killed. When he takes property and does not kill, one of his hands and one of his feet are to be cut off from opposite sides. And when he neither kills nor takes property, he is to be banished from the land."
