The spokesperson for the judiciary says that the fate of those who commit oppression on earth is nothing but the gallows.
Setayeshi mentioned that in the realm of warfare, there are Quranic principles, such as verse 33 of Surah Al-Ma’idah, which states that the punishment for those who fight against God and His Messenger and commit oppression on earth is nothing but to be hanged, or to have their hands and feet cut off on opposite sides, or to be exiled.
What is mentioned in the noble jurisprudence regarding warfare supports the consensus of jurists on the essence of warfare.
Jurists have defined two behaviors as warfare: one is drawing weapons against people with the intent to frighten, and the other is seizing someone else’s property openly or by force.
