What do the hadith narrations of Aisha (peace be upon her) tell us concerning the punishments set by the Prophet Muhammad (saw) for someone accused of stealing something worth less than the price of a shield?
 Narrated `Aisha:                     A thief's hand was not cut off for stealing something worth less than the price of a shield, whether a Turs or Hajafa (two kinds of shields), each of which was worth a (respectable) price.
