(33) Indeed, the penalty for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger and strive upon earth [to cause] corruption is none but that they be killed or crucified or that their hands and feet be cut off from opposite sides or that they be exiled from the land. That is for them a disgrace in this world; and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment. (34) Except for those who return [repenting] before you apprehend them. And know that Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
Some people from 'Ureinah came to Medina and were uncomfortable. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) sent them with the camels of charity and said: Drink their milk and urine [as medicine]. They killed the shepherd appointed by the Messenger of Allah (PBUH), drove away the camels, and apostatized from Islam. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) brought them and cut off their hands and feet on opposite sides, branded their eyes, and threw them into Al-Harrah field. Anas said: I saw one of them biting the ground with his mouth until they died.
