Read the whole surah

إِنَّمَا جَزَٰٓؤُاْ ٱلَّذِينَ يُحَارِبُونَ ٱللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُۥ وَيَسۡعَوۡنَ فِي ٱلۡأَرۡضِ فَسَادًا أَن يُقَتَّلُوٓاْ أَوۡ يُصَلَّبُوٓاْ أَوۡ تُقَطَّعَ أَيۡدِيهِمۡ وَأَرۡجُلُهُم مِّنۡ خِلَٰفٍ أَوۡ يُنفَوۡاْ مِنَ ٱلۡأَرۡضِۚ ذَٰلِكَ لَهُمۡ خِزۡيٞ فِي ٱلدُّنۡيَاۖ وَلَهُمۡ فِي ٱلۡأٓخِرَةِ عَذَابٌ عَظِيمٌ

Rowwad Translation Center

The penalty[1] for those who wage war against Allah and His Messenger, and spread corruption in the land[2], is that they should be executed, or crucified, or their hands and feet amputated on opposite sides, or banished from the land[3]. This is a disgrace for them in this world, and for them in the Hereafter, there will be a great punishment.

Notes

[1] Legal retribution. [2] i.e., commit acts of violence and terrorism against individuals or treason and aggression against the Islamic state. [3] This verse details the penal code for such acts as highway robbery and banditry, known as hadd al-hirābah (the penal code of waging war).
