This is gross. Amputating a man's hand for adultery? This is inhuman savagery! And just because he screwed a woman who is not his wife?? So fu@kin' what? What's the big deal if it was consensual sex? He could have been given imprisonment for a couple of years instead. But this? It sucks!

Popular or common ?

Losing your hand couldn't be popular I expect.

It does not appear to be even the 20th Century - its like the 18th Century.

Muslim justice of several muslim countries seems stuck at mideaval punishments, something we here in the west would like to see upgraded. For instance, a man can still commit new financial crimes with 1 hand. He can't when he's in prison (our way of dealing with these offenses).

rules are rules don't do it if you cant face it

Humans are unpure creatures that commit acts such as adultery. Punishments like these are good stop it.

Financial terrorists deserve severe punishment. I hear Iran is doing good job on cracking down on them if i'm not mistaken. In the West, they get bonusses with taxpayer bailouts.

I don't know. If you give such punishments, you should also give it to the ruling class when they steal. This is the problem with political islam, it's like the US system. Normal people get punished, ruling elite always escapes punishment.

I didn't say I would give THAT specific punishment myself. But offcourse everyone needs to get punished in the same way. This is one of the examples. they are not nobodies.
