Breach of Trust __socratesPageHistoryEdit Visual Text BREACH OF TRUST. Arabic خيانة khiyanah. The punishment of amputation of the hand is not inflicted for a breach of trust. And if a guest steal the property of his host whilst he is staying in his house, the hand is not cut off. Breach of trust in Muslim law being a less offence than ordinary theft, the punishment for breach of trust is left to the discretion of the Judge. (Hamilton's Hidayah vol. ii, pp. 93-102.)
