Unchangeable hodud (determined corporal punishment) in Islam

Despite some determined hodud and corporal punishments for some especial crimes are much earlier background than Islam, and the Prophet`s emphasis is on the implementation of their unchanged penalties, and the opposition of the Jews around Medina to their conversion, nowadays, it has being heard that some people are proposing a theory of changing Islamic punishments. Since stability and immutability of Islamic hodud (as the first percept) is according to the jurisprudential method and the certainties of all the Islamic sects, there was no doubt that it would be proved. For this reason, it appears that the mentioned idea has been provided without attention to the background of stability of hodud and without full access for reasons of them. As a result, for possibility of evaluating such a theory, it seems necessary that the evidence that can be the basis of the jurisprudents` opinion is briefly - and as much as a paper - to be considered and explained. Accordingly, for the first time, this paper has provided 17 evidence that according to the method of jurisprudence and philosophy of the precepts, the principles of jurisprudence and theology can indicate the immutability of the hodud punishments.
