No, he says that you shall not commit murder. God has made it very clear that the penalty for sin is death, therefor transgressing a law punishable by death is not murder.
christians typically translate this commandment as thou shalt not murder, and then define murder as unjustified killing.this is how they justify war, death penalty, and eating meat. but they usually don't realize it also causes the commandment to become meaningless because everyone agrees unjustified killing is unjustified. it's like saying bad things are bad, it's definitionally true.

"I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off. "
finger tips mean our fingerprints in the verse talking about the resurrection.
Here's another translation:
[8.12] When your Lord revealed to the angels: I am with you, therefore make firm those who believe. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them.
how is something so simple so capable of creating so many translations?![]()
Nothing exists in Sura 8 that says so.
Neither such thing exists in Sura 12
But I think you are just copy-pasting from some propaganda site that doesn't even know what the Quran contains, but to give you the benefit of the doubt, I think I know where a similar verse is located:
Sura 47, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh
Quote:( 4 ) So when you meet those who disbelieve [in battle], strike [their] necks until, when you have inflicted slaughter upon them, then secure their bonds, and either [confer] favor afterwards or ransom [them] until the war lays down its burdens. That [is the command]. And if Allah had willed, He could have taken vengeance upon them [Himself], but [He ordered armed struggle] to test some of you by means of others. And those who are killed in the cause of Allah - never will He waste their deeds.
You are bringing me a war verse, and apply it to peace times?
https://quran.com/8
