What are the preconditions for cutting hands of a thief?

If someone is found to be guilty of theft, there applies Islamic law concerning theft; that is, the hand should be cut off from the wrist joint.

“[As for] the thief, the male and the female, amputate their hands in recompense for what they earned [i.e. committed] as a deterrent [punishment] from Allah. And Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise.” [Quran 5:38]

Now my questions are,

  • Does this apply to all cases of theft, or are there certain preconditions?
  • Which are the countries where this law is applicable?
  • Is there any record of how many people got this punishment? (country wise where this rule applies)
