(1) Cutting off their hand, is metaphorical prose. It means prevent them from stealing until they repent and reform themselves.
(2) Slavery was never allowed. What was to be done with war captives, was they were to be ransomed or freed during war but once the war terminates, there are no captives, and hence all to be freed. Malakat aymanihim refers to marriage and muta, and when put side to side with marriage, is hence, referring to Muta.
(3) If verses can seen not to cancel one another, but in light of each other, explain one another, then the latter should be upheld. The punishment for adultery per one verse means confining them to their house till death takes them or God finds a way out for them. It's possible lashes is metaphorical and refers to the amount of time required to be in the house. Each day, is hence, metaphorically a lash. The verses then would be saying the same thing, one from view point of how many days, and the other from the general vantage point and where about. The other requirement is that believers ought to witness their punishment and hence, their identity revealed in public and their sin become known.
(4) Verses about apostates, shows, if they are not fighting the believers of that time, and offer peace, to be let go.
(5) The reason why women get less inheritance, is obvious, the man is required to give dowry to a woman, and at the same time, God wants men less influenced by the wealth of the women when seeking a woman, but not the other way. There are reasons for that, but mainly, to do a lot with how women judge character better and read emotions better. Men are already influenced primarily by looks, while women by character, and hence adding wealth motivation for men regarding women, will make a bad situation worse.
(6) The reason why a woman is emphasized to seek a 2nd witness in particular case (this doesn't refer to witnessing crimes), is because women brains work differently in memory and remember things by association better and are better emotionally for that. One woman can easily remind another woman if they were both there, while, if a man forgot something, chances are another man reminding him of it, will make him assume the other man is lying (in the case of financial dealings and money).
(7) The reason why hell is forever and harsh, is because, God is the severest in punishing where it's proper, just as he is the most compassionate and forgiving in places of compassion and mercy. This easily seen as everything comes from God, even anger yet anger because it's used selfishly often and out of Satanic or irrational reasons has a bad reputation. But Anger and retribution, itself, has a proper place as well.
(8) Why disbelievers deserve it is because goodness is love that is guided and loves things as they truly are and seeks to know God and his beloved chosen and the believers. The opposite is hate and envy towards God's light, and the holy kings and their believers. The latter deserves hell as it's oppressive, dark ,and evil.
