As a Muslim, you appreciate that your belief in Islam, and the notion of obedience to your creator Allah (swt), causes you to behave in a certain way. Your taqwa (fear of Allah) will motivate you to leave what is prohibited (haram), and do what is obligatory (fard). Thus it will automatically help to prevent you and other Muslims around you from committing crimes, like theft, mugging, drug abuse etc. - these are all haram.

For the Muslim, the issue thereafter becomes not weighing up the risks of committing a crime for which there is a possibility of being caught. Instead it is a matter of facing the punishment of the Hellfire, which Allah (swt), the All-Knowing, All-Seeing, prepares for those who go astray!
