Bismihi Ta'ala

It is very encouraging to see your regrets over your past sins, and your zeal and keenness to put it right.

You do not have to repay them with money. You may buy them a gift of the same value and gift it to them with the intention of compensating for the stolen items. Also, repentace for your actions is a must. Allah is all forgiving.

And Allah knows best
Mufti
