Firstly: The crime of homosexualy is one of the greatt of crim, the worst of ss and the most abhorrent of eds, and Allaah punished those who did a way that He did not punish other natns. We will quote some of what he said: Bee the evil nsequenc of homosexualy are among the worst of evil nsequenc, so s punishment is one of the most severe of punishments this world and the Hereafter.

There are three pots of view: Abu Bakr al-Sideq, ‘Ali ibn Abi Taalib, Khaalid ibn al-Waleed, ‘Abd-Allaah ibn al-Zubayr, ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas, Maalik, Ishaaq ibn Raahawayh, Imam Ahmad acrdg to the more sound of the two reports om him and al-Shaafa’i acrdg to one of his opns, were of the view that the punishment for homosexualy should be more severe than the punishment for za, and the punishment is executn all s, whether the person is married or not.

Al-Shaafa’i, acrdg to the well-known view of his madhhab, and Imam Ahmad acrdg to the other report narrated om him, were of the view that the punishment for the homosexual should be the same as the punishment for the adulterer. Imam Abu Haneefah was of the view that the punishment for the homosexual should be ls severe than the punishment for the adulterer, and is a punishment to be termed by the judge (ta’zeer). Those who favoured the first view, who are the majory of the ummah – and more than one scholar narrated that there was nsens among the Sahaabah on this pot – said that there is no s that brgs worse nsequenc than homosexualy, and they are send only to the evil nsequenc of ku, and they may be worse than the nsequenc of murr, as we shall see below sha Allaah.

E., that the evil nsequenc of homosexualy are worse than those of murr) is the fact that the se of murr, Allaah giv the next of k the choice: if he wish he may have him executed and if he wish he may let him off, but He enjoed executg the homosexual as a hadd punishment, as the panns of the Msenger of Allaah were unanimoly agreed, and as is clearly dited by the Sunnah of the Msenger of Allaah (peace and blsgs of Allaah be upon him) and there is no evince to the ntrary; rather this is what his panns and the Rightly-Guid Caliphs (may Allaah be pleased wh them all) did. ‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas said: The hight pot the town should be found and the homosexual should be thrown head first om , then ston should be thrown at him.

He cursed those who do a variety of major ss, but he did not curse any of them more than once, but he repeated the curse for the homosexual three tim.

The panns of the Msenger of Allaah (peace and blsgs of Allaah be upon him) agreed unanimoly that the homosexual is to be executed, and none of them differed ncerng that.

Anythg that transgrs s lims: a great s), and an evil way (that leads one to hell unls Allaah Fiv him)” [al-Isra’ 17:32] and what He says about homosexualy (terpretatn of the meang): “And (remember) Loot (Lot), when he said to his people: Do you m the worst s such as none precedg you has mted the ‘Aalameen (mankd and jn)? When Allaah mentned za, He scribed as a “great s” (faahishah – fe) among other great ss, but when He mentned homosexualy, He lled “the worst s” (al-faahishah – fe). Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said: Wh regard to homosexualy, some of the scholars said that the hadd punishment for is the same as the hadd punishment for za, and was said that is ls than that.

The crime of homosexualy is one of the greatt of crim, the worst of ss and the most abhorrent of eds, and Allaah punished those who did a way that He did not punish other natns. Bee the evil nsequenc of homosexualy are among the worst of evil nsequenc, so s punishment is one of the most severe of punishments this world and the Hereafter.
