so by your logic, all gays should recieve a death sentence?
well...the Quran...dosnt mention the punishment for homosexuals or homosexual intercourse....but it mentions the punishment for adultery...which is lashes....but we are talking about homosexuals here....so what we can do is we can look through the books of Hadiths...and the meaning of Hadiths is (statements) of the companions of those who saw the prophet Mohammed SAW (sahaba) or the generation that were born after the prophet Mohammed SAW passed away (tabiun) to understand and get closer to the true teachings of the prophet Mohammed SAW....now you have to know that the Hadiths is not the word of God it is the word of men...and they make mistakes just like us and they also fought each other...both sides believed that they were fighting for the right....and there was also those Bedouins who joined...not because of true faith....but because they saw the Muslims wining wars against the most powerful tribe in Arabia the Quraish tribe...and this what caused the wars of apostasy after the prophet Mohammed SAW passed away.....those Bedouins left Islam and every tribe wanted his own prophet....and they didn't wanna pay tax anymore to the Khalif Abu Baker Al-sedeek.......so there was enemies from the beginning....so be careful when you study Hadiths....the Quran should always come first...and the Hadith should be for research
now about the homosexuals....they are mentioned in 2 hadiths...and one of them tells you how the prophet Mohammed SAW dealt with him...
Narrated AbuHurayrah:
A mukhannath (homosexual) who had dyed his hands and feet with henna was brought to the Prophet. He asked: What is the matter with this man? He was told: Apostle of Allah! he affects women's get-up. So he ordered regarding him and he was banished to an-Naqi'. The people said: Apostle of Allah! should we not kill him? He said: I have been prohibited from killing people who pray. AbuUsamah said: Naqi' is a region near Medina and not a Baqi (in other words not referring to Jannat al-Baqi' cemetery.[1]
Sunan Abu-Dawud, Book 41, Number 4910:
so in my opinion...they should take away the nationality of a homosexual.....and have him move to California....you guys can have him
and now lets go back to the Hadiths and why you have to research it carefully....I will give you an example....lets talk about stoning....there is a few hadiths about the Jews who lived under the Islamic state and they caught one of their own committing adultery...and they had to follow the Torah......and there is another Hadith that was narrated by Aisha
[Narrated 'Aisha] "The verse of the stoning and of suckling an adult ten times were revealed, and they were (written) on a paper and kept under my bed. When the messenger of Allah expired and we were preoccupied with his death, a goat entered and ate away the paper."
BINGO.....there was NO papers during the time of the prophet Mohammed SAW.....paper was introduced to the Arabs 400 years after he passed away....the companions wrote the Quran on animal skin....on stones...and even animal bones....this Hadith is fabricated by someone.......now you have to know that the shia sect they HATE Aisha RAA....because she was the military commander during the battle of the camel....and she fought Ali ibn abi Talib RAA
Quran 45
6. These are the verses of Allah which We recite to you in truth. Then in what statement (HADITH) after Allah and His verses will they believe?
Quran 2
106. We do not abrogate a verse or cause it to be forgotten except that We bring forth [one] better than it or similar to it. Do you not know that Allah is over all things competent?
Quran 10
58. Say, "In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy - in that let them rejoice; it is better than what they accumulate."
59. Say, "Have you seen what Allah has sent down to you of provision of which you have made [some] lawful and [some] unlawful?" Say, "Has Allah permitted you [to do so], or do you invent [something] about Allah ?"
60. And what will be the supposition of those who invent falsehood about Allah on the Day of Resurrection? Indeed, Allah is full of bounty to the people, but most of them are not grateful."
