Q 4: What is the meaning of
lesbianism? Is there any punishment for it?
A:
Lesbianism stands for homosexuality between females. It is forbidden and those who commit it have to be punished with Ta`zir (discretionary punishment) and not Hadd (ordained punishment for violating Allah's Law). (Part No. 22; Page No. 70) May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
