The ruling on the active or passive participant in sodomy, and the evidence for the obligation to execute them in all cases, and the disagreement regarding the method of execution.

The Shaykh : In this verse, in this story, there is evidence that the one who commits sodomy is executed in every case. And so it is with the fornicator; he is not stoned unless he is a married man. That is, if he has married and had intercourse with his wife, and then he commits fornication, we stone him. The one who commits sodomy, even if he is a virgin, as long as he is of age and sane, is executed in every case. Listen, man, he is executed in every case, because sodomy, may Allah protect us from it, is the killing of manhood and the likening of the man to the woman, to the extent that the one who is acted upon begins to follow the males and says, by his state or by words, "O people, do it to him." And this is the destruction of society and corruption. For this reason, the most correct of the scholars' opinions is that the active and passive participants in sodomy are executed, even if they are both virgins. - Listen, man - and the hadith and he stated it generally. And Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, the ocean of knowledge and the scholar of the Ummah in his time, may Allah have mercy on him, said: "The Companions agreed that the one who commits sodomy is executed, whether he is the active or the passive participant, but they differed on how he is executed". Some said he is stoned with stones until he dies. Some said he is burned in fire; the fire is kindled and he is thrown into it. Others said he is thrown from the highest point in the city and followed by stones. So the disagreement is about what? About the type of execution, not about its origin. And this, O brothers, is what is established, so it is obligatory for the rulers, if sodomy is established between two persons, to execute them; it is obligatory, and if they do not, they have neglected one of the Shari'ah hudud (fixed punishments) and exposed their people to danger and calamity. Sodomy, O people, is an evil creation; Lot called it the great sin, so he said to his people: . Fornication is not called the great sin; it is called one of the sins . And in the execution of the one who commits sodomy is the revival of society; I do not say the revival of the bodies, but the revival of the meanings, the revival of manhood, so that people do not remain not knowing the male from the female in meaning. We ask Allah the Exalted to keep the lands of the Muslims away from sins and trials, whether apparent or hidden.
And I think the time is about to end, yes? Hmm? What is there? Fine, he says: It has entered the time for questions. Yes, but the problem is with the reader of the hadith. Yes, what? Will he be allowed? He is not allowed. The reading is for the brother; he is the one who reads, not you reading to us every day. He reads every day. It is not that I am the issue; it is an obligation. You were absent at the beginning, what do we do? If you did not come, would we remain without reading? What do we do? No, today we make it for the brother, yes, and tomorrow, if Allah wills, it is for you, yes. We started anew after this, heh heh, do not judge by yourself; judgment is not accepted from yourself. We read, even if it is a little, so that the decree is carried out.
The reader: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
Praise be to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, and upon his family and his Companions, and whoever follows them.
