Why do we not apply the ruling of sodomy to lesbianism regarding the death penalty?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A woman having intercourse with a woman: why do we not apply the ruling of sodomy to them and execute them?

The Shaykh : That is not valid, because first, there is an explicit text regarding sodomy, and second, the difference between them is that sodomy involves sexual pleasure and penetration, whereas this does not.
