I really need to start proofreading before clicking the buttons.
Here’s Qaradawi on a typical rant. Who knew there was a Gay ME blog? He/she/they must be fast runners.
Quote (there’s lots more if you click the link):
“A homosexual should be given] the same punishment as any sexual pervert – the same as the fornicator…The schools of thought disagree about the punishment. Some say they should be punished like fornicators, and then we distinguish between married and unmarried men, and between married and unmarried women. Some say both should be punished the same way. Some say we should throw them from a high place, like God did with the people of Sodom. Some say we should burn them, and so on. There is disagreement…The important thing is to treat this act as a crime.”

Qaradawi received exactly 0 reproaches from other Muslim clerics for this view because it’s undisputed in Islam.
