The Hadith and homosexuality: The Hadith are collections of sayings attributed to Muhammad. Many Hadiths (ahadith) discuss liwat (sexual intercourse between males). Two examples are:
“When a man mounts another man, the throne of God shakes.”

         "Kill the one that is doing it and also kill the one that  it is being done to." (in reference to the active and passive partners  in gay sexual intercourse)


         There is at least one mention of lesbian behavior  mentioned in the Hadith: "Sihaq (lesbian sexual activity) of women is  zina (illegitimate sexual intercourse) among them."


         Traditionalist orthodox Muslims generally claim that the  Hadith literature contains the authentic sayings of Muhammad.

@Bipolar_Chick

and you said one treats it just like zina or adultery . well do you know that the punishment for zina or adultery is stoning to death. which still happens in saudi arabia where culture has does not interfere with the religion like it does in other countries around the world.

I think pretty much I gave you my answer.

If all of that above were so black and white then Hanafi school (largest) would not differ from others.

Even for it being equivalent to Zina there are three opinions. Equal to Zina, less than Zina or more than Zina.

Besides there is no punishment sanctioned in Quran for this act (homosexuality) despite condemnation.

Only the punishment of Loot was mentioned. No orders given in Quran like for Zina etc.
