وقد إختلف الناس في عقوبته [اللوطي] على ثلاثة أقوال احدها أنها أعظم من عقوبة الزنى كما أن عقوبته في الآخرة أشد الثاني أنها مثلها الثالث أنها دونها وذهب بعض الشافعية إلى أن عقوبة الفاعل كعقوبة الزاني وعقوبة المفعول به الجلد مطلقاً بكراً كان أو ثيباً قال لأنه لا يلتذ بالفعل به بخلاف الفاعل

People differed on their [homosexuals’] punishment into three viewpoints. The first of these is that it is greater than the punishment for adultery, just as their punishment in the hereafter is stronger. The second is that it is similar. The third is that it is less. Some of those of the Shafi’i school are of the view that the punishment of the one doing it is like the punishment of the adulterer, and the punishment of the one getting it done to him is a categorical flogging, whether he be a virgin or someone previously in marital relations. They say that it is because he does not get pleasure from the act, in contrast to the one doing it.
