What is the religious stance on homosexuality, is it permissible to sever ties of kinship with a homosexual, how should one deal with them, and do they inherit if they are a male who exhibits effeminate behavior?

We have already discussed homosexuality. As for severing ties with and shunning a homosexual, this depends on what is most beneficial. If it deters and restrains him, then that is appropriate. However, if it will lead him to further indulgence and obstinacy, then shunning him is not suitable. Nevertheless, he must be advised and prohibited from his actions kindly. As for his inheritance, he inherits as a male inherits, not as a female inherits.
