The answer

Scholars have unanimously agreed on the prohibition of tribadism (lesbianism) among women, and Ibn Hajar counted it among the major sins. It has been reported that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Tribadism is the fornication of women among themselves." It is also said that the women of Lot's people perished because of this act. Whoever practices tribadism must repent to Allah, increase in good deeds such as prayer, remembrance of Allah (dhikr), and charity (), distance herself from bad company and temptations to sin, seek out righteous companionship, and strive to mend her marital relationship.
