Islamist preacher Yassin Muni told worshipers at a London mosque that sex between men is a "crime" for which both men should be executed under Sharia law.

Mooney discusses various methods prescribed by scholars, including execution by sword or throwing the men off a tall building before stoning them.

"Queers for Palestine", which is very active in London and across the UK, has not issued any statement. The sermons were uploaded by the Hackney Islamic Community Centre, known as Masjid Imam An-Navi, but have since been removed from YouTube.
