Although many Muslims today claim that a transsexual should be punished severely, there is no such report from Muhammad's life. In fact, even long after the time of the Prophet (Muhammad), Muslims accepted the mukhannathun in the sacred boundaries of Islam.

'In one case the people brought a mukhannath before Muhammad (s.a.s.) to let them be punished. Muhammad sent the mukhannath away to an oasis out of Madinah. The people then asked: "Apostle of Allah, should we not kill him?"

He said: "I have been prohibited from killing people who pray!", sparing the mukhannath and, even more, accepting them as a fellow praying Muslim.'
