Is transsexualism punishable by death in Muslim countries?
This is a moment for irony. Transsexualism is so beyond the pale in most Islamic Countries that there are not laws on the books for or against being a transsexual. The only exceptions are really Malaysia because of the presence of some Thai kathoeys, which would be seen as transwomen in transsexual society, and Bangladesh and Pakistan because of the presence of Hijras. Malaysia criminalizes the transsexuality, but with imprisonment, not death.) In Bangladesh and Pakistan, Hijras are recognized as a third gender and have certain benefits. This lack of laws in most Islamic countries is in contrast to homosexuality, which is within the "Islamic understanding" and has the death penalty in 9 Islamic Countries and is criminalized in over 20 others. That being said, while there may be no laws on the books making transsexualism illegal, transsexuals are not welcome in most Islamic World countries. Like other sexual minorities, it is sort of "accepted" for rogue bands to hurt, threaten, or murder them in the street if they are "too obvious". These types of incidents are typically not prosecuted as long as it is obvious that the victim is a sexual minority. This is not to say that there are not transsexual communities in Islamic Countries other than Bangladesh or Pakistan. (I would suspect Iran has the largest one because of Iranians' more cultured nature and Iran's large population.) It just happens that most of these communities are underground and hidden from public scrutiny and violence.
