Those who commit unlawful sexual intercourse of your women - bring against them four [witnesses] from among you. And if they testify, confine the guilty women to houses until death takes them or Allah ordains for them [another] way.

Probably if I asked a Muslim in work if he considered this to be a justifiable punishment he would say no, that is if they're accustomed to western culture of not killing women who cheat on their husbands.  But it is in the quran 4-15.  
4:15. As to those of your women who commit sexual perversity, call in four of you to witness against them, and if they bear witness then confine them to their houses, until death overtakes them or Allâh makes for them a way out.

Yeah, finding four witnesses to honestly attest to seeing a married woman have unlawful sex is pretty rare. Also it says to confide them to their home, not to murder them. It also says to punish men who do the same.

Peace

Faith in selfless Unity for Good.
If you confine someone to a building until death overtakes them it's probably considered murder, maybe neglect causing death, something along those lines.
I haven't read the Quran saying to confine men to houses until death overtakes them, I'm not claiming that it doesn't, but which verse is that?


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
