Transgenders clearly had a place in early muslim society:

Every action that was done by our noble Prophet (s.a.s.), every advice and every order from him included an inherent balance, an undescribeable harmony. When he cursed the (wrongdoing) poets and musicians with their lewd songs and their sinful rhymes he also offered to them a better place in the great scheme of the world.
