Muslim Ummah. They regard the power and influence of this weapon as
more effective than a thousand assault rifles. Hence, they have
inundated us with showers of temptations and drowned us in the seas of
sexual desires.
They concluded that "You raise youths in Muslim lands that have no
connection with Allaah The Almighty. Hence, they become as we wish:
they do not care much for important matters, prefer rest and laziness
and their only concern is to fulfill lustful desires.So when they earn
any money or assume high positions, they do so only for the sake of
these desires." This is what they wanted all along. They found a lost
weapon in this sexual drive in order to exterminate us after they
could not do so in wars.
Their widespread trade among usbecome anything related to sex. Our
enemies realized that there isno means to destroy this Ummahexcept by
fighting this religion that calls for chastity, purificationand
modesty. Hence, the mechanism of their defamatory accusations against
Islam, its Book and verses is intensified by saying: It (Islam) calls
for suppression, impotence and resists emotions.
Strongest instinct:
The sexual instinct is the strongest instinct in humans. Allaah The
Almighty Made marriage the lawful means to satisfy this desire. Allaah
The Almighty Says (what means):#{And of His signs is that He created
for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquility in them;
and He placedbetween you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs
for a people who give thought.}## [Quran 30:21]
Allaah The Almighty installed this instinct in human nature, man and
woman, in order to reproduce and multiply. Islam places regulations,
limits and rulings for this instinct so that human reproduction will
not be chaotic, lineages will be preserved from any confusion and
mankind will be protected from Satan and his schemes.
Views on sex:
The point of view of men and women to sex differs according to the
different stages of life. Sex has a special status in the lives of
young men and women despite their innocence, clarity and inexperience.
This is especially true when they proceed from thestage of childhood
to the stages of puberty, adolescence and then adulthood. They seek
the truth behind many unknown matters, want to be familiar with them
and desire to know what is done by the adults behind closed doorsAll
of them desire to have relations with the other sex.
As a result, they become obsessed with thinking about theissue of sex
and entertain taking the matter into their own hands. Many problems
may ensue if parents do not assume their role of guiding and preparing
their children for the new social role that they will adopt. Parents
should extend to their children scientific and religious books
thathelp culture them so that they have a better understanding of this
issue. And it is incumbent that parents think well of their children.
Treatment of this desire:
The youth should observe the Islamic principles and teachings. The
young woman should wear clothing compliant with the Sharee'ah. She
should be chaste and pure and avoid indecent mingling with men. She
should not spread temptations by displaying her beauty lest those who
have disease in their heart covet her.
Young men should be mindful of Allaah The Almighty and not gazeat what
Allaah The Almighty has made unlawful. They should avoid mingling with
the oppositesex and not witness displays thatarouse sexual instincts
such as pornographic films, photos in magazines, and other similar
forms of visual or printed mass media if it contradicts the Sharee'ah
of Allaah The Almighty.
Islam prescribed the treatment to release this desire in the hastening
of marriage for those who are capable. Otherwise, one should persevere
through obedience and fasting if incapable.
Sexual activity is viewed in a different manner after marriage since
it becomes a permissible right that is practiced in a way that pleases
Allaah The Almighty. Thus, there is no perversion or sexual deviation.
Etiquette for the Married Couple:
Islam provides much etiquette for the married couple that must be
observed during sexual intercourse in order to achieve the goal that
is hoped as a result of it. Some of these etiquettes are:
- To mention the Name of Allaah The Almighty before having
intercourse. The Prophet instructed us to say: ~"Bismillaah,Allaahumma
Jannibna As-Shaytaan wajannib As-Shaytaan ma razaqtanaa.' (In the Name
of Allaah, O Allaah, keep Satan away from us and from our
offspring.)"~~ [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
- Islam has safeguarded that the couple deals with each other in a
pleasant manner, show strong emotions and are gentle with each other
so that each can enjoythe other. This is in order to achieve chastity
for both and to satisfy their mutual desires.
- Islam encourages cleanliness and purification and that they adorn
themselves in dress and scent for one other.
- Islam encourages keeping this affair private between the couple and
that everything which happens between the couple during intercourse is
kept strictly between them.
Islam does not look down upon sexual drive as some people may think or
call for shunning it. There is no monasticism in Islam.Rather, Islam
views the sexual drive as a natural human instinct but sets etiquettes
and limits for it in a manner that guarantees itspurity and
consistency. Thus, the society of the Message (Islam) and Da'wah
(calling to Islam) remains pure and clean.
