We have received many questions from Muslims who live in the west in
this regard; the following are two examples:
· I live inCanada. My sister has a bisexual boyfriend and does
not see any problem in this; she even goes with him to a gay
nightclub. She also believes that we should accept this type of person
in our community. What should I do?
· I discovered that my forty year old husband has been, for the
past two years, sleeping with a boy who comes to our house
occasionally, although he does not know that I have found out. He is a
person who performs his prayers and confirms that he is sexually
satisfied by me. What should I do?
Dear brothers!This is a married man who is committing this wicked sin!
How perverted can a person get? How heedless can a person become?
Indeed he is cursed by Allaah as the Prophetsaid:"Allaah has cursed
the one who commits the act of the people of Loot )i.e.
sodomy(."]Ahmad[
The Islaamic ruling on sodomy:
The consensus of the Companionshas been recorded in this regard that
the one who commits this sin must be executed. However, there are
variant views from them on how to execute the perpetrator. Some of
them ruled that it should be by beheading him with a sword, others
ruled that it be by stoning to death, while a third group held the
opinion that it should be by burning to death. There is another group
that has ruled that it should be done by taking the perpetrator of
this evil crime to the highest point in the area he resides, and then
hurling him off from there, head down, while being stoned as he falls
and after he hits the ground, until he dies; this was the opinion of
Abu Bakrand 'Ali. There is also a view that such people should be
executed by placing them in a house that is then demolished with them
inside it.
The Prophetsaid:"Kill the one who does it )i.e., sodomy( and the one
to whom it is done."]At-Tirmithi & Others[ Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd, may
Allaah preserve him, said: "There is no indication in the narration of
the person being single or married, and thus it covers all people."
How are such sinners to be dealt with?
The one who commits this grave sin must repent before death strikes
him, as he would otherwise be subject to the wrath and curse of
Allaah, as well as the loss of both, this life and the Hereafter.
He must be advised and reminded that Allaah is watching him and that
Satan is keen to misguide him. He should remember that one day he may
become a father who would despise anyone attacking his children in
this way.
Imaam Ibn Al-Qayyimsaid:"Sodomy brings nothing but regret, sorrow and
diseases that are almost impossible to survive. It also makes one's
countenance dark and gloomy, and causes the light of guidance to
vanish from his heart. It )i.e., sodomy( becomes so evident on his
face that people would recognize this as soon as they see him. The one
who commits this sin will never survive the punishment that will
follow unless Allaah has predestined for him to repent. It results in
the blessings of Allaah upon him vanishing and being replaced by
curses and hardships. It also makes him more daring in committing more
evil and shameful deeds, and thus causes his humiliation."
Modern science has proved that this act has a very negative effect on
those who do it, such as damaging the nervous system, the brain, and
the sexual organs, as well as causing liver infections, which is in
addition to AIDS.
How does a person repent from this sin?
· Sincere repentance and remaining steadfast upon it.
· Supplicating to Allaah for assistance.
· Frequently asking forgiveness from Allaah.
· Continual mentioning of Allaah.
· Increasing in acts of worship and obedience.
· Optional prayers, as Allaah Says )what means(:"…Indeed,
prayer prohibits immorality and wrongdoing…"]Quran 29: 45[
· Keeping righteous company.
Whenever the slave sincerely repents to Allaah and continues
supplicating to Him for forgiveness, Allaah will certainly protect and
preserve him. Imaam Ibn Taymeeyyahwas asked whether the one who
repents from this act must inform others, his reply was:"If he truly
repents, Allaah will forgive him without him having to publicize his
act."
Allaah Says )what means(:"And those who do not invoke with Allaah
another deity or kill the soul which Allaah has forbidden ]to be
killed[, except by right, and do not commit unlawful sexual
intercourse. And whoever should do that will meet a penalty.
Multiplied for him is the punishment on the Day of Resurrection, and
he will abide therein humiliated – Except for those who repent,
believe, and do righteous work. For them Allaah will replace their
evil deeds with good. And ever is Allaah Forgiving and Merciful. And
he who repents and does righteousness does indeed turn to Allaah with
]accepted[ repentance."]Quran 25: 68-71[.
Additionally, one may get married after sincerely repenting in order
to protect himself from sinning further.
