Mohamed and Homosexuality

[Wilikon]

O.K. why is it that homosexuality is such a problem with religious conservatives when he never directly condemned it, but they can get divorces, fight wars, judge people, and hold wealth when Mohamed did condemn it.

 


EDIT:

The pink mafia is allergic to islam.

This thread is an answer to that thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=781161.0

It is so much easier to attack Christians when you know no one will push a fatwa for your beheading. You can make movies, paintings, big threads on bitcointalk and whole Broadway shows attacking Christians. When they open their mouths "Hey! Look! See! How those Christians are evil? Told ya!".

If only the pink mafia was undeviating no matter the religion on this planet.

According to the Islamic laws, homosexuality is not only a sin, but a crime as well. Interpretations vary in different countries and sects, but in most of the Islamic nations (Iran, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sudan.etc), homosexuality carry the death penalty by default.

But it is quite interesting to note that none of the gay rights activists have voiced against the oppression faced by homosexuals in these Islamic nations. On the other hand, they have organized boycott against Russia, where homosexuals are far more tolerated.

+1. I don't know whether he is proud but he did copy!

You can see how the wars started. Muslims were forced to do the war. If you check the battlefields, then you can see the Muslims were closer to battlefields and the enemies were too far from the fields. At that time where there is no airlines and all, I will say they are tooooo far. They came to battlefields after walking and riding to just attack Muslims. And, when Muslims won, they didn't killed the prisoners of the war, they taught them how to write and read and if they have the knowledge, they were subjected to teach children. You can see how nicely they treated the prisoners. Divorces are good thing in l some situations but the thing is greatly hated by god and prophets. A person can only make divorces until there is no other choices that the couples can't tolerate each other. There is many steps before they make divorces like talking with wife etc...  Homosexuality is worst thing. If one started being homosexual then the love between the couple will eventually lost. It is a try scientific fact. Islam always try to potect the love from being lost or broken. Evry bad things must be prevented. If you have anything to ask, please free feel to ask.

Ahmadinejad Admits Iran Has Homosexuals, Just Not as Many Because “It’s Against Human Spirit and Humanity”


TEHRAN — Iran’s hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday that homosexuality is “against the human spirit,” the ILNA news agency reported.

In a 2007 speech at New York’s Columbia University, he notoriously said “in Iran we don’t have homosexuals like in your country,” skirting a question about the treatment of gays in the Islamic republic. infamously

He was met with howls and boos from the audience and his remarks were later widely criticised by rights groups.

Addressing officials in the city of Yazd on Thursday, he said: “They asked me (at Columbia) why you crack down on homosexuals in Iran? I answered we don’t have so many homosexuals in Iran because we believe this act is against the human spirit and humanity.”

Gay sex is banned and punishable by death under Iran’s sharia-based law.

Kenya: Muslim Leaders Ask Government To Introduce Death Penalty For Gays…


(Times Live) — Muslim leaders in Kenya have called on the government to introduce the death penalty for homosexuals and to boycott their businesses, media reports said Monday.

“Death is the only punishment prescribed by Islam for such people as done in China and Iran,” the Daily Nation quoted Sheikh Mohammed Khalifa, of the Council of Imams and Preachers of Kenya, as saying.

“We are asking Kenyans to shun businesses owned by such people and further show them open discrimination as a way of stopping the beastly act,” he told reporters at an anti-homosexual workshop.

“They grossly abuse rights of others and should not be accepted among the society,” he said.

The workshop was attended by more than 150 madrassa teachers and was called to address the problem of sexual abuse of boys.

Another participant at the work shop, Sheikh Majid Obeid also blamed Kenya’s recent drought on “illicit activities.”

“The rising cost of living and drought are due to the behaviour of these Kenyans who are not ready to change,” he said.

Iranian Soccer Players Face Public Lashings For Post-Match “Groping”…

TEHRAN — Two Iranian soccer players who engaged in “inappropriate” celebratory behavior during a game broadcast on national television might face public lashings on the pitch, the semiofficial Fars News Agency reported Tuesday.

Members of parliament, sports officials and judges have called for the “swift punishment” of Mohammad Nosrati and Sheys Rezaei, two soccer stars who play for one of Iran’s most popular clubs, Tehran-based Persepolis.

After one of their teammates scored the winning goal of a 3-2 match on Saturday, ending a long losing streak, Nosrati pressed his hand into Rezaei’s behind as they and their teammates jumped on one another in celebration.

As millions watched on television, Nosrati appeared to be trying to push his hand between Rezaei’s buttocks. It remained unclear Wednesday whether Rezaei had engaged in a similar action earlier in the game.

Iran’s football federation immediately suspended both players for an unspecified period and fined them nearly $40,000 each, Fars reported. According to the federation’s Web site, the ban is indefinite because a final decision cannot be made until “other authorities” are consulted.

Iran: Homosexuality A Plot By The Zionist Regime To Control The World…


BERLIN – A report in a state-controlled Iranian paper last week asserting that the “Zionist regime” “spreads homosexuality” across the globe in order to pursue its goal of world domination has sparked fierce criticism from experts on Iran because of its homophobia and anti- Semitism.

Mashregh News, an outlet affiliated with radical Islamists in Qom, wrote that the US and the UK are using money from Jews to spread homosexuality throughout the world. The article blasted Israel for promoting demonstrations for gay rights and specifically decried Tel Aviv as the gay paradise on earth. It also ridiculed Conservative Judaism for accepting gay rabbis, and urged Western governments to stop people from engaging in gay – and therefore immoral – actions, and provide medical treatment for homosexuals in order to stop their conduct.

Writing on Monday on the gay website GGG, Chris Karnak said the Mashregh item “reads like an article from the Nazi agitation paper Der Stürmer.”

Dr. Wahied Wahdat-Hagh, an expert on minority groups in Iran, told The Jerusalem Post on Tuesday that the article is “against gays, against the West and anti-Semitic.” He added that “the text legitimizes the execution of gays in Iran; they made a text not only to ridicule the West but to provide a reason why Iran executes gays.”

Study: Pakistan World Leader For Google Searches Of Gay Porn, Highest Number Of Hits Comes From Areas Dominated By Conservative Islam…


According to Mother Jones magazine, surprising data reveals Pakistan, one of the world’s least tolerant nations toward gays, is the world leader for Google searches of gay porn.

This month, the Pew Research Center published results of a public survey of gay tolerance in 39 countries worldwide, the question being “Should society accept homosexuality?”

Among the least tolerant nations surveyed was Pakistan, where only 2 percent of those surveyed said
society should accept homosexuality.

But surprisingly, according to Google Trends Pakistan is by volume the world leader for Google searches of the terms “shemale sex,” “teen anal sex,” and “man fucking man,” Mother Jones found.

According to the article, in Pakistan, the highest number of hits for some of these terms, including “shemale sex,” come not from Pakistan’s cosmopolitan centers, but from Peshawar, a bastion of conservative Islam, lately known in the West as a counterterrorism frontline.

Pakistan Blocks Gay Website For Being “Against Islam”…


Islamabad (AFP) – Pakistan’s Internet watchdog has blocked the deeply conservative Muslim country’s first website aimed at gay people, saying it was “against Islam”.

The queerpk.com site, set up to help members of Pakistan’s homosexual and transgender community socialise and share experiences, was shut down on Wednesday.

A spokesman for the Pakistan Telecommunications Authority said they had halted access to the site after complaints from Internet users.

“We blocked the website under the law because its content was against Islam and norms of Pakistani society,” said spokesman Kamran Ali.

Homosexuality is illegal in Pakistan.

Queerpk.com’s moderator, who asked not to be named, said he would not challenge the ban in the courts for fear of a “negative reaction”.

“We wanted to provide a platform for people who are being abandoned by society because of their sexual likes,” he told AFP.

“I was not hopeful about the future of the website, I was convinced that sooner or later it would be banned.”

Yemen: Islamist Gunman Executes Man Suspected of Being Gay…


(AFP) — A Yemeni security official says a gunman in the southern province of Lahj killed a man suspected of being gay, the latest in a series of attacks on homosexuals in the country.

Eyewitness Ahmad Hadi said that Waleed Saleh Awedan, 25, was shot by a man riding a motorbike near his home on Monday evening. The official spoke anonymously because he was not authorised to brief reporters.

At least 34 people have been killed in similar attacks in the past two years, many in the southern provinces, which have been under intermittent Al Qaida control. Homosexuality is a crime in Yemen.

Also on Tuesday, the security director of Aden province, Najib Al Moughlis, said that two soldiers were killed in a firefight between security forces and unknown attackers.

Nigerian Islamic Court Puts 11 Men Accused of Being Gay On Trial…


An Islamic court in Nigeria’s northern state of Bauchi has put on trial 11 Muslim men accused of being homosexuals in violation of their religion, a religious leader has told the BBC.

A 12th person arrested – a Christian – would be tried under secular law, a BBC reporter says.

Under Islamic law, a person can be sentenced to death by stoning if convicted of homosexuality.

It is also illegal to have gay sex in Nigeria, according to its secular laws.

Earlier this month, President Goodluck Jonathan signed a parliamentary bill which tightens laws against homosexuals, banning same-sex marriages, gay groups and shows of same-sex public affection.

The new legislation applies across Nigeria, affecting all citizens.

Most states in the predominantly Muslim north of Nigeria have adopted Islamic law, known as Sharia, since the end of military rule in 1999.

Nigerian Islamic Court Convicts Man of Being Gay, Lashes Him 20 Times…

BAUCHI, Nigeria (AP) — A young man convicted of sodomy was whipped 20 times Thursday in a northern Nigerian Shariah court.

Though Mubarak Ibrahim was found guilty under Shariah law, it is the first conviction of a gay man in Nigeria since President Goodluck Jonathan signed a bill that further criminalizes homosexuality under the West African nation’s Western-style penal code.

Activists believe the new law has whipped up homophobia and endangers gay people in a country where lynchings and mob justice are common.

But the Muslim Rights Concern group on Thursday said it was “the other way round as the practice of homosexualism and lesbianism is most capable of instigating widespread hatred and turning society upside down.”

Obama Regime Lets Muslim Leader Who Preaches Killing Gays, Jews Into U.S. To Raise Money For Islamist Militias In Syria


Even as the Obama administration denounced what it called anti-gay legislation in Arizona and the president sat out the Sochi Olympics because of Russia’s crackdown on same-sex couples, the State Department allowed an Islamic preacher who called for the death penalty for homosexuals into the country for a tour of hate.

Sheikh Mohammad Rateb al-Nabulsi was issued a visa for a 17-city tour of US mosques to raise money and support for the Syrian uprising. He arrived New Year’s Day.

The radical Syrian cleric has made no secret of his virulent anti-gay views. Appearing April 28, 2011, on al Aqsa TV, the official network of the Hamas terrorist organization in Gaza, al-Nabulsi said: “Homosexuality involves a filthy place and does not generate offspring. Homosexuality leads to the destruction of the homosexual. That is why, brothers, homosexuality carries the death penalty.”

Top Egyptian Islamist Party Says New Constitution “Promotes Incest And Homosexuality”…


Jama’a al-Islamiya has accused the 50-member constitutional committee of launching a war aimed at eliminating Islam, pointing to proposed amendments to Article 3 of the Egyptian Constitution.

The article stipulates: “For Egyptian Christians and Jews, the principles of their religious law will be the main source in regulating their personal status, matters pertaining to their religion, and the selection of their spiritual leadership.”

Toying with this article, and therefore giving freedoms to the laws of non-Islamic faiths without specifying details, could lead to permissive behaviour in Egypt like approving incest or same sex marriages, Jama’a al-Islamiya claimed in a statement acquired by Egypt Independent.

The group said the suggested article would give freedoms to domestic laws for atheistic, pornographic or Satanist groups. It therefore represents an attack on the religious and ethical values of Egypt, the Jama’a al-Islamiya statement claimed.

Jama’a al-Islamiya described the amendment to Article Three as “catastrophic.”

Bangladesh Accuses Country’s Only Nobel Prize Winner Of Being “Un-Islamic,” Spreading Homosexuality, An “Accomplice of Jews And Christians”…



After being accused of “sucking blood” from the poor, Bangladesh’s only Nobel prize winner Muhammad Yunus faces a new state-backed hate campaign seeking to paint him as un-Islamic and a spreader of homosexuality.

Following years of attempts to discredit his legacy as a pioneer of micro-finance – since copied the world over as a development tool – the hounding has turned more personal and dangerous.

The perceived crime of the 73-year-old was to sign a joint statement along with three other Nobel laureates in April 2012 criticising the prosecution of gay people in Uganda.

Little remarked at the time, it has since been seized on by the Islamic Foundation, a government religious body, and amplified through tens of thousands of imams on its payrolls.

Protests have been held, leaflets calling him “an accomplice of Jews and Christians” have been distributed, and a “grand rally” has been called for October 31 in the capital Dhaka to denounce him.

“How can a state-run organisation run a campaign of criminal intimidation? It’ll instigate violence against professor Yunus,” Sara Hossain, a top lawyer and rights activist, warned in an interview with AFP.

Kyrgyzstan’s Grand Mufti Issues Fatwa Declaring Homosexuality Un-Islamic…


BISHKEK — Kyrgyzstan’s acting grand mufti, Maksat Hajji Toktomushev, has issued a fatwa against same-sex relations and challenged the findings of a new report by Human Rights Watch (HRW).

In a statement placed on the Kyrgyz Muslims’ Spiritual Directorate website on January 30, Toktomushev said Islam absolutely forbids same-sex relations.

Homosexuality was decriminalized in Kyrgyzstan in 1998.

Responding to a January 29 HRW report on the treatment of homosexuals by Kyrgyz police, Toktomushev called on Kyrgyz authorities and the parliament “to pay special attention to the activities of some public organizations that disseminate social discord while using humanistic ideas.”

In its report, HRW found that police in Kyrgyzstan have extorted, threatened, arbitrarily detained, beaten, and sexually abused gay and bisexual men.

The report called on Kyrgyzstan to protect its gay citizens.
