Comments on: Our message for you… http://gaymuslims.org/2007/05/01/our-message-for-you/ Principled, compassionate Islamic perspective Fri, 03 Feb 2012 06:47:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Saul http://gaymuslims.org/2007/05/01/our-message-for-you/#comment-15096 Sat, 21 Aug 2010 16:07:38 +0000 http://gaymuslims.wordpress.com/2007/05/01/our-message-for-you/#comment-15096 Asalamu Alaikum. Thank you very much for making this site.

Homoseual acts are highly illegal in almost all Islamic countries – rightly so. This site is helping to save brothers from getting involved in criminal acts, taking on a “gay” identity, catching diseases and being despised by their community and being punished if caught.

You keep an eye by monitoring the website, when we criticize others we go with what they did and said PUBLICLY, and this what you can do with our blog.

How do we get to keep an eye on the eye on gay muslims?

interesting – the whole play on the ‘gaze’.

So do tell me – how is it you see yourselves as upholders of religion?

I’m not criticising this scholar (Shaykh Munajjid), as he could be right. But I do know that quite often ijmaa’ (consensus) is cited where it does not in fact exist. We have posted examples of scholars who say that capital punishment is not the only existing opinion, e.g.:

الشيخ محمد صالح المنجد
الشذوذ الجنسي .الحكم والعلاج

وأتفق أصحاب رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم على قتله ، لم يختلف منهم فيه رجلان ، وإنما اختلفت أقوالهم في صفة قتله ، فظنَّ بعض الناس ذلك اختلافاً منهم في قتله ، فحكاها مسألة نزاع بين الصحابة ، وهي بينهم مسألة إجماع .

http://gaymuslims.org/2006/10/22/imam-backs-shariah-shock/
http://gaymuslims.org/2006/11/07/sins-crimes-and-punishments/
http://gaymuslims.org/2006/12/08/lock-imaan-and-islamophobia/

I’m quite certain you’re not a highly qualified Islamic jurist such that I should take your opinion about Islamic law as more authoritative than mine, let alone than those of the scholars I consult.

In the Koran we come to learn that the divine applied judged that acts of homosexuality are punishable by death. This is the moral level at which Islam operates.
