well story of every muslim’s life isn’t it? We all have our temptations, they vary for everyone but at the end it’s all about fighting against them, and if you sin in the process you just pick yourself up and try again. That is what being a muslim is all about IMO.

i couldn’t agree more. everyone tries to do their best according to their own more or less knowledge. and everyone sins. so why pinpoint these folks especially. they love God as much anyone else. but we are so adamant on throwing a good number of people in a loveless life … fine. but correct me if i’m wrong … chaste women for chaste men. isn’t this also in the Quran? then how dare the unchaste men bind their union in front of God with a chaste woman … something that is becoming more and more common! (and vice versa)

and @Naabigh … yes God is a lot more than just being merciful … but why are you rejecting that humans are still humans … and all they can do is try … and failure along the way is possible … and then try again.

@Nisha25

you are avoiding the question by saying that it is unlikely but if lesbians/gays were executed under sharia law in Iran in the past then obviously there were 4 witnesses and that is what the case was in one situation they were found at a party expressing themselves as gays. and if homosexual muslims did go through with the religious ceremony with 100s of witnesses,family and friends, gotten God’s blessings for marrying their Significant Other, would you then participate in their sharia ordered punishment of stoning to death, burning alive, whipping, or beheading.

looking at the law with one eye. if people are so persistent upon shunning homosexuality, then they should be strong enough to follow the “sazaa” part of the law as well. but baat itni si hai … jub khudd per ati hai, ya apnay kisi aziz per ati hai … to log forun badal jatay hain … talking about a third, fourth, fifth person with a book open is very easy.

it is really a difficult situation to be in … i shudder at the mere thought of being in it. people saying “oh i’ll find a more rewarding activity” … very easily said. i dont approve of the act of homosexuality either. but i CANNOT not have a heart enough towards the situation and give these people the benefit of the doubt that they are trying and fighting against themselves … and ultimately let God decide .. and not me. and those expecting a miracle of a real homo going straight after praying five times a day …
