Thanks. That’s what I wanted to say. It’s scary how people say anything about prophets and queens without proper research or direct quite from Quran/Hadith/sunnah. @Blessed 2006 please just don’t read anything and believe it do your own research.
We are at least 5 decades behind the West when it comes to our level of development, enlightenment, sensitivity to issues of race, class, gender and acceptance of issues like homosexuality and in some respects even behind that. And five decades ago homosexuality was a big taboo when gay stars like Rock Hudson had to contract arranged marriages in order to keep up their heart throb images in front of the public. let us not blindly copy the West in making inroads into a territory for which we are socially, historically and psychologically just not ready. Let us focus on the real areas that need our attentionl.
oh my bad i didnot read the qoum bit (i know about his qoum)…so i googled up and found few answers (what i have written). but all in all it is my fault this is regarding quran and a prohet so when i wasnot sure about him i shouldnot have said it. i will read quran for this matter to find out what it says or will consult someone.
Prophet Lut was innocent. He was prophet, only his Qoum was gay and Allah send Lut to this Qoum to tell them to marry with girls and not involve in homosex.
People, according to Quran the Arabs are a really terrible race too (read 9:97 and 9:101)…I just can’t see why religion is used to target anything that doesn’t fit the macho-male stereotype? Leave gay people alone (and women too, for that matter)…
It’s important to be tolerant and let people be themselves. That’s the only way to put an end to this culture of hypocrisy and double standard where we force people to lie and create an atmosphere of suspicion all around. If there’s a market for gay-themed stuff on Pak TV, might as well tap into that.
HUM’s show Ghirein Kitni Baki Hain did do one episode on sexual abuse and homosexuality. Shamoon Abassi plays a man who sexually abused a young guy he hired who later on is married off from pressure from his family. Aisha Omar plays his wife and overhears the convo between her husband and Shamoon Abassi on her suhag raat and understands what happens.
It was a very complex story and should def. be watched if you can on Youtube.
