In the previous thread, a lot of people misquoted Islam and justified homosexuality. May Allah give them hidayah for manipulating Islam in their own context. This only strays people from the truth. Anyways, all the points will be clarified in this thread.
The Muslims should not doubt, even for an instant, that what Allah has prescribed is wise. He should know that there is great wisdom in what Allah has commanded and what
He has forbidden; it is the straight path and is the only way in which man can be safe and at peace, protecting his honour, his mind and his health, in accordance with the natural disposition (fitrah) with which Allaah has created man.Â

Islam and its rulings; they have denounced divorce and plural marriage and permitted alcohol. Those who look at the state of their societies will see the state of misery which those societies have reached.
When they rejected divorce, murder took its place. When they rejected plural marriage, men started to take mistresses instead. When they allowed alcohol, all kinds of shameful and immoral actions became widespread.
Quran says in the following verses:
A â Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):Â
âAnd (remember) Loot (Lot), when he said to his people: âDo you commit the worst sin such as none preceding you has committed in the âAalameen (mankind and jinn)?
A â Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):Â
âAnd (remember) Loot (Lot), when he said to his people: âDo you commit the worst sin such as none preceding you has committed in the âAalameen (mankind and jinn)?
Verily, you practise your lusts on men instead of women. Nay, but you are a people transgressing beyond bounds (by committing great sins)ââ
[al-Aâraaf 7:80-81]
[al-Aâraaf 7:80-81]
B â âVerily, We sent against them a violent storm of stones (which destroyed them all), except the family of Loot (Lot), them We saved in the last hour of the nightâ
[al-Qamar 54:34 â interpretation of the meaning]

[al-Aâraaf 7:80 â interpretation of the meaning]Â
And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
âAnd (remember) Loot (Lot), when he said to his people: âYou commit AlâFaahishah (sodomy the worst sin) which none has preceded you in (committing) it in the âAalameen (mankind and jinn)ââ
[al-âAnkaboot 29:28]
[al-âAnkaboot 29:28]
D â âAnd (remember) Loot (Lot), We gave him Hukm (right judgement of the affairs and Prophethood) and (religious) knowledge, and We saved him from the town (folk) who practised AlâKhabaaâith (evil, wicked and filthy deeds).
Verily, they were a people given to evil, and were Faasiqoon (rebellious, disobedient to Allaah)â
[al-Anbiyaâ 21:74 â interpretation of the meaning]
[al-Anbiyaâ 21:74 â interpretation of the meaning]
E â âAnd (remember) Loot (Lot)! When he said to his people, âDo you commit AlâFaahishah (evil, great sin, every kind of unlawful sexual intercourse, sodomy) while you see (one another doing evil without any screen)
Do you practise your lusts on men instead of women? Nay, but you are a people who behave senselessly.â
There was no other answer given by his people except that they said: âDrive out the family of Loot (Lot) from your city. Verily, these are men who want to be clean and pure!â
There was no other answer given by his people except that they said: âDrive out the family of Loot (Lot) from your city. Verily, these are men who want to be clean and pure!â
So We saved him and his family, except his wife. We destined her to be of those who remained behind.
And We rained down on them a rain (of stones). So evil was the rain of those who were warnedâ
[al-Naml 27:54-58 â interpretation of the meaning]

These verses refer to the punishment that befell the people of Loot. With regard to the rulings on them:Â
F â Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning]:Â
âAnd the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, hurt them both.
F â Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning]:Â
âAnd the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, hurt them both.
And if they repent (promise Allaah that they will never repeat, i.e. commit illegal sexual intercourse and other similar sins) and do righteous good deeds, leave them alone. Surely, Allaah is Ever All-Forgiving (and He is) Most Merciful
[al-Nisaâ 4:16]
[al-Nisaâ 4:16]
Ibn Katheer said:Â
âThe words of Allaah âAnd the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, hurt them bothâ mean, those who commit immoral actions, punish them both. Ibn âAbbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him), Saâeed ibn Jubayr and others said:
âThe words of Allaah âAnd the two persons (man and woman) among you who commit illegal sexual intercourse, hurt them bothâ mean, those who commit immoral actions, punish them both. Ibn âAbbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him), Saâeed ibn Jubayr and others said:
By condemning them, shaming them and hitting them with shoes. This was the ruling until Allaah abrogated it and replaced it with whipping and stoning. âIkrimah, âAta, al-Hasan and âAbd-Allaah ibn Katheer said: This was revealed concerning a man and woman who commit fornication.
Al-Saddi said, it was revealed concerning young people before they get married. Mujaahid said: it was revealed concerning two men if they admit it bluntly; a hint is not sufficient â as if he was referring to homosexuality. And Allaah knows best.â

The common rebuttal for âhomosexuality is haramâ is âonly if you engage in the sexual act, not just having the feelingsâ & even though this is correct, the context of such response is usually someone who vehemently supports the lgbt community and considers them an ally.
Pretty sure thereâs a popular story out there of a prophetâs wife being destroyed for supporting homosexuals and not condemning them. I wonder which story that is?
