Answer:
Why is Anal sex, homosexuality & blow job not
allowed?
In the name of Allah, We praise
Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none
can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright.
We bear witness that there is no one (no idol,
no person, no grave, no
prophet, no imam, no dai, nobody!) worthy of worship but Allah Alone,
and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of
His Messengers.
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 222:They ask you
about the (women’s) monthly courses.
Say, “It is a state of impurity; so keep apart from the women during
their monthly courses and do not approach them until they are clean. When they have cleansed themselves, then
you may go to them in the manner ordained for you by Allah. Most surely Allah loves those people who
refrain from evil and keep themselves pure and clean.
Allah, who created us, the heavens, the earth,
and everything in between, in His
Divine and Perfect Wisdom and Knowledge created and ordained the laws for everything. He created and ordained the sun to a law.. its distance, its heat,
its movement, etc. He created and
ordained the earth, mountains, clouds, rains, vegetation, animals, humans, etc.
also to a perfect law. He Who created us, Knows what is best for us. Likewise, for our carnal functions and
pleasures, He ordained a law and a legal means for us. In the above aayah
of Surah Baqarah, there are
three basic commandments:
The women’s monthly courses are
an impurity, therefore men must not approach their
wives for sexual intercourse.
When they are cleansed, men may
approach them for sexual intercourse, in the manner ordained by Allah (the
natural way).
Allah loves those people who
refrain from evil, and are pure and clean.
But if one, in deviation from
the natural way ordained by Allah, devices his own way in any of Allah’s
commands: he will not only be liable to
Allah’s punishment for disobedience, but
will also have consequences of his deeds in this world.
Your comment: Why is anal sex not allowed.
By anal sex, we assume you mean between a man and a woman. The Messenger of Allah (saws) termed anal sex a grave sin absolutely forbidden in Islam. And even in todays world, the science of medicine agrees that this act is unclean, unhealthy, and is one of the causes of the incurable disease, Aids, whether it be between man and woman, or man and man.
Your comment: Why is homosexuality not allowed.
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 7 Surah Aaraf verses 80-82:And We sent
Allah says in the Holy
Quran Chapter 11 Surah Hud verses 82-83:Accordingly, when the time of the
execution of Our Judgement came (for the people of
Lot), We turned the habitation upside
down and rained on it stones of baked clay,
each of which had been specifically marked by your Lord. And such a scourge is not far from the
tyrannous people!
Homosexuality is absolutely
forbidden in Islam. It is an abomination
and a grave sin in the eyes of Allah, and in Islam the doers of this sin are
punishable by death!
This deed is deemed un-natural
and against humanity and society in Islam. This deed is an evil and immoral
deviation of man, and is not found even in the lower forms of animate
life! Allah destroyed the whole
habitation of Prophet Lot, and turned the whole city upside-down, and rained on
them a rain of brim-stones for their sin of homosexuality. It was not that every individual in Sodom
and Gomorrah who were destroyed committed sodomy; but even those who accepted
it, propagated it, looked upto it as a norm and
fashion, and allowed it without raising a voice against this abomination, were
all destroyed by Allah Subhanah.
And Allah warns in the Holy Quran: ‘And such a scourge is not
far from the tyrannous people!’
Thus if in the world today, this act of sodomy is propagated and
accepted as normal and as fashionable, and society as a whole does not take
steps to abolish this abomination, the scourge that came upon the people of
Sodom and Gomorrah is not far!
We seek refuge in Allah from His
Wrath and His Anger and His Punishment!
Your comment: Is a blow job for both sexes
allowed or that too is prohibited.
The Quran
and Sunnah are silent on this issue, and no one asked
the Prophet (saws) about this issue, nor did he ever mention anything about
it. Thus one cannot say it is ‘haraam’. And
because this act is a later development and deviation of man, we have to rely
on the jurists amongst the scholars for an opinion.
The scholars are almost
unanimous in their opinion, that this act of ‘blow-job’ is un-natural, unclean
and impure, and thus closer to the forbidden in Islam. Some scholars have also
termed it absolutely forbidden.
And the Messenger
of Allah (saws) said in one famous narration that in Islam, “The ‘halaal’ is evident, and the ‘haraam’
is also evident. Between the ‘halaal’ and the ‘haraam’ there
are some gray matters, and anyone who also stays away of these gray matters,
has indeed purified his soul.”
And Allah Alone Knows Best and
He is the Only Source of Strength.
Whatever written of
Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever
of error is of me. Allah Alone Knows Best
and He is the Only Source of Strength.
Your Brother in Islam,
