Homosexuality
Question
Why do people fall in love with the same sex? Can you help someone who desires the same sex?
Answer
A person who is normal and sound in his mind is not inclined to these type of filthy and disgusting things. The abnormality is generally created through coming into contact with this type of literature, associating with these type of people or viewing these types of disgusting and filthy scenes. The Quraan has outlined the position of people who commit such major sins. Allah Ta'ala destroyed the entire nation of Hazrat Loot (Alaihis Salaam) due to them being involved in the sin of homosexuality.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
