Kill the Gay in Bible vs. Quran

In the Bible, the LORD God commands to kill the gay!

In the Quran, In the Quran, Allah does not command to kill the gay!

—————————————

The Gay in the Bible: Do not be a Gay, the LORD Commands: In Leviticus 18:22, the LORD commands not to be a gay. New International Version “‘Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable. New American Standard Bible You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female; it is an abomination King James Version

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. The Message “Don’t have sex with a man as one does with a woman. That is abhorrent. According to these four different versions of the Bible, to be a gay is detestable, abomination and abhorrent. However, the sin of the gay is greater than abomination that is why: In Leviticus 20:13, the LORD commands to kill the gay! Look at these four different versions of the Bible: New International Version If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads. New American Standard Bible If there is a man who lies with a male as those who lie with a woman, both of them have committed a detestable act; they shall surely be put to death. Their blood guiltiness is upon them. King James Version If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. The Message “If a man has sex with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is abhorrent. They must be put to death; they are responsible for their own deaths. —————————————

The Gay in the Quran: The Noble Quran considers the gay act as a big sin that deserves punishment in the afterlife. Nevertheless, the Quran does not command to kill the Gay! What if the Quran was the Book, which commands to kill the Gay? What the western media would have said?

What names they have given the Quran in such case? —————————————

Homosexuality from sodomy to the 21 century

Homosexuality can refer to sexual behavior between organisms of the same sex. The word homosexual is a Greek and Latin hybrid from of the Greek prefix homo- (“same”), and the Latin root sex, thus connoting sexual acts and affections between members of the same sex, including lesbianism.

Gay refers to male homosexuality and Lesbian denotes female homosexuality. Gay and lesbian are the most common alternatives of homosexual. In religious cultures, the law established sodomy as a transgression against divine law, a “crime against nature” and subject to severe penalties, including capital punishment—often inflicted by means of fire to purify the unholy action. In the 1950s, at the height of the red scare in the United States, hundreds of federal and state employees were fired to death because of their homosexuality in the so-called lavender scare. Homosexual acts are punishable by death in some present-day countries including Iran, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sudan, Yemen etc. Reform Judaism, the largest branch of Judaism outside Israel has begun to facilitate religious weddings for gay adherents in their synagogues. Jewish Theological Seminary, considered to be the flagship institution of Conservative Judaism, decided in March 2007 to begin accepting gay and lesbian applicants, after scholars who guide the movement lifted the ban on gay ordination. In 2005, the United Church of Christ became the largest Christian denomination in the United States to formally endorse same-sex marriage. —————————————

Back to the main issue of my series of articles; this is my question to you smart readers: “Is the Quran quoted from the Bible?”

Professor Dr. Ibrahim Khalil wrote this article

Allah’s Messengers Brought the Ancient Disbelievers Clear Proofs, but they Would Not Believe

The Quran Describes the Outcome of the Breakers of Covenants Among the Ancient People

Allah Sent His Messengers with Clear Proofs, Commands, Prohibitions etc.

They were Indeed Wicked, that is why they Deserved Allah’s Destruction

The Historical Consequence for the Ancient Corrupters

——————————————

Many people do not know Allah. This series is an attempt to help them to know their Creator.

Verses 7:101-103 of the Noble Quran talk about:

1) Allah’s messengers brought the ancient disbelievers clear proofs, but they would not believe,

——————————————

In the previous articles of this series, the interested reader can find the details about the townships and the disbelievers dwelled therein which deserved Allah’s destruction because of their disobediences.

Such outcome is summarized in these five articles that talk about:

1.    Allah Sent Noah Unto His people

2.    Allah Sent to the Messenger Hood to the Ancient Aad

3.    Allah Sent the Prophet Salih to Thamood

4.    Allah Sent Lot to his People Saying: Stop homosexuality

5.    Allah Punished And Destroyed Those Who Denied Shuayb

——————————————

The meaning of verse 7:101

Those towns, which have been mentioned whose people Allah had destroyed,  Allah narrates, Allah sends you O Muhammad the Angel Gabriel with some of their tidings, with the story of their destruction. 

Verily their messengers brought them clear proofs, manifest miracles, but they would not believe, when these signs came to them, in what they had denied, disbelieved in, before, before these signs came to them; nay, they persisted in disbelief. Thus, Allah does seal up the hearts of the disbelievers.

In other words, Their messengers verily came unto them with clear proofs) with commands, prohibitions and signs, (but they could not believe) in the Scriptures or messengers (because they had before denied) i.e. on the Day of the Covenant; it is also said the last of nations did not believe in that which the first of nations disbelieved.

 

The meaning of verse 7:102

And We did not find in most of them, that is, people, any covenant, that is, any loyalty to a covenant from the day the pledge was made. Nay, Allah found that most of them, all of them, were indeed wicked, wrong-doers and breakers of covenants.

 

The meaning of verse 7:103

Then Allah sent, after them, after the messengers mentioned, Moses with nine signs to Pharaoh and his council and his chiefs, his folk, but they mistreated, they disbelieved in them; they repelled and denied Allah’ signs.

So behold what was the end of those who work corruption, by way of disbelief, when they were destroyed.

In other words, see the nature of the consequence for the corrupters; see how destruction was the end result of the idolaters!

——————————————

Verses 7:101-103 in different English translations of the meanings of Arabic Quran:

QARIB:

101) Those villages we narrate their news to you. their messengers came to them with clear proofs, yet they would not believe what they had belied before; as such Allah seals the hearts of the unbelievers.

102) We did not find the covenant upheld by the majority of them, but we found most of them evildoers.

103) After those we sent forth moses with our signs to pharaoh and his assembly, but with it they harmed. look at the end of the corrupters.

 

SHAKIR:

101) These towns– we relate to you some of their stories, and certainly their messengers came to them with clear arguments, but they would not believe in what they rejected at first; thus does Allah set a seal over the hearts of the unbelievers

102) And we did not find in most of them any (faithfulness to) covenant, and we found most of them to be certainly transgressors

103) Then we raised after them musa with our communications to firon and his chiefs, but they disbelieved in them; consider then what was the end of the mischief makers

 

PICKTHAL:

101) Such were the townships. we relate some tidings of them unto thee (Muhammad). their messengers verily came unto them with clear proofs (of Allah’s sovereignty), but they could not believe because they had before denied. thus doth Allah print upon the hearts of disbelievers (that they hear not).

102) We found no (loyalty to any) covenant in most of them. nay, most of them we found wrong-doers.

103) Then, after them, we sent moses with our tokens unto pharaoh and his chiefs, but they repelled them. now, see the nature of the consequence for the corrupters!

 

YUSUFALI:

101) Such were the towns whose story we (thus) relate unto thee: there came indeed to them their messengers with clear (signs): but they would not believe what they had rejected before. thus doth Allah seal up the hearts of those who reject faith.

102) Most of them we found not men (true) to their covenant: but most of them we found rebellious and disobedient.

103) Then after them we sent Moses with our signs to pharaoh and his chiefs, but they wrongfully rejected them: so see what was the end of those who made mischief.

This is Allah (44) Allah Sent Lot to his People Saying: Stop homosexuality

Allah’s Law: the Behinds of Both Men and Women is Prohibited

Have you ever Known or Seen a Homosexual Dog, Cat, Donkey etc?

Are there Other Creatures in Other Planets that Have Sexual Activity Like Man?

Historically, Lot’s Folk was the First Among all of the Creatures Committing Homosexuality

Lot Said: Stop Homosexuality and they Said: Expel this Pure Man from Our City

——————————————-

Many people do not know Allah.

This series is an attempt to help them in order to know and acknowledge their Creator.

Verses 7:80-84 of the Noble Quran talk about:

1) Allah sent Lot to his people saying: stop homosexuality,

2) Allah’s Law: the behinds of both men and women is prohibited,

3) historically, Lot’s folk was the first among all of the creatures committing homosexuality and

4) Are there other creatures in other planets that have sexual activity like man?

——————————————-

The meaning of verse 7:80

The verse mentions Lot and says: Allah sent Lot to his people; and He said to them people, Do you commit abomination, that is penetrating the rears of men, i.e. the homosexuality, such as no creature ever did this act before you?  In other words, such as no one in all the worlds ever committed before you, humans or jinn or any other creature?

This verse indicates that there are other creatures in the worlds which have sexual activity like man. These might include Jinn and other creatures in other planets that we have no idea about them.  Nevertheless, historically, Lot’s folk was the first among all of those creatures committing homosexuality.

Also, as far as I know, there is no homosexuality among the animals like dogs, cats etc.  Have you ever known or seen a homosexual dog, cat etc?

Subsequently, what about the marvel man?

 

The meaning of verse 7:81

indeed you come lustfully to men’s behinds instead of women?

Nay, you are a wanton folk, transgressing the bounds, going from what is lawful to what is unlawful. In other words, you transgress from the lawful to that which is prohibited.

 

The meaning of verse 7:82

And the answer of his people was only that they said mockingly:

“Expel Lot and his followers, from our city, Turn them out

Surely Lot and his followers are folk who would be pure!’, They are folk, forsooth, who keep pure, who avoid the behinds of men and women.”

 

The meaning of verse 7:83

So Allah delivered, rescued, saved Lot and his family, except his wife: she was of those who stayed behind, who remained in the chastisement and was therefore destroyed.

 

The meaning of verse 7:84

And Allah rained a rain upon them. Allah sent down upon them, the homosexuals, stones from heaven and destroyed them.

Consider O Muhammad the nature of the consequence for evil-doers! the end result of the idolaters is destruction. So behold what was the end of the sinners!

——————————————-

Verses 7:80-84 in different English translations of the meanings of Arabic Quran:

QARIB:

80) And lot, who said to his nation: ‘do you commit such indecency (sodomy) in a way that no one has preceded you in the worlds?

81) You approach men lustfully instead of women. truly, you are a nation who exceed (in sin). ‘

83) We saved him and all his family, except his wife, who was made to remain,

84) And we rained down upon them a rain. so look how was the end of the evildoers.

 

SHAKIR:

80) And (we sent) lut when he said to his people: what! do you commit an indecency which any one in the world has not done before you?

81) Most surely you come to males in lust besides females; nay you are an extravagant people

82) And the answer of his people was no other than that they said: turn them out of your town, surely they are a people who seek to purify (themselves)

YUSUFALI:

80) We also (sent) lut: he said to his people: “do ye commit lewdness such as no people in creation (ever) committed before you?

81) “For ye practise your lusts on men in preference to women : ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.”

82) And his people gave no answer but this: they said, “drive them out of your city: these are indeed men who want to be clean and pure!”

83) But we saved him and his family, except his wife: she was of those who legged behind.

84) And we rained down on them a shower (of brimstone): then see what was the end of those who indulged in sin and crime!

Chapter 6 of the Quran (100) Satan’s Footsteps

Do not follow the footsteps of Satan of forbidding lawful things  Do not follow the footsteps of Satan of deeming unlawful things as lawful. Some people forbid eating sea foods although sea foods are lawful and some people eat pork meat although it is strictly forbidding.

——————————————-

Ayah 6:142 says:

It is Allah who creates the cattle for mankind to help us.

Some cattle are used for burden; Allah hes created them fit to bear loads such as the large mature camels; however, some cattle are not fit for load-bearing tasks such as young camels or sheep.

Some cattle are called “farsh” because they are like ‘bedding spread on the ground. Farsh, in Arabic means means something spread on the ground to sit or to lay down on it or ot means bedding on account of its physical closeness to the ground.

Some cattle are used for food like sheep or cows etc.

Eat of that which Allah has provided you of crops and cattle, and

Do not follow the footsteps of Satan

Do not follow the footsteps of Satan of forbidding lawful things

Do not follow the footsteps of Satan of deeming unlawful things as lawful.

It is well known that some people forbid eating sea foods although sea foods are lawful, on the other hand, some people eat pork meat although it is strictly forbidding.

Also, the pre-Islamic Arabs used to follow Satan’s footsteps by forbidding eating some crops and cattle.

Do not follow the footsteps of Satan

This is the most fruitful command for mankind.

It is a general command for anyone who seeks the Straight Path that eventually leads to the Eternal Paradasie in the afterlife.

Books could be written to explain this “few words’ command”

However, one can summarise this command in the following few decrees:

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to worship anything save Allah

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to commit murder

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to earn unlawful money

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to dishonor your parents

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to commit adultery

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to pledge homosexuality

O man, do not follow Satan’s Footsteps that cause you to lie and followfalsehood things, etc.

O man, always remember that Satan’s enmity is quite manifest and evident.

Surely Satan is a manifest foe to you.

The verse 6:142 in different translations

QARIB:

And of the cattle, some were for carrying burdens, and others for slaughter. eat of that which Allah has provided you with and do not follow in satan’s footsteps; he is your open enemy.

SHAKIR:

And of cattle (he created) beasts of burden and those which were fit for slaughter only; eat of what Allah has given you and do not follow the footsteps of the shaitan; surely he is your open enemy

PICKTHAL:

And of the cattle (he produceth) some for burdens, some for food. eat of that which Allah hath bestowed upon you, and follow not the footsteps of the devil, for lo! he is an open foe to you.

YUSUFALI:

Of the cattle were some for burden and some for meat: eat what Allah hath provided for you, and follow not the footsteps of satan: for he is to you and avowed enemy.

Chapter 50 of the Quran (5) Study of Man’s History Leads to Allah

Another Quran’s Law: Study of Man’s History Leads to Allah.

Comprehensive study of the History of mankind and what happened to the ancient people eventually leads to Allah.

 

The verse 50:12 says:

The people of the Prophet Noah denied their prophet Noah before your people, O Muhammad and so did the dwellers of al-Rass and Thamud

The dwellers of al-Rass are the people of the three Prophets who are mentioned in Chapter 36 of the Quran; they killed a man who believed in those prophets.

Al-Rass was the name of a well around which they dwelt together with their livestock.

The people of Thamud are the people of the Prophet Salih; they denied their prophet Salih

 

The verse 50:13 says:

The people of Aad are the people of the Prophet Hud; they denied their prophet Hud.

In addition, Pharaoh and his Egyptian folk denied the Prophet Moses

Also, the brethren of Lot are the people of the Prophet Lot; they denied their prophet Lot and kept practicing homosexuality.

 

And the dwellers in the wood that was a small forest are the people of the Prophet Shu’ayb; they denied their prophet Shu’ayb.

And the people of Tubba‘— are the people of a king who ruled in Yemen; he had submitted to Allah and had summoned his people to the same submission to Allah, but they denied him.

 

The verse 50:14 says:

Each, of those mentioned, denied their messengers and therefore Allah’s punishment and torment were enjoined upon them when they denied the messengers.

In other words, Allah’s threat became due; the sending down of chastisement on all of them became incumbent.

 

Each, of the above mentioned people, denied their prophets as your people O Muhammad have done, so do not be anguished by the people of Mecca who are disbelieving in you.
