Homosexuality in Islam
Scott Siraj Al-Haqq Kugle
Homosexuality is anathema to Islam – or so the majority of both
believers and non-believers suppose. Throughout the Muslim world, it is
met with hostility, where state punishments range from hefty fines to
the death penalty. Likewise, numerous scholars and commentators maintain
that the Qur’an and Hadith rule unambiguously against same-sex
relations.
This pioneering study argues that there is far more
nuance to the matter than most believe. In its narrative of Lot, the
Qur’an could be interpreted as condemning lust rather homosexuality.
While some Hadith are fiercely critical of homosexuality, some are far
more equivocal. This is the first book length treatment to offer a
detailed analysis of how Islamic scripture, jurisprudence, and Hadith,
can not only accommodate a sexually sensitive Islam, but actively
endorse it.
