Homosexuality in Islam: Islamic Reflection on Gay, Lesbian, and Transgender Muslims

Posted on June 7, 2010

Product Description
Many Islamic authorities claim that homosexuality is categorically forbidden, but the reality is much less clear-cut. There are no verses in the Qur’an that unambiguously condemn homosexuals, and there are some that suggest they can be tolerated in Muslim communities. In addition, reports from Hadith that condemn homosexual and transgender persons are of dubious authenticity.

This pioneering work is the first to tackle this complex and controversial issue from a religious perspective. Scott Kugle critically engages with scripture, law, and tradition to examine the foundations for prevailing attitudes towards homosexuality in Islam. Arguing that Muslims can reconcile themselves with the inevitable diversity in society without compromising their principles, Kugle makes a forceful case for a renewed Islam that accepts all followers, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.

    I am very proud and extremely happy to finally see this book online. After reading a number of excerpts from this book, as a gay Muslim, Siraj provides the GLT Muslim community thoroughly researched theological points of view, providing a diversity of understandings grounded in Quran, ahadeeth, fiqh, shari’ah and cultural traditions starting in antiquity to the present. I can’t wait until I receive my copy of Siraj’s book so I can read it cover to cover. This will be one that I keep in my library for life. Thanks, Siraj and looking forward to your next book.
