Homosexuality and lesbianism

· 4 Safar 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I know some Muslim people, who used to be sinning very often, and they are gays (females included). But one asked me once if for Allah, she lets go of her love and desire for the girl she loves, because she is growing very strong desire for her. Can she pray that in the Akhirah Allah grant them each other?

Answer

They must make taubah immediately from this filth, and after they have given up sincerely and remain committed to their deen then insha-Allah in the aakhirat they will get all that they will desire for.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
