Repenting from homosexuality

· 27 Safar 1439 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

My best friend commited a major sin, he committed homosexuality. I told him that it’s a very big sin and Allah punished the people of Lut (alaihis salaam) for this sin. I told him that he needs to repent and turn back to Allah. My question is, does Allah forgive homosexuality?

Answer

If he is really sincere and he leaves out everything that is associated to this heinous filthy culture then Allah Ta`ala will forgive him.

We are not aware of this.

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