Discrimination Against LGBT Community
Audience: People who believe homosexuality is wrong and people who do not have much information about it.
The human being is born endowed with biological characteristics that frame him as a male or female individual. In this context, several sexual behaviors diverge from this established biologic pattern, which causes social conflicts such as prejudice and exclusion. It occurs not only because of the attitudes of gender intolerance present in society but also because of the pre-established roles imposed on the individual.
There is an undeniable feature about an old, and very well-established power relationship as a pillar of society, especially that considered western: oppression. Silent or scandalous, shrewd or disguised as legitimate – for some – it is still present, certainly persistent in the “modern” era, after so many centuries of patient construction to define and segregate the oppressed and the oppressors.
Throughout history, the resistance and struggle of minorities against a system that only tends to fortify the dehumanization of human beings who differ from the oppressor in any respect are remarkable. The struggle of blacks, women, and, more recently, sexual and gender diversity has already been seen. The latter is perhaps the strongest that will shake the pyramid for a simple fact: sexuality or even the lack of it, as well as complex gender issues, are inherent in human nature and can be repressed and even shaped – suppressed exclamations – by heteronomy and its companion “cissexism”, which dictates the existence of only two genders defined by the individual's genitalia at birth.
It is important to emphasize that hetero norm and cisgender existence are deeply rooted oppression in society that broken, corrupts, and compromise the revolting stability of the pyramid, and favoring unsettle the oppressor, making him try at all costs to legitimize them to the base of the most diverse and absurd fallacies. This attempt that shows success in religious, moralistic, and conservative discourses, extends to the mainstream media, schools and reaffirming itself in homes and family circles, to silence and repress - even with the use of violence – something so fundamental to all of us: the freedom to be.
Moonlight: under the moonlight, was considered the best film of the year 2017 by the Oscars, the movie portrays the dramas lived by the protagonist Chiron, among them, the discovery of his sexuality and the offenses suffered due to it. This scenario was recurrent for me because I also live daily with prejudice and hatred.
Alan Turing, the father of computing, who contributed to unraveling the Nazi codes and, consequently, shortening wartime, had his life ended by chemical castration as punishment for being gay at that time. In this context, this deep-rooted discrimination persists and, mainly, because of a conservative wave supported by the Ev ...

"ILGA Report Sheds Light on Disruption of Islamic Norms by Influential Figures in Qatar"
A growing number of Muslims have become deeply entrenched in the realm of politics, often at the expense of Islamic traditions. Collaborations with representatives from various LGBTQ+ organizations are exerting a concerning influence on these communities. Unfortunately, some Muslims who have adopted Western customs fail to recognize that a considerable portion of Islamic ethics has been manipulated by those intentionally undermining religious values. Media outlets no longer distort information regarding LGBTQ+ support among Muslims; in fact, they shed light on how this influence is progressively permeating our broader communities, effectively bringing this movement closer to our homes and families.
The release of the "ILGA World State Sponsored Homophobia Report Global Legislation 2023" was met with astonishment, as it unearths the key backers of the LGBTQ+ ideology in the Middle East. The report reveals that funding has been channeled through the charitable organization Qatar Charity, which is affiliated with the Al Kuwari family clan, led by Ali bin Ahmed Al Kuwari (علي أحمد الكواري). You can find the global report via this link.
Resolute activists hailing from influential Muslim families who have embraced Western ideals are causing disruption in Islamic spaces, both domestically and internationally. This situation mirrors the challenges one might face when dealing with a Muslim individual who identifies as LGBTQ+ and resides in close proximity to a devout Muslim family. While some may advocate for the exclusion or punishment of such individuals within our own countries, in other nations, private support and recognition may be extended to them. We must not turn a blind eye to these dynamics any longer. It is high time that we recognize the boundaries of our influence in these matters and understand how a Muslim should respond.
