      Salam

      I'm originally rooted from Yemen, Hadhramaut and Palestine, which my great great grandfather make a hijrah to Indonesia for Da'wah, maybe before Islam came to Indonesia.

      Okay we stop here, and you can continue by answering the following issue

      Whether the verse in (7029-31) is referring to "marriages according to the Qur'an"

      and you might also explain why you are saying the context of (235-6) is related to zina prevention.

      Certainly will the believers have succeeded
      They who are during their prayer
      humbly submissive
      And they who turn away
      from ill speech
      And they who are observant
      of zakah
      And they who guard
      their private parts
      Except from their wives
      or those their right hands possess
      for indeed, they will not be blamed
      But whoever seeks beyond that
      then those are the transgressors
      And they who are to their trusts
      and their promises attentive
      And they who carefully maintain
      their prayers
      Those are the inheritors
      Who will inherit al-Firdaus
      They will abide therein eternally
      (231-11)

      Peace

        As you see, the verses in the Quran didn't follow the index by orders.I mean a verse in a surat, may have a continuations in another surat.

        "Zena prevention" is my own term and yu may have your own
        According to me, most of Quranic verses not talking about fiqh-fatwa but how to became a proper being.

        Ok "zina prevention" term is almost leave the topic.So what we must discuss is homosexual is legal or not according to Quran.

          Okay, then we leave out other issue and focus on this question.

          Okay we stop here, and you can continue by answering the following issue

          Whether the verse in (7029-31) is referring to "marriages according to the Qur'an"

          It doesn't matter if it refers to same gender marriage or etc.

          It is irrelevant at this point of time.

          Peace.

                Yes, so what is your question, brother??

                Salam

                Let us review our discussion.
                (main issue)

                This is your conclusion.

                This is what you have agreed (see reference).

                The word "mates" is referring to "spouses" and "marriage according to the Qur'an". Nonetheless, homosexual can also use their private parts to anyone whether or not there is marriage.

                No. 1. YES, you agree homosexuals "can use" their private parts to "anyone"; marriages and unions which are not marriages according to the Qur'an.

                No. 2. YES, you agree the word "mates" mean "spouses"

                No. 3. YES, you agree the word "spouses" means "husband and wife" and "marriages".

                No. 4. YES, you agree the word marriages" means "marriages according to the Qur'an", except in (235-6), ie. zina prevention.

                No. 5. YES, you agree that the issue of zina prevention in (235-6) is your own personal terms and does not relate to the Qur'an. It should not be discussed.

                No. 6. Therefore and from point No. 5, (235-6) should be the same as (7019-35), ie. context relating to transgressions;

                Is this correct?


                REFERENCE

                Firstly,

                On the issue whether homosexual can use their private parts to anyone.

                YES, you agree homosexuals "can use" their private parts to "anyone"; marriages and unions which are not marriages according to the Qur'an.

                Reference

                Therefore your answer is B; ie. "Homosexuals "can use" their private parts to "anyone" (ie. same-sex marriage, etc.)"

                Secondly,

                On the issue of whether "mates" is referring to "spouses"?

                YES, you agree the word "mates" mean "spouses"

                Reference

                Please use common sense, what I mean mate is spouse of course

                If we look by the conteks of the verses, mates (zawaj) is spouse.

                Thirdly,

                On the issue whether the word "spouses" is referring to "husband and wife" and "marriages".

                YES, you agree the word "spouses" means "husband and wife" and "marriages".

                Reference

                So does it referring to "husband and wife" and "marriages"?

                Yes it does.

                Fourthly,

                On the issue whether the word "spouses" is referring to "marriages according to the Qur'an"

                YES, you agree the word marriages" means "marriages according to the Qur'an", except in (235-6), ie. zina prevention.

                Reference

                What I wish to find out now is it referring to "marriages" according to the Qur'an.

                If it is, can you agree that the verse is referring to "marriages" according to the Qur'an?

                If 235-6, it's not. This verse more talk about zina prevention or ethics of do sexual intercouse.

                As you can see from the above, you are only denying on (235-6), and on the issue of zina prevention. You have no objection relating to (7019-35) as referring to "marriages according to the Qur'an".

                Fifthly,

                On the issue whether the word "spouses" in (235-6) is not related to zina prevention.

                YES, you agree that the issue of zina prevention in (235-6) is your own personal terms and not related to the Qur'an. It should not be discussed; ie. context relating to transgression.

                Reference

                "Zena prevention" is my own term

                Sixthly,

                Comparison

                and promises attentive
                And those who are in their testimonies upright
                And those who maintain their prayer

                    I couldn't agree more. It's turning into an earthdom vs muslims thread jedi. I'm not even getting what the argument is about....

                    I have a suggestion for brothers earthdom and muslims please take your discussion off this thread...debate it among yourselves.....and then you can come back and tell us how the debate concluded.

                    We are certainly interested in knowing how the debate concluded....but not in the name-calling that you both are getting into...

                      Salam

                      Sorry.. but this is the issue

                      Rules relating to "private parts" in the Qur'an (main issue) ...

                      ISSUE

                      Whether...

                      Allah has permitted "marriage" and has forbidden everything else.

                      if yes, then...

                      Therefore, "same-sex-marriage" is prohibited since marriage is between man/woman
                      and there is no such things as using "private parts" to anyone other than
                      "wives" or "spouses".

                      and whereas...

                      EARTHDOM'S ARGUMENTS

                      Earthdom's argument is..

                      "Homosexuals "can use" their private parts to "anyone" (ie. same-sex marriage, etc.)"

                      Reason Homosexuality is not specifically forbidden in the Qur'an

                      What God blame for transgression??

                      I already told you, even @Abdul-Hadi also said to u.What God condemns in 780 is faahisyah not homosexual.

                      Is homosexual the faahisyah in that verse??No absolutely not

                      -First ayat 1660 (old lady also been punished for faahisyah)
                      -Second homosexual already happens before Luth era.If homosexual is faahishah then Luth and God Himself contradict the fact.

                      My counterarguments against Earthdom (refer here)

                      How about sexual intercourse with animals?

                      Can human beings make sexual intercourse with chickens? birds? goats? cows? cats?
                      (Warning!! please buy health insurance to cover costs of surgery before involving with any of these animals, especially cats! I disclaim any responsibility for any wrongful or ridiculous advice from any members in this forum! ;D )

                      Is it faahisyah?

                      Allah did not mention it in the Qur'an, and people can declare it as their "mates" to escape any prohibitions, or even human laws (defence of lawful religious practices etc.).

                      Now, do you realize your conclusion that "mates" can be of the same sex (or different sex) means all the rules in "the Qur'an is now self-contradicting"?

                      All the rules relating to sexual prohibitions in the Qur'an is meaningless?

                      These rules? (refer here)

                      Including the rules that say homosexual is a transgression? (ie. the Qur'an is now self contradicting)

                      In fact, we don't need rules relating to marriages.

                      Is this your logic?

                      A self-contradicting Qur'an?

                      This is what Earthdom have agreed so far.

                      This is your conclusion.

                      This is what you have agreed (see reference).

                      The word "mates" is referring to "spouses" and "marriage according to the Qur'an". Nonetheless, homosexual can also use their private parts to anyone whether or not there is marriage.

                      No. 1. YES, you agree homosexuals "can use" their private parts to "anyone"; marriages and unions which are not marriages according to the Qur'an.

                      No. 2. YES, you agree the word "mates" mean "spouses"

                      No. 3. YES, you agree the word "spouses" means "husband and wife" and "marriages".

                      No. 4. YES, you agree the word marriages" means "marriages according to the Qur'an", except in (235-6), ie. zina prevention.

                      No. 5. YES, you agree that the issue of zina prevention in (235-6) is your own personal terms and does not relate to the Qur'an. It should not be discussed.

                      No. 6. Therefore and from point No. 5, (235-6) should be the same as (7019-35), ie. context relating to transgressions;

                      MY ARGUMENTS

                      My argument is...

                      Homosexuals "must guard" their private parts except to "wives" (ie. marriage)

                      Reason The Qur'an is not an Encyclopedia and does not need to mention all sexual offences. Allah only mention rules relating "private parts" and ALL HUMAN BEINGS have private parts. Accordingly, this rule applies to all, straight or homosexual. They must use their "private parts" only to their wives/spouses, ie. marriages according to the Qur'an.

                      (from here)

                      Therefore, the Qur'an does not need to mention the prohibition of sexual intercourse with animals or all other sexual offences, and at the same time, being fully detailed. That is how verses in the Qur'an is plain, perfect and fully detailed; ie. the "exclusionary principle".

                      INTRO METHODOLOGY

                      Alif Lam Ra (This is) a Book
                      whose verses are made DECISIVE <- eg. La ilaha illa Allah
                      then are they made PLAIN <- explanation, refer here and (2.67-71)
                      from the Wise, All-aware
                      (111)

                      Earthdom's Counterarguments The word in the verse is "mates".

                      This counterargument is now not valid since Earthdom agree that the actual word is "spouses"

                      Please use common sense, what I mean mate is spouse of course

                      If we look by the conteks of the verses, mates (zawaj) is spouse.Spouses is neutral in gender, it can be male or female.

                      Of course spouse is neutral. Spouse is not a gender. It represents both husband and wife and no gender! Can we say "husband spouse" or "wife spouse"? Is marriage a gender? Male or female, boy or girl, man or woman is gender. Therefore, the word spouse is neutral and must be defined according context of the verses, ie. referring to wives.

                      refer here, and different translations

                        We are certainly interested in knowing how the debate concluded....but not in the name-calling that you both are getting into...

                        We may play name-calling, but it's litte.Human's patience have some limitation.
                        But name-calling is not the purpose for our discussion.

                        Therefore, "same-sex-marriage" is prohibited since marriage is between man/womanand there is no such things as using "private parts" to anyone other than
                        "wives" or "spouses".

                        RED-BLUE Has no correlation.
                        The example is Beauty salon mostly have female consuments.Is this means male cannot be a consument??

                        You used human-made definitions for what is marriage-spouses.

                          Please explain further, I don't understand your point or what you are trying to object.

                          By the way.. do you agree with this ayat?

                          Then do they not reflect upon the Qur'an?
                          If it had been from other than Allah
                          they would have found within it much contradiction
                          (482)

                          Do you agree the rules in the Qur'an does not have a contradiction?

                          Peace.

                            I see the homosexual is not forbidden but "against the standart".

                            5345 And He is the One who has created the pair, the male and the female.

                            By saying this, Is God forbids homosexual.As long as no prohibition, it's okay.

                            The example is, like I said before

                            -The standart The consuments of beauty salon is female.
                            Is this means, a male consuments cannot go to beauty salon??

                            As long as no prohibition, we okay to go there.

                              Don't repeat what we have already discussed.

                              We are discussing here because I'm showing you the rule relating to "private parts".

                              Do you agree homosexual have "private parts"?

                              If they have "private parts", why should they be exempted from this rule?

                              Do you have an ayat to prove that they are exempted from this rule?

                              Which ayat? show me...

                              Please also answer the above question.

                              Peace

                                  Why are you replying like you don't know which verse we are discussing all this while?

                                  I have already given you an ayat relating to "private parts".

                                  and.. you agree homosexual have "private parts".

                                  Therefore, they are equally obliged to comply with this rule.

                                  UNLESS, you can show me an ayat that they are exempted from this rule.

                                  Why are you playing dumb and like you don't understand what we have been discussing all this while?

                                  Do you desperately need to distort Allah's words for your reputation or ego?

                                  If not.. then give me an ayat to show that homosexual are exempted from the rule relating to "private parts".

                                  Do you have an ayat to prove that they are exempted from this rule?

                                  Peace

                                    Why are you playing dumb and like you don't understand what we have been discussing all this while?

                                    If not.. then give me an ayat to show that homosexual are exempted from the rule relating to "private parts".

                                    Both of us play dumb.If we create an arguments, we must anticipate first for is the interlocutars understand what I said

                                    Verse about private part ( I also already explained multiples time)

                                    Verses about "guard private part" is 235-6

                                    23.5 And who () keep covered their private parts.
                                    23.6 Except around their mates (), or those who are maintained by their oaths, they are free from blame.

                                    The blue word is allazi mean which, who, whom, whose and this is masculine.
                                    The red word is azwaj or zawaj, means mate (mate can be husband or wife) and interestingly the red word is also masculine!!

                                    This means this verse is neutral in gender and translation.
                                    And verse 7029-31 is a repetation of 235-6.

                                    If you don't understand what I mean, which part?
                                    Indeed mate (zaawaja) is neutral in contexs of the ayats.

                                    So how this relate to homosexs case??

                                      Is this your ayat to show that homosexual is exempted from the rule relating to private parts? confused

                                      By the way... when did "spouses" become a gender?

                                      When did "mates" become a gender?

                                      Where did you learn "spouses" is a gender?

                                      Which school?

                                      Is "marriage" a gender?

                                      Is "perkahwinan" a gender? Is a "man"?, Is a "woman"?, "lelaki"? "wanita"? laugh

                                      Of course spouse is neutral. Spouse is not a gender. It represents both husband and wife and no gender! Can we say "husband spouse" or "wife spouse"? Is marriage a gender? Male or female, boy or girl, man or woman is gender. Therefore, the word spouse is neutral and must be defined according context of the verses, ie. referring to wives.

                                      So.. where is the ayat to show that homosexual is exempted from the rules relating to "private parts"?

                                      Peace

                                        Yes

                                        Where did you learn "spouses" is a gender?

                                        Is marriage a gender?

                                        Is "perkahwinan" a gender? "man", "woman", lelaki? wanita?

                                        Indeed you always use non-Quranic definition for this terms.You mostly use english definition.So I confused

                                        I never said spouses is gender.

                                        If we intepretate verse 235-6 in our language

                                        "Dan para pria yang menjaga kemaluannya, kecuali terhadap pasangan (pria) mereka atau tangan kanan (ma malakat aymanukum), maka sesungguhnya dalam hali ini dia tiada tercela"

                                        The word "pasangan" in Arabic is azwaj or zawjah,and this word is male in gender/masculine.
                                        Quran indeed show some neutrality in gender

                                          I never said spouses is gender.The word zawjah is can be male or female.

                                          Salam

                                          Do you capable of understanding what I'm saying to you?

                                          You just repeat what I've replied, and raising the same issue, over and over again.

                                          What have I said?

                                          Therefore, the word spouse is neutral and must be defined according context of the verses, ie. referring to wives.

                                          Now.. what is the context?

                                          The blue word is allazi mean which, who, whom, whose and this is masculine.

                                          See? you say it masculine... ie. it is referring to men...

                                          and the word "mates" or "spouses" is neutral.. it is not a gender.

                                          Therefore, the word "mates" or "spouses" must follow or be defined according to the context of "masculinity"

                                          Therefore, the word spouse is neutral and must be defined according context of the verses, ie. referring to wives.

                                          ie.... referring to "wives" or "spouses"

                                          Can you understand this?

                                          Now.. where is the ayat to show that homosexuals are exempted from the rule relating to "private parts"?

                                          Peace

                                          I never said spouses is gender.

                                          read again... and see how you contradict your own statements!

                                          The red word is azwaj or zawaj, means mate (mate can be husband or wife) and interestingly the red word is also masculine!!

                                          By the way... when did "spouses" become a gender?

                                          When did "mates" become a gender?

                                          Where did you learn "spouses" is a gender?
