New York Assembly passed a bill that would legalized same-sex marriage by a vote of 80-63. Though Assembly has passed before, this is the first time expectations are high that the Senate will pass it as well.
What is this development means for America as a whole? I can only give the scenario in one word – DISASTER!
In the Al Quran, the following verses are relevant here:
The people of Prophet Lut were transgressing beyond bounds. Their man having sex with man was the cause for their destruction in history. The Angels visited Prophet Lut to convey this message of destruction. Prophet Lut became sad.
When Our messengers came to Lut, he was grieved on their account and felt himself powerless (to protect) them. He said: "This is a distressful day." 11:77
As the people of Prophet Lut came to know of the new visitors, they pursued them amorously. In addition, to this Prophet Lut offered the transgressors his daughters as wives. Prophet Lut did not want his guests to put to shame by their abnormal behaviours.
And his people came rushing towards him, and they had been long in the habit of practising abominations. He said: "O my people! Here are my daughters: they are purer for you (if ye marry)! Now fear Allah, and cover me not with shame about my guests! Is there not among you a single right-minded man?" 11:78
The transgressors replied very calmly, of what they wanted.
They said: "Well dost thou know we have no need of thy daughters: indeed thou knowest quite well what we want!" 11:79
Prophet Lut rebutted them by..
He said: "Would that I had power to suppress you or that I could betake myself to some powerful support." 11:80
The Angels disclosed to Prophet Lut of their identity here.
(The Messengers) said: "O Lut! We are Messengers from thy Lord! By no means shall they reach thee! now travel with thy family while yet a part of the night remains, and let not any of you look back: but thy wife (will remain behind): To her will happen what happens to the people. Morning is their time appointed: Is not the morning nigh?" 11:81
When Our Decree issued, We turned (the cities) upside down, and rained down on them brimstones hard as baked clay, spread, layer on layer 11:82
Marked as from thy Lord: Nor are they ever far from those who do wrong! 11:83
It is high time world leaders lead their country by Divine Writ like Tony Blair.
