- Опубликовано: 30 апр 2019
- Junaid Jahangir discusses the current state of Muslims in the LGBTQ community, and what we can do for them moving forward. Dr. Junaid Jahangir is an Assistant Professor of Economics at MacEwan University. He has taught a wide variety of courses at the undergraduate level including Contemporary Canadian Economic Issues, Public Finance, Money and Banking, Labour Economics, Resource Economics, Quantitative Methods, apart from Microeconomic and Macroeconomic Theory. He is active in Edmonton interfaith circles through community presentations and has consistently published blogs and articles at Huffington Post, Edmonton Journal and Vue Weekly.
For over a decade, he has worked with Dr. Hussein Abdul Latif, a pediatric endocrinologist in Alabama to develop a renewed perspective of same-sex unions in Islamic law. His publications include a book chapter in the two-volume “Islam and homosexuality.” With Dr. Hussein Abdul Latif, he has co-authored papers that have appeared in the Journal of Homosexuality, Iran Namag, Theology and Sexuality and Oxford Islamic Studies Online. Their book "Islamic law and Muslim same-sex unions" was published in 2016 and was released in paperback in 2018. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Astaghfirullah! Astaghfirullah. Misleading and playing with words.
Shaytan has no power over us, except waswasa (words).
Should we kill all the men who are attracted to men? For a thing that wasnt their fault?
@@habim9670 being attracted isn’t what is sinful. It is letting that feeling become an action that is sinful. Of course you can’t really control what you’re attracted to.
@@khaledibrahim4889 i get that, but should those people fight themselves the entire lives, don't they deserve to be living happily? What if someone isn't attracted to women and is in an unhappy marriage for the sake of society.
@@habim9670 actually in Islam, that’s exactly what we’re commanded to do. To fight ourselves. I know it might be hard for you to understand, but we believe in a higher power, that deserves our respect, and obedience. We believe that this life is a test, and so we will all go through difficult things to please God, so that we are saved.
I know you might not get it, but for us, this life is just a test, not a place to relax and have a fun time.
My uncle always told me “don’t trust a sheick without a beard” I now understand why
Agree with you on that one
Don't trust any sheikh who goes against Qur'an and hadiths
😂
I get what you mean, but almost want to say that the opposite is right too. Don't trust a sheikh just because he has a beard.
Beard is not a sign of i'lm . It's the teachings of the sheikh which proves the knowledge . You are now insulting so many honoured personalities in Islam like Bilal {ra} .

Islamss...
This guy is not real Muslim if he doesn't read Hadith/Qur'an and he focuses on politics instead of Allah.
Indeed
As a muslim who's felt confusion about this, it's nice to see this as a conversation in the making. I don't know if I agree with it but I do know that only Allah judges. It's not my place or any islamic institution's place to force a specific muslim to behave in their personal vision. Countless people came to the prophet (SAAW) discussing their sins and the companions have been described as feeling discomfort, but the Prophet (SAAW) never encouraged hate or ridicule of even the worst of people. I can't argue that problematic contextual interpretation has been a thorn in Islam's side, but just because something is interpreted in a certain way that you disagree with, it doesn't make it wrong. Maybe the Quran definitively was meant to read that Homosexuality is a sin. No one alive today is the absolute authority so all we can do is try to be respectful to the people who take a different path to ours because no one should be directing your trek except you.
Shanu Aaliyah's Fan BR.Shaikh Ji
see that’s the thing, I didn’t say anything contradictory because I said something that was a Hadith, but even if I did that is the nature of our faith. Islam is the religion of truth and a Muslim is the worst example of it. So yes I encourage you to look up the scholars and find the information that is official and not just our own head cannon. Just be careful you don’t make up your own like you claim we have. Allahu Allem
@Shanu Aaliyah's Fan BR.Shaikh Ji “And (remember) Loot (Lot), when he said to his people: ‘Do you commit the worst sin such as none preceding you has committed in the ‘Aalameen (mankind and jinn)?
Verily, you practise your lusts on men instead of women. Nay, but you are a people transgressing beyond bounds (by committing great sins)’”
[al-A’raaf 7:80-81
Not Path Of Ours But Path Of God.
@Jolly Infidel What are you talking about? I'm not going against his guidance, I'm just saying we shouldn't judge another person's decisions. That's what the prophet (SAAW) taught, only god judges.

The prophet (pbuh) said: :My nation will be divided in 73 different groups and all of them will be thrown into the hellfire except for one: the path I and my companions are on."
I started off heavily disagreeing with him up until about the 5 minute mark. He does not make sweeping, over-generalizing statements and i can see the idea hes trying to preach. Indeed context is very important when it comes to understanding/interpreting the scripture. All i can say is this video gets a like from me for motivating me to do my own research on the subject of homosexuality in Islam. Thank you.
The story of Lut is actually a very complex one
Unfortunately people grind it down to homosexuality which is absurd
Icy Breeze Could you expand on that? Why do you believe it’s complex?
Bushra M It has multiple interpretations and we cannot know if it refers to homosexuality. Scholars aren’t sure if the narrative refers to greed, faithlessness or homosexuality. I don’t believe homosexuality was a thing in those days as it has only been medicalised (given a name) in living history.
Pauliepoika but people being attracted to the same gender has been around since thousands of years ago...
There's so many verses he has conveniently igonored.........do not trust anything in this world without authentic reference and proof.....he, however does not have much of both
I stopped listening to him the moment he implied every islamic group represents for themselves. The principle of Islam is clearly defined in Holy Quran and Hadith. Those who don't represent Islam by these 2 principle are not representing the Ummah at all.
I am what I am. And God loves us.

So you’re saying that Islam is violent? Cool
Have you people not hear of Surah Lut? Have you not heard that the prophet muhammad PBUH cursed the man that imitates a woman and a woman that imitates a man? If you haven't then check out both of them. This man speaks for himself.
The verse (Qur’an 26: 165-166) is the one that makes people think homosexuality is a sin.
أَتَأْتُونَ ٱلذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَٰجِكُم ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
English translations of this verse:
Pickthall
What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males,
And leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay, but ye are froward folk.
Sahih International
Do you approach males among the worlds
And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing."
Yusuf Ali
"Of all the creatures in the world, will ye approach males,
"And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay, ye are a people transgressing (all limits)!"
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
If you look the verse in Arabic the word, that is translated as "Nay" or "But", used is 'Bal' which is a particle of digression.
"When it is followed by a proposition, the meaning of the digression is either the cancelling of what precedes or
transition of one object of discourse to another."
That means the proposition that "Do you approach males among the worlds And leave what your Lord has created for you
as mates?" is negated by 'bal' and "You are a people transgressing" is affirmed.
The verse literally means that they were not just simply 'coming to men instead of women' but they were transgressing beyond that.
So, this leaves to 2 possibilities:
1. Coming to men instead of women is WRONG (is a sin) but people of Lut were transgressing even beyond that.
Or
2. Coming to men instead of women is OKAY(not a sin) but people of Lut were transgressing beyond that.
What do you think about it?

@@yonisw3649 i know lgbt muslims that are probably much more religious than straight muslims or possible evn u so leave the judging to allah swt
@@yonisw3649 yeah if you were LGBT you'd probably leave the religion
@@buttercup6815 but you're correct
I hope Allah will guide him towards the right
What do you mean by right way ? Do you mean who are from LGBT they are on wrong way ,we are also human being like other people.
@Juan Marcos Quiñones You are blinded by the media. Allah is not Satan because Allah is just a name, Allah is one god. Not 2 or 3 or more, And why are you blinded by the media? You blame the entirety of our religion because of the actions of extremists, well guess what? Your religion has people like this too! You just want to blame us for what ISIS has done, The only thing bad is that if islam takes over the world everything will be enforced over sharia law which is terrible
@Juan Marcos Quiñones well his is Allah Satan then, he's practically just a god we believe in, like you do. We are no different to you. Just different beliefs and more extremists, yet you go and decide to disrespect our own god we worship. Do you think people like you deserve a religion? You just go on showing hate to religions just to prove yours is the true one
@Juan Marcos Quiñones there is no cult with in this planet with 1.6 billion PEOPLE
@Juan Marcos Quiñones indeed you are a intellectual person, and i hope you make your decision based on knowledge. So i urge you to read the Quran before coming into any conclusion.
Makes no sense being LGBT and Muslim, it’s like eating meat and being a vegan or believing in god and calling yourself an atheist
@some guy yes only khawarij believe sins take you out the fold of Islam
@@arturasustinovas1283 saying the sin is not a sin and twisting the words of the Quran can take you out of the fold of Islam
Dr Junaid Jahangir, was very spiritual, thought provoking and morally courageous. I understand his message, that God loves all of his children and why not, who are we. If someone doesn't have an open heart or mind, then they will not get his message at all. Those people who want to deflect towards something else, don't get it. Dr. Junaid Jahangir comes with inclusion and peace, is that too much to understand.
My thoughts exactly
Thank you man ! Thats what I precisly thought
Mr. Junaid doesn’t talk about Islam & Hadith. Inclusion doesn’t matter here...
Anyone with a minimal understanding of Islam knows it’s a sin to create distinctions and sectionality within Islam. His first slide already removes any credibility he might have had
Those distinctions do exist
Number of dislikes shows he is all lie!
And all muslims know that.
This guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about.
Yes becuz there is no LGBTQ in islam
Yess correct
Chakib DJELLALI Bull, of course there is. I know loads of LGBTQ Muslims, and their faith is between them and Allah. No one can even say this as it’s haram.
@@Pauliepoika You cannot import new groups-ideas to Islam because some people may do it ... for EXP if some people may do wrong things like killing people then you add that adjective to islam only because of those... islam has made soooo clear that It is prohibited to Be LGBTQ like it did for killing people or drinking alcohol so stop that please!
Lewar Zebari Import new ideas? LGBTQ people aren’t new-what are you going on about?
Someone needs to press that *Reset* button on this thing.
Hahahahahahhaha 🤣
7:45 he left out the whole part where it said "they said,"have we not forbidden you from (protecting) people""
If you’re not a muslim, you dont have to agree with our religion. Just learn how to respect it. Respect different opinion, different religion. Dont have to criticise the religion. Youre just wasting your time.
As a Muslim, we are taught to respect our Christian neighbours and be nice to different people of different races or religion. Its not difficult. Really.
Why respect hate?
Respect only orthodox Christians and orthodox Jews.
They are cousin of Muslims
Right on. We are not you're friends according to the book of Islam.
So why come to Christian nations and live in a sinful society you hate?
No one has to respect anything or any religion including one that isn't in accordance with Western values
this comments section is filled with "muslims" who think homophobia and hatred is what will get them into heaven. I hope that works out for you guys.
muslim never think that
lyla 07 It’s just ignorance and what they’ve been fed. Homosexuality isn’t even mentioned in the Qu’ran...
@@Pauliepoika it is

@@Pauliepoikasearch it up u lazy barstad
Woah...that's a tough topic..
Still confused
That's why giving freedom of speech to everyone is a bad idea
No, it’s important at to know other peoples opinions
i don't what TED is upto? bringing such people to speak about Islam, i mean we need someone that spoke clear words from Quran & the Sunnah AND not about their own opinions about the religion.
Wow, look at the comments of all the peaceful muslims, so sweet.
Was that supposed to be offensive?
U clearly aren’t educated. Please speak when u are educated. LGBTQ is strictly forbidden in Islam

وَلُوطًا إِذْ قَالَ لِقَوْمِهِ أَتَأْتُونَ الْفَاحِشَةَ مَا سَبَقَكُم بِهَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ مِّنَ الْعَالَمِينَ - 7:80
إِنَّكُمْ لَتَأْتُونَ الرِّجَالَ شَهْوَةً مِّن دُونِ النِّسَاءِ ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ مُّسْرِفُونَ - 7:81
“And remember Lot (Lūt) when he said to his people: “Do you commit the worst sin such as none before you have committed among creation? Indeed, you practise your lusts on men INSTEAD of women. Nay, but you are a people transgressing beyond bounds.” (Quran 7:80-81)
The verse (Qur’an 26: 165-166) is the one that makes people think homosexuality is a sin.
أَتَأْتُونَ ٱلذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَٰجِكُم ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ

English translations of this verse:
Pickthall
What! Of all creatures do ye come unto the males,
And leave the wives your Lord created for you? Nay, but ye are froward folk.
Sahih International
Do you approach males among the worlds
And leave what your Lord has created for you as mates? But you are a people transgressing."
Yusuf Ali
"Of all the creatures in the world, will ye approach males,
"And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay, ye are a people transgressing (all limits)!"
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
If you look the verse in Arabic the word, that is translated as "Nay" or "But", used is 'Bal' which is a particle of digression.
"When it is followed by a proposition, the meaning of the digression is either the cancelling of what precedes or
transition of one object of discourse to another."
That means the proposition that "Do you approach males among the worlds And leave what your Lord has created for you
as mates?" is negated by 'bal' and "You are a people transgressing" is affirmed.
The verse literally means that they were not just simply 'coming to men instead of women' but they were transgressing beyond that.
So, this leaves to 2 possibilities:
1. Coming to men instead of women is WRONG (is a sin) but people of Lut were transgressing even beyond that.
Or
2. Coming to men instead of women is OKAY(not a sin) but people of Lut were transgressing beyond that.
What do you think about it?
Islam has very strict stance against LGBT . Its condemned in such a degree that previous people were cursed by God for following such activities. This guy is speaking for himself and has almost no clue of Islam.
I cant understand why tho?? People change the meaning of Islam every other day . Every other Schollar says somthing new everyday . I am a muslim and I dont understand why people cant be with who they love
I could give you a scientific answer being a student of science but you made it very easy since you are Muslim so here is the theological answer.
@@basil_uwu8541 because its not the scholar it is the Quran
"You lust after men instead of women! You are certainly transgressors.” Ch7 Verse 81
Bro you cant have opinion if you believe Quran is the word of God. Let me ask you do you believe Quran is the word of God?
Secondly all Abrahamic faith i.e Judaism , Christianity or Islam , all of them have the same stance .
@@basil_uwu8541 did the Quran and Hadiths change? No unless they change (which is never happening )the rules are the same.

Very misleading, every word he said is strongly wrong and lies
If you are Muslim and you are in LGBTQ. It's not a sin because anyone can fall in love but making a move towards it is a huge sin. Like I can have a crush on a girl but if I make a move it's a sin. Am I right?
Yes
Very accurate
@@ni-kiminaj2503 Ask a Sheikh or a Scholar. Pretty sure it's haram but I have no idea, so just ask a Sheikh at a mosque if you have one near you.

Wow this guy is sensitive, intelligent and eloquently spoken. It's a shame it's lost on everyone around him and in this comment section. He's done such good philosophical work to show that spirituality is more than following a rule book ~ I wish him the best of luck in his endvouers
If spiritual is more than following a religion then why he is a Muslim? He is a wrong in every aspect and he spreading misinformation if you are a muslim you will know that this guy don't know anything
then why doesnt he just do joga and meditate?
Stop lying! In Islam, you're not told to do anything, until you comply. You don't!
There is no such thing in muslim who practice according to his or her choice. Like i pray two times a day and you 7 times . Or i marry 10 women and you marry 1000 women like Soloman in the Bible.
Why the prophet Muhammad didn't only take 4 wives?
@@victorntwari2332 i forgot the reason but u can search it up. RUclips is a good example
@@victorntwari2332 because it was a special permission granted to him to destigmatize the statis of many woman as worthy companions and to help them out. For the majprity of his life he hd only wife who he loved and was devoted to as is the majority of ppl then and now. Then a few years after that he was allowed to marry other women and aometimes instructed by Allah to marry some to show how to treat your spouses with respect, how to be patient to help those women out to show that widows or women of other cultures are just as worthy as long as they are Muslim for marriage.
