NIGERIA: Gays hesitate at the closet door

ABUJA, 14 August 2008 (IRIN) - There is no explicit gay scene in Nigeria, but in the Ibiza bar in the capital, Abuja, the action on the packed dance floor seems a little more exclusively guy-on-guy, a little bit raunchier than may be considered "normal".

lol. Islam is not devoid of people without sins, or tendencies to commit sins. What a true believer of islam has is the clarity of thought that it is better to struggle against evil. If a person has a homosexual tendency, a good example of what is clearly evil, he/she should fight it and never ever act upon it.

That is what Jihad is. Killing what bad in you. is like the saying; I, I die. Or something like that. Eliminate the negative, but accentuate the positive.

Mustay I can understand your need to defend your religion, however, try to understand the question.

It is not about Islam but About Muslims.

While what you have said is true, you cannot honestly expect people to believe that Musilms CANNOT have homosexual urges just because they are Muslims. So if thats the case for sure there can be gay Muslims. And even if it is not so, you are in no position to know how other people feel or the urges they have. Even fellow muslim brothers like you.

I want to believe that a muslim in this context:

Mu'min (Arabic: مؤمن‎) is an Arabic Islamic term frequently referenced in the Qur'an, meaning "believer", and denoting a Muslim that has complete submission to the will of Allah, and has faith (Ara. iman) firmly established in his heart.

In the Qur'an it is stated:

The Arabs of the desert say, "We believe." Say thou: Ye believe not; but rather say, "We profess Islam;" (aslamna) for the faith (al-eemanu) hath not yet found its way into your hearts. But if ye obey God and His Apostle, he will not allow you to lose any of your actions: for God is Indulgent, Merciful.

That verse makes a distinction between a Muslim and a believer.

Also:

(Muhammad Muhsin Khan 4:136) O you who believe! Believe in Allah, and His Messenger (Muhammad SAW), and the Book (the Quran) which He has sent down to His Messenger, and the Scripture which He sent down to those before (him), and whosoever disbelieves in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, and the Last Day, then indeed he has strayed far away.

That verse addresses the believers, exhorting them to believe, implying multiple stages of belief.
