Asalaamu alaikum guys and welcome to another episode of Smile2jannah.
Today we're going to be talking about Monkeypox yeah.
This is another thing that's popped up in the media. We've just about got over a 'certain virus',
I don't wanna be mentioning the name and getting banned. This is Monkeypox, and this has come out -I think-
United Kingdom, United States, Portugal and España yeah so, in these four countries it's come out. And
it started of course with the monkeys and then now it's moved on to rodents. You can
actually get it from close contact with people. And according to Reuters and according to Daily Mail
it's within their community: homosexual community. Yeah so amongst the homosexuals this
is something that is spreading and expanding. Me mentioning this, does it make me homophobic? Does
it make the Daily mail Reuters homophobic? Is the disease homophobic? Because unfortunately & sadly
the case is that any time you say anything about you disagreeing with any of 'the letters' you get
called Homophobe, you get called a 'hate monger' or whatever the case is, so Allah protect us, but
you take from that story whatever you will, I'm not drawing any conclusions because it could be
any community and we pray Allah makes it easy and Allah protects us. But I thought this is a
good segway for us to talk about homosexuality. Some parents unfortunately and sadly they
are confused about how to deal with stuff like this. Firstly look understand that homosexuality
is a sin, just like other sins yeah, obviously some sins are more sinful and etc but sin does not mean
that you should be kicked out of your house and you should be disowned by your family. You should
be supported of course but sometimes parents don't know what to do. What are the four reasons- that
I found in the literature- that a person would be inclined towards homosexuality? I think this
is very important and I've got the acronym CALF; c-a-l-f. So the first one is child molestation. This
happens when a child is young and they they're allowed to play with their cousins and uncles;
unsupervised and trusted, even though in Islam we have segregation between the genders. "No no
it's all right it's family, it's just your cousin, it's just the uncle mate" and then you find out
what uncle ji's done, or what the cousin's done. There's so many cases in which this has happened
so you have to be really really careful because that's one of the things that inclines one
towards homosexuality. The second one is Abnormality. Now before you jump the gun
wait, this is the term that the book uses, and what they mean is it's an imbalance of hormones which
results in bodily changes. For example: your breasts developing later on, or it could be
facial hair coming later on so whatever the case may be, this is something you can go to the doctors.
You can get your hormone levels checked and then you can carry on or you can understand
why certain things are happening. And sometimes it helps knowing 'okay this is what's causing
this particular thing' and you're not going to fall within the trap 'oh it's because you like this' or
and then you get other people interfering with that sort of stuff. The other thing is 'lacking love'.
If your families are not giving you the love that you require from a young age then you are
going to try and seek it from other people, be it your friends, be it the people that are around you
well obviously if you're finding it difficult, even to make friends and you've got friends of
course of the same gender, then you might think you know what I can't make other friends or or whatnot
so I'll just stick with them, and you know they understand me more. And the more society becomes
accepting the more you'll start seeing that yeah yeah that's all right that's fine. And the last one
is 'friendship confusion'. This is when you have certain friends and you have of course a nice
friendship but because of education yeah because of media they'll say "no friendship actually means
this" so they redefine friendship and say "no because when you're close with somebody and
when they do stuff and when you hug and you do all this that's not friendship that's
romance" that's what that is so they are redefining something which is pure but the more you start
absorbing yourself in the media the more you start subhanAllah you know blindly letting your kids
take on board education, thinking all education is good, NO. Now the LGBT lobby is heavily involved
in education and the media. Even now Dr Strange; normally when it comes to these movies
when they're shown abroad like in Saudi they can request take that scene out
this Dr Strange, Saudi requested but they said no we're not we're not taking that scene out.
So guys I don't want to make this video too long, but I also wanted to give some context
about these things. And lastly some people... it's very important for us to say this that look,
just like the 'opposite gender' desire a person may have, or bestiality desire (your desire to
have relations with an animal. Or even necrophilia; (your desire to have you know intercourse with a
corpse). Or whatever it may be. Some people say "oh, are you telling homosexuals
you can't do this?" Yes. Because it's forbidden it's haram yeah, what about if my guy wants to
do it with the dead body? You know what I'm saying? The guy wants to you know 'get randy with
the corpse' what are you going to tell him? "I want to get randy with the corpse". "No you can't do that mate".
"What? You're telling me in my whole life I can't do that?" Well if that's what you're going
to do, of course you can't do that yeah!". So in Islam our ideals, our morals come from Allah (swt) it doesn't
come from society, which is constantly changing. We know homosexuality used to be considered a
sin even in these countries yeah so, it is what it is guys, hopefully that's given some context.
Of course we're not advocating violence towards anybody. We're not advocating harm and bullying
and stuff like that, what we're saying is this is our belief and for the parents that want to know
how they can identify these things and support their children in all aspects then those are a few
advices that I've been given. I'm not advocating for anything I'm just advocating that we follow
Islam, that's pretty much what I'm saying. I think I should be allowed to do that because 'freedom
of religion' yeah it's 'freedom of religion' just like you have freedom of doing whatever you want
in these countries, no problem that's fine but don't start forcing on me and my kids,
I should get to decide what I teach my kids and, let's leave it there guys yeah until next time,
Asalaamu Alaikum.
