The Sodomy QuestionThe Hebrew word is tsachaq and it means to laugh outright (in merriment or scorn); byimplication, to sport. 6 times the word refers to a contemptuous laugh.o Abraham 1 timeo Sarah 4 timeso Lot’s son-in-laws 1 timeThere are 5 places where this word appears in the Bible3 of the 6 very clearly indicate sexual activity.1 addition references are likely sexual in nature. Isaac and Rebekah – Gen 26:8.Isaac told Pharaoh that Rebekah was his sister. But later Pharaoh sees them‘sporting’ with each other. It must have been sexual as Pharaoh deduced she washis wife. Joseph and Potiphar’s wife – Gen 29:14,17.Joseph is accused of raping (Mocking) her. Dancing naked around the Golden Calf Ex. 33:6Translated ‘play’ See Vs. 25. they were naked.Likely to be sexual. Judges 16:25 The Philistines bring Samson to the Temple of Dagon to publiclyhumiliate and mock him. They made ‘Sport’ of him.Possibly Sexual Gen 21:9 Perhaps Ishmael sodomized Isaac as an insult. Whatever he did to‘mock’ him, it was so bad that Sarah saw it and demanded for Abraham to expelhim and Hagar from the house.Sodomizing Boys in Islam Pearls --- pearl in Arabic poetry is a feminine sexual symbol.Gender of a Minor Boy and Minor Girl is somewhat blurred in their viewpointFemales never become accepted as Adults --- They are minors and property.The woman is subject to her Father --- then Husband ---- then eventually herSons.13

Surah 52:24".Round about them will serve, (devoted) to them, young male servants (handsome) asPearls well-guarded."Surah 76:19 Allah promises fresh youths to Muslim men:".And round about them shall go youths never altering in age; when you see them youwill think them to be scattered pearls."Bukhari Vol 7 Book 62 #25".As for whom ever plays with a boy: if there is full penetration, then he shall not marry hismother."Fatwa from KhomeiniA man can quench his sexual lusts with a child as young as a baby. However, he should notpenetrate. Sodomizing the baby is halal (allowed by sharia). If the man penetrates and damages the(female) child, then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however, doesnot count as one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girl’s sister.It is better for a girl to marry when her menstruation starts, and at her husband’s house rather thanher father’s home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place inheaven.” –Khomeini, “Tahrirolvasyleh” fourth volume, Darol Elm, Gom, Iran, 1990III.The Prophet27.

So I went forthto do so and then, when I was midway on the mountain, I heard avoice from heaven saying ‘O Muhammad! thou are the apostle of Godand I am Gabriel.” Later his wife Khadisha persuaded him that he wasnot demon possessed. Finding him in a disturbed state she asked theprophet to let her know when the Jinn reappears to him.Sira 154 “ the apostle said to Khadija, ‘This is Gabriel who has justcome to me.’ ‘Get up, O son of my uncle,’ she said, ‘ and sit by my leftthigh’. The apostle did so, and she said, ‘Can you see him?’ ‘Yes,’ hesaid. She said, ‘Then turn round and sit on my right thigh.’ He did so,and she said, ‘Can you see him?’ When he said that he could sheasked him to move and sit in her lap. When he had done this sheagain asked if he could see him, and when he said yes. She disclosedher form and cast aside her veil while the apostle was sitting in herlap. Then she said, ‘Can you see him?’ And he replied, ‘No.’ She said‘O son of my uncle, rejoice and be of good heart, by God he is anangel and not a satan.’I told ‘Abdullah b Hasan this story and he said, ‘I heard my motherFatima, daughter of Husayn, talking about this tradition from Khadija,but as I heard it she made the apostle of God come inside her shift,and thereupon Gabriel departed, and she said to the apostle of God,“This verily is an angel and not a satan.”15

Segment ThreeThe Shariah Law1. You cannot have Islam without .2. Various interpretations developed in the Islamic world and various school’sjurisprudence developed called Madhhabs.About 700 years after Muhammad,came together to settle their differencesSchools of Islamic aydiMalikiHanbali27

Eight out of ten Muslims are going to be Sunni in doctrine, and theearliest and largest school of Islamic jurisprudence was Shafi’i.Because the Shafi’i school dates back to the founding Caliphs, theyare considered the most accurate, or fundamentalist school.However, the most popular and now the largest Madhhab is Hanafi.The Hanafi Madhhab was largely influenced by the OttomanEmpire, and I would describe them as the reformers of Islam. Theremaining schools are significant but not influential.3. The school won the day are wrote the Reliance of the Traveller (ROT).4. In 1991, it was translated into English with the stamp on pageXXI stating “we certify that the above-mentioned translation corresponds to the Arabicoriginal and conforms to the practice and faith of the orthodox Sunni Community.”“There is no doubt that this translation is a valuable and importantwork, whether as a textbook for teaching Islamic jurisprudence toEnglish speakers, or as a legal reference for use by scholars, educatedlaymen, and students in this language.”Dr. Dr. Taha Jabir al-‘AlwaniChairman of the Fiqh Council of North AmericaPresident of International Institute of Islamic Thought5.

They cover: Notes, Appendices,Biographical Notes, Index and Citations.HOW TO CITE THE ROT10. The ROT is cataloged with a number sequence.For example:c3.0 OBLIGATORY ACTSc3.1 ('Abd al-Wahhab khallaf:) Obligatory acts are distinguished in four ways,according to various considerations. One distinction is whether .c3.2 A second distinction between obligatory acts is made on the basis of whois called upon to perform them, namely whether an act is personallyobligatory or communally obligatory. A personally obligatory (fard al-'ayn)act is .c3.3 A third way Obligatory acts are distinguished is by the amount of themrequired, that is, whether the act is of a defined amount or an undefinedamount. Obligatory acts of defined amount are .11. If you were to cite Islam’s teaching on the direction in whichMuslims face when praying, you would reference it f6.0 In writing you would proceedit with ROT. For example: ROT f6.730

Not unusual to see the Hanafis haveone opinion on one thing, and the other three have the opposite opinion. Popular in thesubcontinent, and parts of the Levant.Shafi'i: Slightly less emphasis on analogical reasoning; more focused on evidences and methodological approaches. Popular in Egypt, and Malaysia.Maliki: Places special emphasis on the actions of the people of Madinah shortly after the Prophet'sdeath as a source of law (think of the residents of32Madinah as "living hadith".
