Islam in Quran-4

Life is sacred according to Islam:

[17:33] You shall not kill any person - for GOD has made life sacred - except in the course of justice. If one is killed unjustly, then we give his heir authority to enforce justice. Thus, he shall not exceed the limits in avenging the murder; he will be helped.

5:32 For this reason did We prescribe to the children of Israel that whoever slays a soul, unless it be for manslaughter or for mischief in the land, it is as though he slew all men; and whoever keeps it alive, it is as though he kept alive all men; and certainly Our apostles came to them with clear arguments, but even after that many of them certainly act extravagantly in the land.

Islam does not allow Nudism:

7:26 O children of Adam, we have provided you with garments to cover your bodies, as well as for luxury. But the best garment is the garment of righteousness. These are some of GOD's signs, that they may take heed.

7:27 O children of Adam, do not let the devil dupe you as he did when he caused the eviction of your parents from Paradise, and the removal of their garments to expose their bodies. He and his tribe see you, while you do not see them. We appoint the devils as companions of those who do not believe.

7:28 They commit a gross sin, then say, "We found our parents doing this, and GOD has commanded us to do it." Say, "GOD never advocates sin. Are you saying about GOD what you do not know?"

7:29 Say, "My Lord advocates justice, and to stand devoted to Him alone at every place of worship. You shall devote your worship absolutely to Him alone. Just as He initiated you, you will ultimately go back to Him."

7:30 Some He guided, while others are committed to straying. They have taken the devils as their masters, instead of GOD, yet they believe that they are guided.

7:31 O children of Adam, you shall be clean and dress nicely when you go to the masjid. And eat and drink moderately; Surely, He does not love the gluttons.

16:80 It is God Who made your habitations homes of rest and quiet for you; and made for you, out of the skins of animals, (tents for) dwellings, which ye find so light (and handy) when ye travel and when ye stop (in your travels); and out of their wool, and their soft fibres (between wool and hair), and their hair, rich stuff and articles of convenience (to serve you) for a time.

16:81 It is God Who made out of the things He created, some things to give you shade; of the hills He made some for your shelter; He made you garments to protect you from heat, and coats of mail to protect you from your (mutual) violence. Thus does He complete His favours on you, that ye may bow to His Will (in Islam).

16:82 But if they turn away, thy duty is only to preach the clear Message

Translation: by Yousuf Ali

4:15 If any of your women are guilty of lewdness, Take the evidence of four (Reliable) witnesses from amongst you against them; and if they testify, confine them to houses until death do claim them, or God ordain for them some (other) way.

4:16 If two men among you are guilty of lewdness, punish them both. If they repent and amend, Leave them alone; for God is Oft-returning, Most Merciful.

The Story of Prophet Lut a.s.

26:160 The people of Lut gave the lie to the apostles.
26:161 When their brother Lut said to them: Will you not guard (against evil)?
26:162 Surely I am a faithful apostle to you;
26:163 Therefore guard against (the punishment of) Allah and obey me:
26:164 And I do not ask you any reward for it; my reward is only with the Lord of the worlds;
26:165 What! do you come to the males from among the creatures
26:166 And leave what your Lord has created for you of your wives? Nay, you are a people exceeding limits.
26:167 They said: If you desist not, O Lut! you shall surely be of those who are expelled.
26:168 He said: Surely I am of those who utterly abhor your doing:
26:169 My Lord ! deliver me and my followers from what they do.
26:170 So We delivered him and his followers all,
26:171 Except an old woman, among those who remained behind.
26:172 Then We utterly destroyed the others.
26:173 And We rained down upon them a rain, and evil was the rain on those warned.
26:174 Most surely there is a sign in this, but most of them do not believe.

The story of Lut's people who has been repeated quite a few time in the Quran, tells us;

1- Prophet Lut a.s.warned his people about something on behalf of Allah expecting no reward from them , so obvioulsy he was appointed for this task.(some people deny it)

2- The warning was for MEN APPROACHING MEN FOR SEX, who were leaving behind their WOMEN/WIVES.

3- Natural/Biological MATES are MEN AND WOMEN.

4-Lut's people were punished because of this transgression from the NATURAL LAW.

5- Prophet Lut's and his people's story was a SIGN to remember and learn from.

Finding genetical/pscycological reasons in the name of 'science' to support an absurd idea is like offending the Creator and the purpose of the creation, who started this world with a man and a woman. If it's presumed as a reality then certainly Allah must be 'joking'....
