Answer: You yourself have acknowledged the fact that
homosexuality is unnatural and prohibited in Islam. After this, the only thing I
can say is that your problem seems to be psychological. I would therefore advise
you to consult a doctor. And if the problem is genetical as you seem to claim,
then even this does not give you the license to go ahead, for it is not a sin to
be afflicted with a problem, but it sure is one not to make an effort to get out
of it. If there is something truly beyond your capacity, then the only thing it
may warrant is that your accountability in this regard will be proportionate to
the free will you can exercise.
Moreover, you should consider your state as a form of
trial and test -- the principle on which the Almighty has created this world. He
created people in various moulds in various circumstances in order to test them
and reward them if they succeed in this test. If He has deprived people from
some faculty or some ability, it is to test them. He has created children who
are born blind or handicapped in some other way. If God is unfair to you, then
perhaps He is even more unfair to such children. I think that the correct way to
look at such departures is to understand scheme of the Merciful Creator on which
He has created us, for though each one of us has different circumstances, yet
each one of us has an equal opportunity to enter the Kingdom of Heaven on the
basis of the effort we make. |
