Fort some reason the cleric is under the impression President Fabulous signed a “homosexual marriage law.”
(ABNA) – Ayatollah Muhammad al-Ya’qoubi, an Iraqi source of emulation, harshly criticized the recent legalization of same-sex marriage by the Supreme Court of the United States.
“The approval of the homosexual marriage law by Barack Obama was intended to lowering the status of humans to animals, but it is even lower than that,” he said.
On June 26, 2015, the United States became the twenty-first and most populous country to legalize same-sex marriage. Critics say that same-sex marriage will lead to the disintegration of the institution of family and the sanctity of marriage.
His Eminence pointed to verse 44 of the Quranic chapter “al-Furqan” (“The Criterion”), which states:
“Do you suppose that most of them listen or exercise their reason? They are just like cattle; indeed, they are further astray from the way” [25:44].He said that the practice of homosexuality is against human nature and the laws of creation. This action is not even practiced by animals because the nature of all creatures is for marriage and procreation between male and females.
The Iraqi scholar stated that homosexuality is contrary to the laws of personal privacy and stated that it is an infringement which means it is a violation of laws of reason.
