Perhaps that can be better said as "I still hold by the reasoning of..how can a muslim be a muslim..and be actively gay? It just doesn't go.."
The same statement holds true for those of us who are unmarried heterosexual.
"I still hold by the reasoning of..how can an unmarried muslim be a muslim..and be heterosexually active? It just doesn't go.."
I do not think it is a person's orientation that is the problem, it is how the orientation is handled that can cause problems.
Salaam,
The Propeht said,marriage is part of the deen.
But if you dont it is not a sin,but abstain from doing harmful and unIslamic action.
But same sex copultaion is Haraam.
