Hey. I’ve made an entire essay regarding how the story of Lot has nothing to do with homosexuality. Even if you try to refute the “bal” argument, this other interpretation works for ALL translations and flows smoothly through the verses.

When we get new scientific and historical informations, these archaic patriarchal interpretations of Islam must be relooked at. For the past 1400 years our nonsense scholars managed to successfully twist scripture so that homosexuality is seen as a major sin, letting their personal biases get in the way. This ends now. What’s amazing about Islam is that it’s timeless. Islam can work for all time periods and can be adapted and interpreted in a way that fits modern times.
No. I’ve made an entire essay about this. In the Quran there’s only 3-4 verses which are interpreted to be against homosexuality but these verses are taken out of context: https://notability.com/n/08ySDW~Nt5FeHQ1q0~NqVd
