As for the painful punishment that befell the people of Lot (peace be upon him), it was not because of the sexual anomaly that spread among them, but because of their disbelief, their highway robbery, and their assault on travelers!?
In this study, this suspicion is refuted by presenting and tracing everything mentioned in the Holy Quran, and the authentic hadiths and narrations regarding the crime of homosexuality, and what was mentioned in the story of the people of Lot (peace be upon him), and the reason for the severe punishment that was inflicted upon them.
Through this response, the clear and explicit Quranic position on homosexuality was revealed, that it is forbidden, criminalized and punishable in this world and the hereafter with the most severe punishments, and that the major crime that Lot's people (peace be upon him) committed was sexual anomaly, while the rest of the crimes are the repercussions and effects of this heinous crime.
The study also revealed the negative effects of this crime on the individual and society, and how to confront it in the Qur’an and through what was mentioned in the Noble Sunnah [Islamic laws].
