No, Islam doesn't allow homosexuality and is considered a sin. Read up about the events of Lut's nation which was destroyed because everyone began engaging in this activity of homosexuality.
Lowdown on Islamic marriages? Not much idea, except that women aren't allowed to engage in much activities outside the house.

Apparently Islam doesn't allow anything at all. There are extreme penalties for not complying with all of the rules/laws promulgated by corrupt, evil, power-mad clerics.
The Quran states;"There shall be no compulsion in the religion." But the above-mentioned clerics have made everything about Islam either compulsory or forbidden. These clerics, and those who follow them, are in violation of the Quran and have perverted Islam.
I'm glad I'm an athiest.

I checked the first URL and said interior the Islam and Sexuality FAQ that they have got not stated hadeeth about the Prophets pointing out the permissible and non permissible acts in marriage. Anal sex is one in all them. The Quran gained't element out it explicitly because that is a mouthful and extremely gross detailism. God is previous that. that is why the Prophet change into despatched. So from my expertise of 9 years of Islamic ed, i can obviously say that homosexuality between 2 adult adult males is easily not ALLOWED. by utilising sheer basic experience, i can allow you to recognize that more often than not, homosexuality isn't allowed in Islam because there are verses and hadeeth saying that adult adult males could not act like women people and women people could not act like adult adult males. As for the tale of Lot, the Quran does not actual element out the be conscious 'homosexuality' besides the undeniable fact that the tale because it change into defined by utilising the Prophet, in touch a lot of people, having sexual orgies out interior the OPEN. The Islamic ruling on homosexuality is as a outcome to flow by utilising the final ruling on sexual affairs. a million. Islamic courrts can not do something about an action that is taking position interior the walls of a persons' living house and does not have eye witnesses. 2. each and every thing is allowed between husband and spouse except anal sex. 3. adult adult males who act like women people and women people that act like adult males are considered as abominations and are collecting sin infront of Allah. Islamic courts cant do something about them. yet they'll pay for it interior the hereafter.

committing a homosexual act is one of the sins that is punishable by death (Hadd punishment) under Sharia law. The other crimes that carry a death penalty is apostacy (when a muslim leaves Islam), a married or previously married person having sex with someone who is not their legal spouse, and murder.

Please see this link for a list of all the rights and duties involved in Islamic marriage:
http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/10680/husband%20wife
http://www.islamqa.com/en/ref/33597/angels%20curse...
Basically, the husband is in charge of the wife and she must obey everything he says unless he tells her to go against Islam. If she is disobedient, the husband has the right to punish her by withholding food/maintenance/clothing, banishing her from his bed, and lastly, by beating her. A wife is not allowed to say no to her husband's demand for sex any time he wants it, unless she has a valid Sharia reason (menstruation, obligatory prayer or fasting, or injury so severe that intercourse would further injure her). This is why there is no such thing as "spousal rape" in Islam, because the wife does not have the right to refuse sex.

They (gays and lesbians) both go against the natural disposition (fitrah) which Allaah has created in mankind – and also in animals – whereby the male is inclined towards the female, and vice versa.
Whoever goes against that goes against the natural disposition of mankind, the fitrah.
>>All the Abrahamic religions consider homosexuality to be an "abomination in the eyes of the Lord", not "just" a sin.

No, just like Christianity, Islam does not allow homosexuality, either.
God says it's forbidden.

Neither does Christianity for many of the same reasons, so I don't see why you are focusing on Islam.
