The ruling on naming the abomination of the people of Lut as sodomy
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
His Eminence the Shaykh: May Allah reward you,Some say: It is not appropriate to name the abomination committed by the people of Lut as sodomy; because it exposes the name of this Prophet. What is your guidance regarding this statement?
This is not correct; because the scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) say this,They say: the Luti,And they say: sodomy,And they even made the statement of a person to another: O Luti, is a form of false accusation (qadhf) for which the speaker is flogged eighty lashes, unless he presents clear evidence, or the person described by this attribute admits and confesses to it.
