We all praise Him, seek assistance from Him and ask forgiveness from him. We seek refuge with Him from the evil of our souls, and the protection from evil deeds and wrong doings. He, whom, Allah the Almighty leads, no one can mislead him. And whom Allah, the Almighty misguides, no one can guide him. I testify that there is no god worthy to be worshipped, except Allah, the Almighty alone, and I testify that Muhammad is his slave and Messenger. Allah the Most High says in the Holy Book: (32:.i^i).5Lu- ‘CJdL>-ls (jlS <01 ^JjJl “And come not near to unlawful sex. Verily, it is an immoral sin’ (it is major sin) ‘and an evil way’ (meaning a terrible and unacceptable way to behave).” (Al-Isara:32) In the mentioned Qur’aanic verse Allah the Lord, the Creator has condemned illegal sexual intercourse. Adultery is one of the major, and worst sins. Fornication disgraces the nation, destroys the people, brings poverty and burns the values of the society. It darkens the future of the coming generation, because 4 the generation born through this evil act has the very germs of evil. Protecting the social life and human’s respect, Islam forbids this evil behavior. Writing about this topic, I would like to divide this topic into the following parts: Firstly: That adultery is one of the major and gravest sins. Secondly: Prohibition of Homosexuality Thirdly: A report on Aids , , Fourthly: That avoiding adultery is a great virtue. i As regard to the first part, the Prophet HI said that it i is one of the signs of the Last day. , i jl>I j>£)jlso S : CJls Jilc ,ii " dlJL Cx u~XJ' £>£ o, Ja!jjj I ) : (JyL; j 4jJlC I jJli-jJI JjLj Narrated Anas ^ he said: I will narrate to you a Hadith which none will narrate to you after me. I heard Allah's Messenger HI saying: From among the portents of the Hour are (the following): 5 1. (Religious) knowledge will decrease (by the death of religious learned men). 2. (Religious) ignorance will prevail. 3. There will be prevalence of open illegal sexual intercourse. 4. Women will increase in number and men will decrease in number so much so that fifty women will be looked after by one man. (Bukhaari) The mentioned Hadith sites that the prevalence of open illegal sexual intercourse is one the signs of the Last Day. No doubt, these days, the people who dare to say that they are very well civilized are in favour of this shameless act. When one involves in this bad act at that time his Eimaan is taken away from him.

If he does not repent and turn to Allah regretting for his sin he will lose completely his faith at the end, because the consequence of the major sins is infidelity. l Sheikh Al-Albaani declared it Sahih in Abu Dawood #4690, Mishkaah #60 and in Silsilah Al-Sahihah#509. 7 -o- S 5&3» : aJJI J13 : JIS Sj£i ^1 (*J* vjlii ^Jj (p-flll _>iaL _j.;i Jli) |»-«^>!

Abu Mu’awiyah added: HetM would not look at them and there is grievous torment for them: the aged adulterer, the liar king and the proud destitute. (Muslim and Nisaa’ee) Allah is the Most Kind, the Most Gracious to His creature, He is full of Mercy; but when human kind transgresses and breaks His limits then He gets so angry, no one can imagine! One of those who earns Allah’s wrath is an old man who is looking for adultery in his old age. Allah will not speak to him on the Last Day neither purify him of his sins and nor look at him with mercy. pJ—<_} 4-jJLe a!)

Allah is punishing the world in mysterious ways, no one sits to think why this is happening, why are the innocent suffering, the world is starving, many incurable diseases are occurring, people are slaughtering one another, there is no peace of mind and humanity is in crave of wealth and lusts. Because, the rich want to be rich in any way, that is why the Capitalists are imposing the world order on the poor nations and after lending them money charge many folds interest and are in favor of globalization. Particularly, the Muslim Ummah is under interest debts up to their necks. To fulfill the lusts the nations are very much involved in illegal sexual intercourse, which is a curse and curse takes one away from the mercy of Allah. <0)1 <0)1 L.$*■-£ <0)1 £ i t—>IaP MS J IjjJI Ijl" I J15 Jlij t fSUJI oljj ■ Jli) ".<0)1 Ibn Abbaas<& narrated from the Prophet he said: 9
