❖ Homosexuality: A Violation of Natural Laws and Its Consequences ❖
Homosexuality refers to the inclination whereby a person—male or female—feels sexual attraction toward an individual of the same gender, seeking to fulfill their desires through them. In Urdu, it is known as “hum jinsiyat,” “hum jinsi,” or “hum jins parasti.”
In the West, movements promoting freedom, equality, and fundamental human rights have challenged traditional societal values. It was asserted that every individual is born free and is master of their own will; hence, imposing restrictions on personal behavior is against the principles of freedom and equality.
Based on this premise, homosexuality was redefined as a “behavior” and was even granted philosophical justifications.
Initially, homosexuality was regarded as a psychological disorder:
➤ In 1952, the American Psychiatric Association included homosexuality in its Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).
➤ In 1973, under external pressure, it was removed from the list.
➤ In 1977, the World Health Organization (WHO) acknowledged it as a mental disorder in ICD-9, but excluded it from ICD-10 in 1990.
➤ Similarly in China, the Chinese Society of Psychiatry classified it as a disorder in 1996, but reversed the decision in 2001.
This was perhaps the only disorder whose classification was changed not through medical research, but through voting.
It is argued that prohibiting homosexuality violates freedom and equality, but in reality, every society maintains certain rules and moral codes.
For example, if someone claims the right to roam around naked, society would object. Similarly, prohibiting homosexuality is part of maintaining social order.
Another claim is that if two consenting adults engage in a homosexual relationship, it should not be objected to—just like consensual heterosexual relations.
However, not all acts based on mutual consent are acceptable by social or legal standards. Bribery or dowry are also mutual agreements, yet they are legally and ethically prohibited.
Some argue that homosexuality is an inborn or genetic tendency.
However, modern research has refuted this claim.
Even if someone has such tendencies from childhood, it should be treated as a congenital disorder, similar to how physical deformities are medically treated.
Nature has established a male-female distinction in all living beings for the purpose of reproduction and continuity of life.
✔ Human physiology and psychology are designed for attraction between male and female.
✔ Homosexuality challenges this natural order, leading to both physical and psychological harm.
The relationship between man and woman forms the foundation of the family, produces offspring, establishes social structure, and nurtures civilization.
Homosexual tendencies severely damage the institution of the family, as natural procreation and family formation become impossible.
Those promoting homosexuality are essentially contributing to the disintegration of the family system and causing social chaos.
Homosexuality leads to the spread of numerous dangerous diseases, such as:
❖ Hemorrhoids
❖ Anorectal Trauma
❖ Anal Cancer
❖ Syphilis
❖ Gonorrhea
❖ Hepatitis B & C
❖ AIDS (HIV)
AIDS is a global epidemic, and efforts to curb it are ongoing. However, studies show that homosexual men are 13 times more likely to contract AIDS than the general population.
According to the UNAIDS 2013 report:
“Although HIV cases are decreasing globally, the spread of HIV among homosexual men is on the rise—particularly in Asian countries where homosexuality has significantly contributed to the epidemic.”
(AIDS by the Numbers, p.6)
This is why blood donations from homosexual individuals are rejected in many countries worldwide.
Homosexuality is not only unnatural, but also poses severe physical, psychological, and social dangers.
It undermines the family unit, poses health risks, and fosters societal instability.
Therefore, preventing this unnatural act is essential, and those affected by such tendencies should receive psychological and medical treatment, rather than being legally encouraged.
