ISLAMIC teachings regarding Sexual Relations

By M. Waqas (Ex MPA) • Sep 9th, 2008 • Category: Misc • 8 Comments

There is frequent discussion on TPS regarding sexual behavior, sex in Pakistan and rising trends of friendship among boys and girls. Let we know clearly that our lord ALMIGHTY ALLAH and his Prophet have laid down clear boundaries for men and women. Following are the few verses of QURAN and Saying of PROPHET (S A W) from sahih Bukhari.

17:32 Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is a shameful (deed) and an evil, opening the road (to other evils).

In this verse it is clearly described that illegal sexual relations are shameful deed and it open the road of all evils and resultantly defabricate the society.

24:2 The woman and the man guilty of adultery or fornication,- flog each of them with a hundred stripes: Let not compassion move you in their case, in a matter prescribed by Allah, if ye believe in Allah and the Last Day: and let a party of the Believers witness their punishment.

In this verse of sura noor punishment of such shameful act is announced because no one can be allowed to disintegrate the fabric of pure family system and pollute the atmosphere of muslim society. Punishment of married people is even worse .According to sunnah of holy prophet they shall be stoned till death.

24:3 Let no man guilty of adultery or fornication marry and but a woman similarly guilty, or an Unbeliever: nor let any but such a man or an Unbeliever marry such a woman: to the Believers such a thing is forbidden.
24:30 Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And Allah is well acquainted with all that they do.

24:31 And say to the believing women that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty; that they should not display their beauty and ornaments except what (must ordinarily) appear thereof; that they should draw their veils over their bosoms and not display their beauty except to their husbands, their fathers, their husband’s fathers, their sons, their husbands’ sons, their brothers or their brothers’ sons, or their sisters’ sons, or their women, or the slaves whom their right hands possess, or male servants free of physical needs, or small children who have no sense of the shame of sex; and that they should not strike their feet in order to draw attention to their hidden ornaments. And O ye Believers! turn ye all together towards Allah, that ye may attain Bliss.

In the above mentioned two verses both men and women are guided how to behave and move in the society and how to keep their modesty.

Following are the sayings of Holy Prophet reported by Imam Bukhari in his book.

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah’s Apostle said, “When an adulterer commits, illegal sexual intercourse then he is not a believer at the time he is doing it; and when somebody drinks an alcoholic drink, then he is not believer at the time of drinking, and when a thief steals, he is not a believer at the time when he is stealing; and when a robber robs and the people look at him, then he is not a believer at the time of doing it.” Abu Huraira in another narration narrated the same from the Prophet with the exclusion of robbery.

Narrated Abu Huraira:

The Prophet said, “Faith (Belief) consists of more than sixty branches (i.e. parts). And Haya (This term “Haya” covers a large number of concepts which are to be taken together; amongst them are self respect, modesty, bashfulness, and scruple, etc.) is a part of faith.”

Narrated by ‘Abdullah:

We were with the Prophet while we were young and had no wealth whatever. So Allah’s Apostle said, “O young people! Whoever among you can marry, should marry, because it helps him lower his gaze and guard his modesty(i.e. his private parts from committing illegal sexual intercourse etc.), and whoever is not able to marry, should fast, as fasting diminishes his sexual power.”

  1. Drear Waqas!

    It’s a pleasure to read your article which I waited for weeks on Pakistani spectator’s dash board as pending article, though at last, it turned up with immaculate verses of the holy qoran.

    It’s a real jewel pierced by beading in to a marvelous built in symphony.

    May! god bless you for your efforts?

    Waqas! I would definitely love to direct your attention and thoughts towards a standard patronization so to utilized the treasure of qoran and its verses as part of the process to upgrade and rectify the thoughts of general population at large belonging to any religion as caste ,cadre, races or community .

    It is not at all, a necessity to welcome my personal desire, but the point is that your built-in tendency as eminent writer would be a beneficial factor so to liquidate the idea of verses as the only legendary book of humanity to the unconcerned as well thereby realizing them to understand the basic theme and concept of Islam in and around such affairs.

    Waqas! It’s my personnel feel and ethical logic too, that whatever has been cited in qoran and practiced in lieu by the holy messenger Hazrat Muhammad (PBUH), has the ultimate essence of impregnated scent of belief and natural element of sense of obligation of abidance by humanity under any umbrella of school as ethical, moral, acceptable, lawful and palatable practice, without the element of human defiance. Such acceptances based on logic are known as natural instinct.

    The same practices to understand the theme of religion to the table of understanding, has also been the similar subjects of our prestigious (Ashaab), (Khulfa) (Aimma), (Auleea) (ulayma) and Pious Muslims at large. (Amar……….bil maaroof ……WA…..)

    Waqas! I think this is right time to get out of the horizon and sphere of the self curtailed boundary so to highlight the practices as logical dictation for the universe at large beyond the scope of single school of practice.

    You see! Why should one understand your version of thought in a format that is even difficult to be define by individual like me, but, with the consent and support of accepted scholars and their acceptable interpretation duly validated as per requisite criterion of legitimate platform of earn.

    Waqas you see we believe as obligation for being part and parcel of Islam and bearing as Muslim, as a basic element of faith, without any ifs and buts, what ever is cited and being displayed by our school, as principality of belief being Muslim and followers.

    But sir! Why should a person who has no bindings as such would indulge himself as something ethical, unless and until, it’s being floated in a version acceptable as per his understanding and thoughts.

    Waqas! Ethically we do not require proof to explain legitimate and prestigious flag so to assemble the thoughts of non Muslim towards Islam, as what has been said and floated as verses is the truth and is our belief as well.

    Here the point is that we should sort a way out to convey the message in a mode and method, that is accepted as logical part of bearing, as natural instinct of abidance by humanity at largebelonginging to any religious bearing, thereby understanding the slogan of Islam and its teaching as meaningful religion of humanity.

    Regards

  2. What does this mean Sameer?

  3. Are you requesting the bearded persons to screw you?

  4. Beware of such Quran being marketed as link appended below:

    Only read and get advice from the Quran brought to Hazrat Muhammad (S.A.W) by Jibrael (E.S)

  5. Sameer give respect take respect please

  6. AoA
    I really appreciate these efforts. unfortunately, more and more gievious sins are getting roots in our societ. Our people dont know what they are doing knowingly and unknowingly. Only we need is to read the Holy Quran and Ahadis with meanings. We need to understand Quran instead of just reciting it. Dreadful ignorance is prevailing in our society as far as Islamic teachings are concerned. We are going far from Islam. We are going astary. May allah forgive us. Ameen. Our young generation is suffereing especially. They dont know what Islam is. They dont know whats wrong and whats right. They dont know how to do what and how to lead life according to Islam. They dont know what Islam permits and what doesnt. The parents , the teachers and the whole society is responsible for letting such a young generation grow-far from Islam. I am fear the coming darkness and the wratrh of Allah for our doings. Our society is trying to surpass the west in evils.
    Forgive us Allah…..Ameen
