Although they are not accepted and considered deviant by the majority of society, homosexual relationships are becoming increasingly prominent and openly declared, especially in modern times. Moreover, in some countries homosexuals are acknowledged and given empathy. This article endeavours to investigate this issue from the perspective of Islamic law. By using arguments from verses of the Alqur'an, the hadith of the Prophet, and the maqasid ash-syari'ah approach, this article refutes the practice of homosexuality in its various forms.
