Muslim world's only mosque with Rainbow

I never imagine that there could be a mosque or masjid with a rainbow, especially in a conservative muslim-majority country. It can be a momentum for LGBTQIA+ muslims of Bangladeshi backgrounds to embrace the diversity of Allah. When I came know about this mosque, I was pretty shocked. It could be the only mosque in entire muslim world that has a vibrant rainbow minaret.

This mosque's name is Chawkbazar Shahi Jame Masjid, located in Chawkbazar, Puran-Dhaka. It was built by Emperor Shaista Khan. It is one of the oldest & largest mosques in Bangladesh. Guys, let me remind you of one thing: it is not a “LGBTQ+ friendly mosque." The mosque's rainbow minaret has also become a tourist attraction. It's ironic that the Bengali people living in this suburb have never had objections regarding the mosque's rainbow minaret. I think they are/were unaware of the symbolism of the rainbow, which stands for solidarity among queer and trans folks. BTW, there are some LGBTQI+ and hijra groups in the Puran-Dhaka suburb.

Homosexuality is a punishable offense in Bangladesh, under the British-inherited Penal Code Section 377. Hijras & kothis are visible queer individuals in South Asia. The South Asian term "hijra" refers to multiple genders, such as AMAB transgender individuals, transvestites, masculine women (intersex type), AMAB non-binary individuals, & intersex folks. The term doesn't include trans male. The term "kothi" specifically refers to transvestites, bottom gays, and effeminate males. Hijra community has existed since the early 10th century. In 2013, Bangladesh officially recognized hijras as a third gender. However, this subcultural gender minority still faces social stigma and discrimination.

“It is important to understand that a developing country like Pakistan majorly hit by chronic religious extremism, contrary to popular perception it has a huge LGBT population. As per unofficial records, more than 2 million LGBT population is living under severe conditions with very basic or no medical and social facilities. In recent years, Pakistan has been terribly hit by terrorism and this has affected life of a common man especially the LGBT community. There is a huge hidden gay and lesbian society and dating sites in every major city of Pakistan, but because of lack of rules and regulations everyone’s life is at stake. My motive is to spread the message to the world that Islam itself is a religion of peace, and this has to be conveyed to every Muslim instead of every Non-Muslim. Because of its peaceful nature there is a huge accommodation of LGBT people in Islam and this has to be sorted out especially in this 21st century.”

Circa una settimana fa, esattamente il 25 Luglio, questa giovane Capybara ha avuto l’immenso privilegio di intervistare (e di andare a mangiare una pizza con) Wajahat Abbas Kazmi, aka Il fondatore dell’ormai celeberrimo “Allah Loves Equality”. Quel giorno l’intervista è stata fatta in inglese: il Capybara era infatti in veste di core member di Women’s March Milano, ingaggiata da Women’s March Global che ci ha ospitati in una diretta Facebook sulla loro pagina ufficiale. Consapevoli che l’inglese sia ancora oscuro per alcuni e convinte che il messaggio di Wajahat valga la pena di essere letto e diffuso, abbiamo tradotto per voi l’intervista del 25! @kazmiwajahatabbas LINK IN BIO 🌸🌸🌸 #allahlovesequality #feminist #feminism #femminismo #femminista #islam #muslim #femminismointersezionale #lgbt #lgbtqia #womensmarch (presso Stazione di Milano Centrale (1864))

COPRIFUOCO E PROGRESSO

Questa dovete sentirla 😂

Eravamo su Zoom a discutere su DDL Zan, diritti e Green pass.

A un certo punto un negazionista fa

" Le moschee non dovrebbero essere costruite perché non la cultura nostra occidentale non è compatibile con la loro, soprattutto per come tratta la donna"

La nostra risposta è quanto di più blast possibile:

" Mh, dici?

In verità sapevi che la cultura islamica è ultramillenaria ed esiste da molto prima del Cristianesimo?

Sono proprio gli occidentali e i cristiani i violenti.

Le crociate chi le ha fatte? I musulmani? No.

Cristianissimi. Italianissimi e occidentalissimi.

La donna oggetto? Il berlusconismo? Gli anni 80 di non è la rai? Trump?

Tutto made in italy e occidente.

I musulmani rispettano la donna.

Denunce di femminicidio nei paesi islamici? ZERO.

In una sola città di 100 abitanti in Italia? Almeno 50.

Con il burqua vengono valutate solo per le loro capacità perché a bellezza sono tutte uguali.

E loro così possono essere libere di essere quello che sono.

Senza imposizione di depilazioni, fisico e trucco.

Mentre gli occidentali le impongono la minigonna per farsi accettare altrimenti sono sfigate e devono mettersi in fila.

Bodyshaming, mansplaining e sessimo a gogo in pratica.

Ah e ultima cosa.

La loro cultura lungimirante del burqua e tutte le protezioni individuali ha anticipato anni Luce la nuova normalità di mascherine e guanti.

Infatti da loro contagi zero."

GAME SET MATCH.

Dopo di questa ha abbandonato la chat per la vergogna 😂💪

In piena pandemia.

Sipario.

Piangiamo.

TweetStorm seeks end to Egypt's anti-LGBT arrests

TweetStorm seeks end to Egypt’s anti-LGBT arrests

This appeal for an end to Egypt’s anti-LGBT crackdown shows the rainbow flag that was hoisted at the concert on Sept. 22.

“We will not let the world look away while people are detained, arrested, tortured and even disappear because they are ‘suspected’ of being gay.” That’s why activists are calling for an online “tweetstorm” today, seeking the end to Egypt’s latest wave of anti-LGBT arrests,…

[themuslimgayguy]

Abu Bakr Al-Jassas (d. 981 AD/370 AH) and Mohamed El-Moctar El-Shinqiti argued that there is no legal punishment stated in the Qur’an for homosexuality and that it is not reported that the Prophet Muhammad had ever punished anyone for homosexual acts. There is no authentic Hadith reported from the Prophet Muhammad prescribing a punishment for homosexual acts. Hadith scholars such as Al-Bukhari, Yahya ibn Ma`in, An-Nasa’i, Ibn Hazm, Al-Tirmidhi, and others have all declared that the Hadith around the punishment of homosexuals were weak and fabricated. Therefore, STOP using Islam/Qur'an as justification to your VIOLENCE against queer Muslims! #AllahLovesEquality
