Yet gay rights groups in the West are much more concerned about devout Christians, who believe that what they do is immoral but do not want to kill them, than about devout Muslims, whose religion teaches that they are both immoral and should be put to death.
The Qur’an contains numerous condemnations of homosexual activity: “And Lot when he said to his people, ‘Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people.’…And We rained upon them a rain of stones. Then see how was the end of the criminals.” (Qur’an 7:80-84)
Muhammad specifies the punishment for this in a hadith: “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Loot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done.’” (Sunan Abu Dawud 4462)
“‘He is Gay’ Written on a Wall in Blood, as Algerian Student is Murdered on Campus,” by al-Bawaba, February 13, 2019 (thanks to the Geller Report):
A brutal crime in which an Algerian university student was killed has been igniting outrage in Algeria. According to reports ‘He is Gay’ was written on the wall, in blood, by the crime scene.
Local media reports confirmed Belalta, a third year medical student was killed by two unknown assailants who slit his throat and then proceeded to write “He is gay” on the wall, before stealing his car and fleeing the scene. Belalta was later found dead lying in a pool of his blood by his friends.
The traumatizing homophobic crime has shocked Algeria as well as Belalta’s friends and colleagues who gathered on Monday outside the medical faculty to pay a minute’s silence before holding a march through the streets against the lack of security on the university campus.
The Algerian police confirmed launching an investigation in the case without providing more details.
Regardless of Assil Belalta’s sexual orientation which is not yet clear, Algerian LGBT+ group, Alouen [Colors], accused local authorities and officials to fight organizations that call to criminalize homophobia. Those remarks were made two weeks before the crime took place.
