A Shi’ite hadith has Muhammad saying: “If a man engages in sexual intercourse with another male, Allah’s throne trembles because of it. A man who allows anal sexual intercourse will be held by Allah on the bridge over the hell until he will complete the accounts of the creatures: then he will command to send him to hell in the levels of which he will suffer one after the other until he arrives in the lowest level from which he cannot come out.” (Al-Kafi H10151, ch. 186, h 2)
“Iran’s regime executed two men based on anti-gay charges,” by Benjamin Weinthal, Jerusalem Post, January 30, 2022:
The Islamic Republic of Iran continued its lethal homophobic policy, executing on Sunday two men based on its anti-gay Sharia law system.
The two Iranian men, Mehrdad Karimpou and Farid Mohammadi, were killed in the Maragheh prison in northwestern Iran, according to the organization Human Rights Network in Iran. The men were arrested six years ago.
Iran’s regime frequently uses the charge of sodomy to impose the death penalty on gays and lesbians. According to a 2008 British Wikipedia dispatch, Iran’s theocratic state executed between 4,000 and 6,000 gays and lesbians since the country’s 1979 Islamic revolution.
Human Rights Network in Iran said the Iranian regime-controlled media has not reported on the executions of the two men based on the country’s anti-gay law.
Iran Human Rights Monitor tweeted that “The Two #Iranian men were executed today after being found guilty of charges related to homosexuality. #Humanrights websites identified the men as 32 yo Mehrdad Karimpour & Farid Mohammadi. They were arrested 6 years ago & were in Maragheh prison until their execution.”…

These mozlums are such hypocrites….the old males who have societal clout, rape little boys and rape little girls, but pretend that they are so moral. Instead, they are demonic and have no actual morals They just love to be murdering people and will make up any old excuse to do so.

Grimly spot on, Somehistory. Raping little boys or homosexual rape intended to humiliate is seldom criminalized. but consensual same sex relationships, as here, are murderously put down. *Ugh*.
Jim says
This is what happens when fanatics take Islamic scriptures literally, the clerics reinforce this aberration, and society defends this on the basis of claiming one has to respect everyone’s beliefs. It is not radical extremism, it is extremism promoted by the institutions of a world religion.
gravenimage says
Sadly, Jim, this is not extremism under Islam.
There is also the death penalty for homosexuality in Brunei, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Mauritania, Qatar, Afghaistan (even before the Taliban took over again), Somalia, the UAE, and parts of Nigeria under Shari’ah law.
Rufolino says
There are many people in Western populations who hate gay people just as much as these Islamic barbarians, and they see themselves as civilised. But the climate of these ” diverse” times means they don’t say so. Ask the Roman Catholic Church, which is in practice (whatever it claims !) utterly intolerant of homosexuals, but which is, because of its hypocrisy, incapable of dealing with reality.
James Lincoln says
Rufolino says,
“There are many people in Western populations who hate gay people just as much as these Islamic barbarians…”
Yes, and that is indeed unfortunate.
But at least the overwhelming majority of those Westerners do not take any action in regards that hatred.
Gays are “generally safe” in Western countries.
Wellington says
Many in the West hate what they perceive to be the sin which is different from hating the sinner per se. And even assuming hatred of the sinner, almost no one in the West wants to kill the sinner while per Islamic law and Muslims by the millions the Mohammedan world does want exactly this.
One must be very careful with comparisons lest they lead that person to moral equivalency thinking which is invariably an error. Let me put it another way: if one is gay is it better to be amidst Christians and Jews or amidst Muslims?
Mark Spahn (West Seneca, NY) says
“A man who allows anal sexual intercourse will be held by Allah on the bridge over the hell until he will complete the accounts of the creatures: then … .” (Al-Kafi H10151, ch. 186, h 2)
There’s a bridge over hell? For what purpose? What does it mean to “complete the accounts of the creatures”? What creatures? What accounts? What kind of accounts, financial accounts, or recitations? What happens if the man refuses to complete these accounts?
gravenimage says
This means until the end of the world, until there are no more humans to send to hell for not murdering Infidels…

Islam just loves killing people. The punishments in islam, for all sorts of crimes or misdemeanors are beyond ridiculous and are the sort of garbage that a primitive, stuck back in the 7th century religious ideology would come up with. Islam is one extremely sick ideology. I mean, say, for murderers and serial killers, execute them, but execution for homosexuals is completely ridiculous and belongs back in mankind’s primitive past. But that’s what is Islam is, a primitive leftover that should have disappeared ages ago. Then you have all those honour killings of women over trivial matters. islam just loves murdering people.
mortimer says
Agree: ‘Islam loves killing people’. That is because it is a true death cult.
Mohammed’s first generation of jihadists had a slogan: ‘We love death.’
Muslims of today are still in this death cult, even if they cannot admit it to themselves. They should be ashamed to remain Muslim for that reason.
tim gallagher says
Yes, it’s a hideous ideology, mortimer. And I agree with what you say there about how Muslims should be ashamed to belong to such a backward, primitive ideology. Muslims kill people over absolute trivialities as evidenced in some of those young women being murdered in honour killings over pretty much nothing. Islam and its rules are for knuckle draggers from mankind’s way distant past. Its nonsense does not belong in the modern, post-the Enlightenment world.

Good exchange, Tim and Mortimer.
Walter Sieruk says
The tile of this message is well put if it would be “homosexuals in Iran” and not “Homosexuals who live in Iran.” For many of them are six feet under in Iran as in dead and buried. As exposed in a book by a former Muslims .Which reveals that “Estimates by human rights activists and opponents of the Islamic Republic of Iran of the number of gay men and lesbian s executed for crimes related to their sexual orientation since 1979 vary between several hundred to as many as six thousand. According to the Boroumand Foundation, records exist for at least 107 executions with charges related to homosexuality between 1979 and 1990 . Iran is one of the eight countries in the world when homosexual acts are punishable by death; all are Islamic. According to a 2013 report from the IHRDC:” [1]

You aren’t wrong, Walter:
“Iran executes ‘high number’ of gays, says German intelligence”
https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/iran-executes-high-number-of-gays-says-german-intelligence-630751
And this doesn’t include the number of gay people murdered by their families or by other random Muslims there.
Walter Sieruk says
“The Islamic republic of Iran exists and operates as what every fundamentalist dreams of, an Islamic state ruled by Sharia law …” [1] It thus should be known that Sharia law is full of brutal cruel and even murderous misogyny.
About Islamic law [sharia]. It should be made known that the actual origin of Sharia law is revealed in a Time –Life book with the title MESOPOTAMIA: THE MIGHTY KINGS copyright 1995. The point is this history book about the ancient pagan world of Mesopotamia informs the reader that “many Islamic laws resemble the Babylon and Assyrian forebears.” .page 150.
There is the above and other references imply that such pagan teachings were incorporated into the religion that Muhammad manufactured and then started.
Thus this further reveals that a lot of ancient paganism is part of the whole religion of Islam.
In other words, ancient paganism makes up much of Islam. Therefore Islam with its Sharia are a hoax .

Just horrifying–these poor men.
God, I hate Islam.
tim gallagher says
Yes, it’s hideous stuff, gravenimage, this Islamic murdering people over trivialities. But that’s islam for you. As you often say, you hate Islam and that’s exactly what it deserves from all decent, humane people. I asked this question up above, but, the past 3 days or so, when I click on Jihad watch, I get this page from Plesk whereas I used to be sent straight to the articles. I have no idea what Plesk is, but it is pretty annoying. Do you know what this Plesk business is all about? As I’ve said before, I wouldn’t have a clue about computer technology, so this Plesk thingo is a mystery to me..
gravenimage says
Tim, this is so true about Islam–there is no “live and let live” in this vicious creed.
On the other matter, all I know is that Plesk is some sort of hosting system, but I have never run into it myself–and certainly not with Jihad Watch.
You might want to go to the “Contact Us” box on the right-hand side of the page and send a message asking about Plesk–not the first box, but the second, which reads “For technical issues regarding the site”. Marc should be able to help you.
tim gallagher says
Thanks for that information about Plesk, gravenimage. Maybe this is something that is happening in Australia. I don’t think it is anything to do with my own computer as everything seems to working fine. If I click on the main heading for Jihad Watch – Exposing, etc, then you run into this Plesk garbage. I thought it might be some mischief making scammers trying to damage Jihad Watch. Today, I clicked on Robert Spencer’s name and got in to view only the articles he has written. I can’t access other articles. It is a problem. I’ll give that “contact us” a go. I figure that there would be people who want to put Jihad Watch out of action. I’ll try that a bit later on as it is 1.30 in the afternoon and I have a short siesta now on most days. Must be part of getting old and tired.
OLD GUY says
Why would the American political leaders want to import millions of islamic followers that believe it’s ok to rape small girls and boys and women and accept the murder of adultery and consensual adult sex partners Yep Islam is the answer to diversity, the larger the population of Islam the less diversity the world will have.
