The Anbariya Sunni community has petitioned the Speaker and the Committee on Constitutional and Parliamentary Affairs on the LGBTQI+ bill which is currently before the house for consideration.
In a statement read by the head and leader of the Anbariya Sunni community, Sheikh Abdul Samir Issah Idriss, stated that they stand against the legalization of the LGBTQ+, which is a moral disorder and deviant behaviour.
”It is a moral disease, a sin and social corruption,” he argued.
According to him, no person is born an LGBTQ+, just like no one is born a thief, a liar or a murderer. People acquire these evil habits due to a lack of proper guidance and education.
He explained that LGBTQ+ in Islam is not allowed and should be condemned in no uncertain terms.
He said accepting LGBTQ plus all its additions by a Muslim society is at variance with Divine order.
The Quran (29:29) says, “Do you approach the men and cut off the highway and commit atrocities”, he added.
The Minority leader Haruna Iddrisu was in support of the delegation emphatically stated the Muslim community stand against the legalization and the formalization of LGBTQI+ in the country.
He said members are waiting for the committee’s report to be present at the plenary for debate.
