Book – Muhammad Qadaus:
Ahead of director Anas al-Deghaidi’s statement about his experience of cohabitation before marriage, Al-Azhar International Center for Monitoring and Electronic Fatwa confirmed the rejection of Sharia’s “so-called sad call for cohabitation” and said it was “rejected”. Religion and common sense, falsification of information, distortion of identity, calling things by other names and clear invitations to questionable and prohibited behavior.
During the hosting of his program “Al-Qarar” on Al-Ghad channel, two days ago, director Enas Al-Deghidi revealed a “surprise” about his experience of intercourse before marriage, meaning the presence of a man and a woman. One place without an official marriage contract.
Al-Azhar confirmed the fatwa, in an earlier fatwa published on Facebook, that Islam surrounds the relationship between men and women with a sophisticated legal system and restricts the entire relationship between them to marriage. To preserve their values and the values of society, and to protect their rights and the rights of children resulting from their relationship, on a staggering and unparalleled scale.
The center says that Islam prohibits illicit sexual relations, and what leads to them, and calls it “fornication” and a form of it called “cohabitation”… which falls within this forbidden relationship in Islam, and all other divine religions. and the heavenly book.
He explained: Sexual relations outside of marriage, even if their names are wrapped in flowery covers that confuse the youth, such as calling adultery “cohabitation” and “abnormality” “homosexuality” etc. – quite clearly – relationships that are forbidden to men and women and that refuse to promote our religious and moral values in a barbaric and deviant framework that crushes the meaning of virtue and dignity and responds to abnormal instincts and desires, without limitation the control of morality, religion , or prejudice of conscience.
He continued: Adultery is a major sin, the perpetrator violates religion and honor, and upholds morals and values, and Almighty God calls it obscenity and makes it clear that its consequences will be dire in this world and in the Hereafter. after a while Almighty God says: {And do not approach adultery, for it is an immorality and an evil way. [الإسراء: 32]. The prohibition of this great sin is not limited to Muslims; In the Ten Commandments: “Thou shalt not commit adultery.”
He warned that: To discuss the adoption of cohabitation in the full view of the people is an absurd and dangerous proposition which undermines the values, culture and identity of the society and is not related to any dimension or distance other than freedom of separation. Inherent values and religious education.
Al-Azhar believes that the purpose of presenting these calls clearly is to lead the society towards deviant practices and to present the forbidden in an acceptable form, destroying many strongholds of virtue in the souls of the youth, which are the cornerstones and strong pillars of society. , which warns of the dangers of resorting to God’s limits and prohibitions
He believed that both parties offered cohabitation to society as an alternative to or a prelude to marriage on the pretext of getting to know each other; It continues to corrupt the family and social system legally, morally and religiously and turns the refined marriage relationship between a man and a woman into a false joy, an attack on the dignity of women and a waste of rights. As a result of this relationship, children who start out corrupted only produce corrupted and corrupted results.
He considered that the audacity to propose immoral crimes and to try to normalize such abnormal and forbidden relations, through systematic, satanic planning, undermines the values of pure nature, destroys the system of morality, distorts identity. Interferes with the safety and stability of individuals, and society. This audacity is a crime condemned by those who do not value the guidance of heaven, the wisdom of reason and the call of conscience.
Al-Azhar Al-Sharif emphasized the support of fathers, mothers and cultural, educational and educational institutions to assume an educational role towards the youth that strengthens the values of good morals and religious virtues and protects them from falling. A swamp of lust and evil
He urged opinion, think tank and media to be careful not to use their platforms to propagate such base calls. intentionally or unintentionally; Spreading sedition or sin that disrupts the stability of societies and their people and promotes reprehensible immorality and foreign ideas that seek to undermine the principles of our true religion and the values of our Arab and Islamic societies.
