I have two questions in mind or maybe more that i would like to hear open views to without trying to be purposely awkward, ignorant or to cause any offence... Here goes:
I have grown up my whole life 21 years of living as a Muslim. However in only the past two years have I come to accept what I am, which for the topic matter is gay and a "Muslim" ( reason for inverted comas will follow as you read ).
I feel like that i am betraying Allah, by mentioning me being gay, and i don't like it. Ill be honest Islam is a lovely religion, however how can someone follow the religion if what they are cant be helped?
[food for thought] - Why do i feel constantly Repressed by the thought of going against islam?
i mean i have a little fear, that if i turn against Allah, or Islam that things just wont be good in life... i know that this is not the case in reality but thats the mentality vie some how adopted and would like to perish.
[food for thought] - Why do i or maybe others in a similar situation feel uneasy to want to be "atheist"? or "agnostic"?
How would i come out to my parents? whom are mulsim and not so strict. however i know them they would be so hurt for knowing that i am men inclined? i mean i feel like being cooped up in a mulsim culture and family and being gay has caused me so many stressful times. why do i feel like its socially restricted me? silly i know. one of my sisters know, and im sure my other two sisters do also.. but my older brothers would hate me for being gay this much i know because it will ruin their "reputation" my younger brother which is like my best friend i think will be accepting but.. will find it difficult. i don't know weird shit like.
