Question


I read an article about Lebanon and it was written that the law there lets Lebanese men have sex with animals, but only female animals. I was very surprised, and I am wondering if it is true or not.

 

Answer


Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,

I pray that this finds you well, and in the best of health and spirits. May Allah grant you all good and success in this life and the next.

Intercourse with animals goes against all moral values, and is an enormity and major sin (kabira) in Islamic Law. [ Ibn Abidin, Radd al-Muhtar; Ibn Hajar, al-Zawajir]

I don't know about Lebanese law, but this appears to be exceptionally far-fetched.

And Allah alone gives success. Faraz Rabbani
