Is it permissible to engage in anal intercourse due to the absence of a text in the Gospel prohibiting it?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Intercourse in the front from behind is permissible, based on the Almighty's saying: "Your women are a tilth for you, so approach your tilth however you wish." However, anal intercourse is forbidden, based on the Prophet's (peace be upon him) saying: "Whoever has intercourse with a menstruating woman, or a woman in her anus, or a soothsayer, has disbelieved in what was revealed to Muhammad (peace be upon him)." Islam has abrogated whatever contradicts Islamic Sharia in other heavenly scriptures, and Islam is the religion accepted by Allah.
