What is the ruling on a woman who thinks she is a man because of a deviance (shudhudh) she has, and how should women deal with her?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Oct 24, 2026
Homosexuality is a disease of the heart and a satanic inclination. A Muslim must repel it by staying away from its causes and avoiding its temptations. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, cursed women who imitate men and men who imitate women. Both Muslim men and Muslim women must avoid this type of people.
