What is the ruling on a husband who has a tendency towards lesbianism speaking with his wife online, impersonating another girl to satisfy this tendency, claiming that he is avoiding what is forbidden?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Lesbianism is forbidden, and it is not permissible to encourage, spread, or promote it, because it involves loving the spread of immorality among the believers. Allah Almighty said: "Indeed, those who love that immorality should be spread [or publicized] among those who believe - for them is a painful punishment in this world and the Hereafter. And Allah knows and you do not know." It also involves striving to destroy family life. Therefore, one must rise above these evils and repent to Allah Almighty.
