Colorado Imam Sheikh Karim Abu Zaid: Muslims Cannot Align With Or Accommodate The LGBT Movement; They Want Us To Be Indecisive On The Subject, But We Cannot Unite With Them

Sheikh Karim Abu Zaid, the imam of the Colorado Muslim Community Center in Aurora, CO, said in a July 20, 2024 Q&A session that was livestreamed on the SAFA USA YouTube channel that there is no such thing as a Muslim aligning with the LGBT movement. He said that the sin of Lot's wife was that she was willing to "accommodate" sexual immorality, explaining: "What they want you to do is move [to] the domain of being indecisive." He added: "And you want to unite with this person?"

Sheikh Karim Abu Zaid: "There is no such thing as aligning with LGBT. What do you mean a Muslim aligning with LGBT? I'm still going to call him a Muslim? Give me a break.

"What was the sin of the wife of the Prophet Lot? What was her sin? No. She didn't have that resolute position that her husband had. Never would a wife of a prophet do something like that, but she was willing to accommodate. 'It's okay.'

"You see, there is a position of being determined, this is right or this is wrong. What they want you to do is to move from that domain to that domain of being indecisive: Maybe we should let, you know... So a Muslim entertaining that entire concept... And you want to unite with this person? On what foundation? Unite on what? Unity is on the truth."
