Armin Navabi’s Latest Writings for Queer Majority!

We are excited to share a new piece by Armin Navabi, which delves into the rarely explored history of same-sex relationships between women in the Islamic world. This enlightening article uncovers the historical erasure of lesbian and bisexual women in Islamic society, navigating through a terrain rife with male-centric viewpoints, active suppression, and often a hidden and stigmatized existence. From the ambiguity of the Qur'an's stance on women's same-sex relationships, to the oscillating social attitudes over time, Navabi illustrates the diverse manifestations of these relationships throughout history. The piece highlights their presence in poetry, resistance narratives, and even clandestine spaces like bathhouses and Ottoman harems. While acknowledging the prevalent hostility toward the LGBT community in Islamic teachings, the article emphasizes the ongoing debate over their treatment and the potential for more compassionate interpretations of Islam. Unearth this hidden history and join the conversation by reading the full article here: https://www.queermajority.com/essays-all/women-loving-women-in-islam
