This is an injustice being attributed to Allah ﷻ similar to how christians believe that people were born with the original sin. Nay, we say just like Rasulullah ﷺ and the Salaf said, that every child is born upon the Fitrah, then it is the parents that turn him into a jew, christian or majoos (zoroastrian). Meaning, it is their parents or environment that corrupts their Fitrah. Otherwise this Ayah Ar-Rum 30:30 - would have no meaning to a person born in a such a state of major sin. Because what he said could be used as a justification by the people of shirk (polytheism and atheism) too, claiming that they were born that way? Just because you want to mold into the american society and seem tolerant, doesn't mean that you should quote what some misguided person said 200 years ago and make it look as if that's what Islam teaches. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, فِطْرَتَ اللَّهِ الَّتِي فَطَرَ النَّاسَ عَلَيْهَا ۚ لَا تَبْدِيلَ لِخَلْقِ اللَّهِ ۚ ذَ‌ٰلِكَ الدِّينُ الْقَيِّمُ وَلَـٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ Allah's Fitrah with which He has created mankind. No change let there be in Khalq-illah (i.e. the creation of Allah i.e. the Fitrah - Islamic Monotheism): that is the straight religion, but most of the mankind know not. [Ar-Rum (the Romans) 30:33] The Khalq-illah (i.e. the Fitrah) is the original state, and then that original state is changed by something else, and that's what the Ayah is stating. And that refutes the notion that the original state could be anything other than the Fitrah. There were early Muslims that hinted at evolution - way before the west swallowed it. Now, does that make evolution true? No! Kadhalika (then likewise), just because someone said something a long time ago that people agree with today, doesn't render that old statement into a Hujjah (proof). He knows this. But still he's doing Qiyas by turning the opinion of fulan from 200 years ago into the Asl, then applying it to the Far' (opinion of westerners today), and the 'illah (effective cause) is "tolerance", and then he comes up with a Hukm. Yet he claims to be a person of Usul Al-Fiqh, babbling about the Usuliyeen this and the Usuliyeen that. Nay, we follow the Qur'an and Sunnah in accordance with the understanding of the Salaf (pious predecessors) of this Ummah. And not what fulan or fulan said. That's pure opinion (Ray'). And Ray' is not a source in the Sharee'ah. But let's say that one of the people that engages in the acts of the people of Lut عليه السلام hears this talk, and then thinks to himself that he was born that way, and then he reads the above Ayah. Now, wouldn't he dismiss the Ayah due to your mention of what fulan said 200 years ago? Where's the cautiousness against ignorantly misleading people into erroneous conclusions? No responsibility whatsoever. Rather the Ayah is negating that anyone is born except upon the Fitrah. And the Sunnah emphasize this too. That's because the Ahlul Bid'ah follow the 'Aql and not the Naql. Because if people were born that way, then sending Messengers wouldn't be needed. Are you saying that the people of Lut عليه السلام were dealt with injustice. So they will come up on the Day of Judgement and plead: _"O Allah, we didn't do anything other than the major sin that You created us with, how can it be our fault?"_ Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, رُّسُلًا مُّبَشِّرِينَ وَمُنذِرِينَ لِئَلَّا يَكُونَ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَى اللَّهِ حُجَّةٌ بَعْدَ الرُّسُلِ ۚ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ عَزِيزًا حَكِيمًا Messengers as bearers of good news as well as of warning _in order that mankind should have no plea against Allah after the (coming of) Messengers._ And Allah is Ever All-Powerful, All-Wise. [An-Nisaa' 4:165]

[@Ibn_Abdulaziz]

You see the injustice it ascribes to Allah ﷻ? Not only does it ascribe shortcomings like injustice to Allah ﷻ, it renders the Hudud unjust, and renders Risalah (Messengership) and Wahy (Revelation) irrelevant. And it creates determinism (Jabr). Meaning, that people are forced into sinful ways and that they have no free will just like shaytan who was the first determinist and founder of the Jabariyyah doctrine (determinism), ended up blaming his disobedience on Allah ﷻ. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, قَالَ رَبِّ فَأَنظِرْنِي إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ يُبْعَثُونَ [Iblis (Shaytan - Satan)] said: "O my Lord! Give me then respite till the Day they (the dead) will be resurrected." قَالَ فَإِنَّكَ مِنَ الْمُنظَرِينَ Allah said: "Then, verily, you are of those reprieved." إِلَىٰ يَوْمِ الْوَقْتِ الْمَعْلُومِ "Till the Day of the time appointed." قَالَ رَبِّ بِمَا أَغْوَيْتَنِي لَأُزَيِّنَنَّ لَهُمْ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَأُغْوِيَنَّهُمْ أَجْمَعِينَ [Iblis (Shaytan - Satan)] said: _"O my Lord! Because You misled me,_ I shall indeed adorn the path of error for them on the earth, and I shall mislead them all." إِلَّا عِبَادَكَ مِنْهُمُ الْمُخْلَصِينَ "Except Your servants among them Mukhlaseen (sincere who worship You exclusively)." [Al-Hijr 15:36:40] Iblis is saying: _"O Allah, You already knew that I would disobey You, yet You did not prevent it from happening, so You misled me. It was Your fault and not mine."_ Iblis is robbing free will and choice from himself, he is blaming his sin on the Foreknowledge of Allah ﷻ. But he refutes himself, because why didn't he ask for forgiveness? Instead he asked for respite. So did Allah ﷻ force him to ask for respite too? Because Iblis is acknowledging his sin and admitting that what he did was wrong by ascribing misguidance to what he did, yet he asks for respite instead of forgiveness? So did Allah ﷻ prevent him from turning back to Him with Tawbah (repentance)? No, he chose kibr (arrogance), fisq (rebelliousness) and asked for respite until he was given it. See why he asked for respite in Al-Israa' 17:62. Whereas Adam and Hawwa' عليهما السلام also disobeyed their Lord. But instead of robbing themselves of free will and blaming their disobedience and sin on Allah's ﷻ Foreknowledge for not preventing it, nor becoming deluded determinists that ascribe injustice to Allah ﷻ - they blamed it on themselves, on their own shortcomings, thus acknowledging responsibility and free will, and then repenting by asking for forgiveness until they were forgiven. See Al-Baqarah 2:37. Allah ﷻ forgave our parents, and there's no such thing as "the original sin". They are of the people of Jannah who will return to their Home that they were expelled from for this world of toiling and testing and the abode of deeds, reaching truth and reaching realization. So both Iblis vs Adam and Hawwa' عليهما السلام were given what they asked for. Respite vs Forgiveness. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, وَنَادَاهُمَا رَبُّهُمَا أَلَمْ أَنْهَكُمَا عَن تِلْكُمَا الشَّجَرَةِ وَأَقُل لَّكُمَا إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَكُمَا عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ And their Lord called out to them (saying): "Did I not forbid you that tree and tell you (aforetime): 'Verily, Shaytan (i.e. Iblis) is an open enemy unto you?' " قَالَا رَبَّنَا ظَلَمْنَا أَنفُسَنَا وَإِن لَّمْ تَغْفِرْ لَنَا وَتَرْحَمْنَا لَنَكُونَنَّ مِنَ الْخَاسِرِينَ They [Adam and Hawwa' عليهما السلام] said: _"Our Lord! We have wronged ourselves. If You forgive us not, and bestow not upon us Your Mercy, we shall certainly be of the losers."_ [Al-A'raaf 7:22-23] And from this we learn that Allah ﷻ gives respite and time to wrong-doers to come back to Him with repentance. And that He is Oft-Forgiving and Most Merciful to those who do that. And also that people have free will while Allah ﷻ is the Creator of their deeds at the same time because He has no partner creator alongside Him like the dualist polytheists (majoos, horus vs seth, dark vs light, yin vs yang) believe. Meaning that both the Qadariyyah and Jabariyyah are misguided, and that the truth is in the middle path when understanding Al-Qadr (Predestination). And that is the Salafi 'Aqidah. O Muslims, becareful, because you are living in the west and are heavily being affected by their values just like the Bani Israa'il (Children of Israel) who grew up in Egypt were, until they worshipped the calf when Musa عليه السلام was away for 40 days worshipping Allah ﷻ. Think about it, they worshipped the calf even after seeing all the Ayat (Signs) and miracles. Why? Because the society that they grew up in had huge scars on them. The generation that grew up in Egypt had to be rid of, and that could be one of the 'illah (reasons) or hikmah (wisdoms) behind not allowing them the Holy Land for 40 years. It was those that grew up under the Tasfiyah wa Tarbiyyah (purification and education) of Musa and Harun عليهما السلام, those who were free from egyptian values, like Yusha who is the boy that follows Musa عليه السلام to meet Al-Khidr in Surah Al-Kahf. It was under his leadership that the Bani Israa'il conquered Palestine and not under those that grew up in Egypt. Very important to grasp this. Because living in the west has similar effects. And it seems that you're becoming like those who were scarred in Egypt. Are you those scarred by the west? And these sufis, will turn you into those that grew up in Egypt if you do not follow the understanding of the Salaf of this Ummah. Allah سبحانه وتعالى said, أَمْ لَكُمْ كِتَابٌ فِيهِ تَدْرُسُونَ Or have you a Book wherein you learn, إِنَّ لَكُمْ فِيهِ لَمَا تَخَيَّرُونَ That you shall therein have all that you choose?

[@jameschoice3983]

No, this is not "a fact" First of it: nobody was ever created. Species developed. What you are talking about, is the (lack of) knowledge of some 600 yrs mimimum ago. Secondly: Yes, there are mainly two sexes - which are more or less pronounced. This depends on the hormonal household mostly but on other factors as well. There are men, with a lot of female characteristics and vice versa. Obviously you don´t even know the meaning of the term "fact". But what is even more despisable, that the world seems to be full of people, who feel the strong need to restrict, harrass and oppress others. Those people, who don´t feel neither like the one nor like the other sex, usually do not do anyone harm. You and the likes are simply to weak to let others live like they prefer, like they feel and whom they find attracting. Without given Norms, you are naked- and therefore others must be oppressed. People with a mind, a soul, a heart- just like you. You´d better critisize those vast numbers of violent, criminal self-acclaimed "well-guided" muslims, that are responsible for the highest rates of violence related crime in Europe: people with muslim background. And the world knows, that msulims tend to be violent, to rape, to slaughter (they often use the term when they think of Kuffars...) to stone or simply to kill each other driven by their eagerness and zeal. Or the widespread corruption in muslim countries. They are world champions. But a Muslim prefers to attack his indoctrinated "enemies" in the west, before hinting on the desasters in Libya, Turkey and Pakistan - which cost hundreds of thousands of lives through corrupt clerks. Without this dirty bakshish you are a second class person in most of the muslim coutries. Where there is Islam, there is backwardedness, violence and injustice. @@adilshekh8879

I hope you repent and delete those videos if you haven't already done so. Whatever feelings are only that and do not act upon them and expose what Allah has hidden them from the people. Allah has given you this test because he knows you can succeed as a muslim. You say about behaviors as I assume they are habits. One way to stop them is to replace them with good habits. Learn and work on projects that you like and be productive. Another is remove and plan to avoid triggers and you'll gradually forget the bad ones. Dont worry about the bad and judging company and leave them. Once you occupy yourself with doing good and seek knowledge, actual good friends will come insha Allah. I speak from experience and do have similar tendencies myself. You are not alone and there are many with similar tests.

Islam is a religion where we should constantly be studying the universe and develop the religion around principles. The way we have defined "binary" is based on sexual organs when we could be classifying it all wrong - binary could be a state of mind, something that Allah has given us in our experience and not our genitals. We have selected a simple answer to an obviously complicated question - we then praise simple people for forcing these simple answers and some even kill in the name of these simple answers. We're not worthy of Allah.
