Hi humans! Omar here. Today we're taking things in a little different direction from our normal videos. Both Matt and I are going to be sharing our coming out stories with you this week & next. Growing up in a strict Muslim household and coming to terms with my sexuality is something that I know so many of you have dealt with or are currently dealing with. I hope that my story can give you some hope & inspiration, where you might see none ❤
xoxo, Omar

As a British South Asian, I remember occasional rumours of people who had taken their own lives and how this was swept under the carpet by families and communities. I always suspected this was because they had been forced to live double lives which they could see no end to, and no way out of. This 10 minute video will give young Asian LGBTQ+ so much strength and hope. Thank you 🌈

@adityapal8367 5 жыл бұрын

The double life which omar mentioned is so relatable , i feel so claustrophobic , because i cannot represent myself who i am properly to people , but i cant fully express it too because i am too scared what if the other person is homophobic or what if i was socially excluded everywhere ,

Watched Matt's video too!! Love both of your stories! Coming from very religious backgrounds just adds a whole extra layer in the coming out process in an already sometimes volatile environment. I have a very similar story, only I came out later at 38 and had married a woman and had 3 children by this time. I couldn't handle the pressure of knowing I was 100% gay. I did what was "expected" of me from my family and my religious community and in the process affected the lives of my 3 beautiful children and now ex wife. It was some very dark days! But thanks for sharing your story. It's so encouraging to hear others tell their story and so important for younger people who don't have any other outlet! Peace and love to you and Matt!

Dear Amy, if Hawa ( Eve) was created 1st to pair with another Hawa (Eve) at the beginning of time, you wont be having friends with opposite gender. Because you , me and the rest of human beings from the past and present didnt even exist in this world at the first place. Your issue is basically you have not learnt to understand the nafsu in you and in each of human beings. Modern days have mixed understanding of what is love, what is lust, what is desire what is need and modern people are at lost. Dont be one. Nothing comes easy if you want to taste beauty. Having difficulties means you are on a right track to become human. Patience is virtue and you will learn something from this. Keep finding truth of why you were born in this world. Remember that you have your heart in you. Listen!

1. Fine 2. Allah would never make a person that transgresses far like this. I deny the claim that he does this for a test too, that would destroy the purpose of judgment day anyway. 3. ove definitely is love, but that is limited in Islam to a man and a woman, nothing else. Yeah more like reasons why Islam should not be compatible with the lgbtq.

When I was 12-13 and started having attraction to men, I didn't know the concept of "being gay". I didn't know a man could romantically love another man. So if I was being attracted to men and in all my life I learned that women are attracted to men, then my conclusion at the time was that I too was a woman. Then I read a lot online and after a few months I understood that a man can love another man, and that makes him a homosexual, which is my case.

He isn't Muslim he left that fictitious religion, and what do you mean by Muslim and gay there are millions of gays among Muslims they are just inside the closest, being gay isn't a choice it's natural and scientifically proven but Alas!! Muslims believe in man fiction rather than present evidence. That's why developed Western nations support them. but Muslims are busy trying to deny the fact that a certain amount of people born that way. and Muslim nations to have millions of gays but they are inside the closet.

@@totallyapng7315 Why do Muslims keep lying about how Islam is this beautiful religion for gay people it's not. It's a homophobic religion that kills gay men and women in multiple Islamic countries. We all know how Muslims feel about it. I dare you to go to mecca( Saudi Arabia) and bring a pride flag or got to any masjid and bring a pride flag and tell us how loving " Islam is of gay people" because its not

@cometestify because they're seen as a fetish to straight men. While they don't treat gay men like that, cuz they're scared that they're going to be sexualised and treated the same way they treat women.

@lavarnya 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! because you're still young the best thing to do for your safety is to not come out yet. I know it's hard, i'm going through it as well, but you need to wait until you're in a safe environment so when you do have the chance to come out, you won't be physically hurt. Just remember that being gay is completely fine and normal and it's part of who yous re. If your parents don't accept you, try not to take it too hard because by that time you'll have people around you that'll support you. hold on kid, you're going to be just fine.

@safeenameer8687 3 жыл бұрын

There's no place in Islam for homosexuality. You are either Muslim or a practicing homosexual. But Islam is all about peace and respect towards people of all faith and beliefs. So we do respect your choices. But nothing till the end of time will ever change Islam's perspective toward homosexuality. No quote from the quran or prophet muhammads saying can be molded to support lgbtq..never!
