[/size]
On the internet we find some articles claiming Islam permits sex with animals. Is this true? Let us analyse what authentic hadeeths say on the issue.
The simple answer is no. The Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) prohibited sex with animals in many narrations:
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Cursed is he who goes in unto (has sex with in other words in Arabic) an animal. [1]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Allah cursed who goes unto (has sex) with an animal. [2]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: If anyone has sexual intercourse with an animal, kill him and kill it along with him. [3]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever you find doing as the people of Lot did (i.e. homosexuality), kill the one who does it and the one to whom it is done, and if you find anyone having sexual intercourse with animal, kill him and kill the animal. [4]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever comes unto an animal, kill him and kill it with him. [5]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever comes unto an animal, kill him and kill it with him. [6]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever goes in unto (has sex with in other words in Arabic) an animal, kill him and kill the animal. [7]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever you find unto (having sex with) an animal, kill him and kill the animal with him. [8]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever you find unto (having sex with) an animal, kill him and kill the animal with him. [9]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever goes in unto (having sex with) an animal, kill him and kill the animal. [10]
The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Kill the doer and the one who is being done (i.e., two males having sodomy), and who goes in unto an animal. [11]
After reading these authentic hadeeths it becomes clear that having sex with animals is indeed prohibited within Islam. The same viewpoint is also held in the Bible:
'If a man has sexual relations with an animal, he is to be put to death, and you must kill the animal. [12]
If a woman approaches an animal to have sexual relations with it, kill both the woman and the animal. They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads [13]
