Imam Daayiee Abdullah may feel this way but it doesn't mean that all muslims do. Some still believe that Gay people are wrong, some agree with Imam Daayiee Abdullah. He is saying that the Qur'an says that you should have a partner that is as comfortable to you as a cloak. The Islamic community is contradicting themselves because if your gay and your partner is perfect, then it shouldn't matter what sex they are.

Reflection

I learned that most religions have the same views on some topics. They may have branched off into their own opinions, but most started off with the same view. I chose this topic because I feel that everyone should be treated the same, especially gay people. I really like my final project is really good. I think my strengths are that I finished on time and that I incorporated an interesting topic into it. My weakness is that I need to work on my citation page.
