Imam W. D. Mohammed(ra) "Our Human Capital" NY '94

As Muslims we are to see sex in its social role.  All intelligent societies wish that their citizens would first see and respect sex in the social role.

If we keep it in its social role we won’t become the subjects of wild sex appetites; if we lose that appreciation for the function of sex in its social role then we can destroy the whole society.

G'd created us and sex for the purpose of having human beings regenerated, surviving for the purpose of having family formed and social life established.

It is the first binding material of male and female. It's not the act itself that makes for the beautiful relationship but it is what that relationship sends to our minds, and hearts as a message.
