Does the Kooron / Quran / Koran / whatever forbid pornography?

Question

We all know you Muslims like to prevent your women from showing skin, but where does it say in the Kooron / Quran / Koran / whatever that lookin at pictures of naked women is wrong?

Answer 1

There probably is something in the Koran, but Mohammed still liked the ladies. After all, he married his son's fiancee.

Answer 2

"Surely God enjoins justice, kindness and the doing of good, to kith and kin; and He forbids all that is shameful, indecent, evil, rebellious and oppressive." InnaAllah Yamuru bil adel, wal ehsane, wa itae zil qurba; wa yanha anil fuhshae, wal munkari walbaghi; yaizukhum lallakum tazakkaroon. (Quran 16:90)

Pornography and the culture of pornography has all the three elements which God has prohibited in the above verse of the Quran: Fuhsha; Munkar, baghi. Here is a bit of terminology before we review the rest of the evidence prohibiting pornography.

Fuhsha:
According to the Al-Mawrid Arabic-English dictionary of Munir Baalbaki, Fuhash is obscenity, vulgarity, indecency, shamelessness and something that is dirty, filthy and foul. Al-Mawrid's English-Arabic dictionary translates pornographic as Fahish. The Hans Wehr Dictionary Of Modern Written Arabic adds monstrosity, abomination, vile deed and fornication to its meaning as well.

Fuhsha, translated as anything shameful, is a Quranic term which in the Quran and Hadith has been used widely for unIslamic sexual behavior. The Quran uses it as in the above verse (Quran 16:90). It is a set of vices that embraces the whole range of evil and shameful deeds. Scholars of the Quran have included every vice which is intrinsically of a highly reprehensible character into this category whether it be fornication, nudity, public foreplay as depicted in films and photos, pornography, hurling abuses and curse words, promiscuous mixing, or dresses designed to expose the body. At the highest level of Fuhsha, Allah has included adultery (Quran 17:32) and same gender sex (Quran 7:80; 27:54).

All scholars agree pornography is included in the term Fuhsha.

Answer 4

There's a text in the Quran that tells the believers not to look at any other woman being nude other than their wife and also tells the women to do the same.

Answer 5

There wasn't such a thing as pornography back in those times, but yes this is the verse that should tell us how to be with regards to the opposite sex that is not our husband/wife... btw I am woman.. I don't show any skin... I Cover everything except my eyes.. and I do that by choice.. just an fyi...

24:30 Tell the believing men to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity: [36] this will be most con­ducive to their purity ? [and,] verily, God is aware of all that they do.
24:31 And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity, and not to display their charms [in public] beyond what may [decently] be apparent thereof; [37] hence, let them draw their head-coverings over their bosoms. [38] And let them not display [more of] their charms to any but their husbands, or their fathers, or their husbands fathers, or their sons, or their husbands Sons, or their brothers, or their brothers sons, or their sisters sons, or their womenfolk, or those whom they rightfully possess, or such male attendants as are beyond all sexual desire, [39] or children that are as yet unaware of women?s nakedness; and let them not swing their legs [in walking] so as to draw attention to their hidden charms [40] And [always], O you believers - all of you - turn unto God in repentance, so that you might attain to a happy state! [41]

Answer 6

there was no photography at the time so one would go more by guiding principles

In the case of the New Testament and the sermon on the mount, Jesus condemned inappropriate sexual desires out side of marriage as a form of adultery... so in the case of Jesus it would be condemned

and in fact Jesus is considered a prophet in the Koran

Answer 7

I believe it is correctly spelled Qu'ran in English. I am no religious scholar, but I guess you can infer it from this translation of verse 24:31.

"24:31 And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity, and not to display their charms [in public] beyond what may [decently] be apparent thereof; [37] hence, let them draw their head-coverings over their bosoms. [38] And let them not display [more of] their charms to any but their husbands, or their fathers, or their husbands’ fathers, or their sons, or their husbands’ Sons, or their brothers, or their brothers’ sons, or their sisters’ sons, or their womenfolk, or those whom they rightfully possess, or such male attendants as are beyond all sexual desire, [39] or children that are as yet unaware of women’s nakedness; and let them not swing their legs [in walking] so as to draw attention to their hidden charms [40] And [always], O you believers - all of you - turn unto God in repentance, so that you might attain to a happy state! [41]"

So I guess that would prevent females from making pornography in the first place, since they could not display their nakedness to anyone besides their husbands, fathers, sons, relatives or caretakers. Just my guess, I'm agnostic myself.

Hope that helps.

Answer 8

I don't know the exact location but there's a verse or a hadith asking men or women to keep their eyes from seeing any indecencies . That includes porn.
What if they don't? Will u become a Muslim? lol

Answer 9

would one be happy to see that women from one's family making out and that many people in the world will watch it and enjoy themselves and lust for them.?

if u are a man u have the responsibility of protecting the women u love and respect, not make them an object of satisfaction for others eyes. doesnt the bible or any holy book teach u that. ? or is it that u have let ur holy book to rust somwhere?

now does the faith one follow or the holy book one reads teach to look at someone's woman or does it teach one to let his sister, mother, daughter and wife to be a pleasure for someone elses eyes.

so as to quran it forbids fornication and so it does forbid pornography too.

AL-ISRA 17:32
'and come not near unlawful sexual intercourse. verily it is fahishah (transgressing all limits) and every evil way'

24:31 And tell the believing women to lower their gaze and to be mindful of their chastity, and not to display their charms [in public] beyond what may [decently] be apparent thereof; [37] hence, let them draw their head-coverings over their bosoms. [38] And let them not display [more of] their charms to any but their husbands, or their fathers, or their husbands’ fathers, or their sons, or their husbands’ Sons, or their brothers, or their brothers’ sons, or their sisters’ sons, or their womenfolk, or those whom they rightfully possess, or such male attendants as are beyond all sexual desire, [39] or children that are as yet unaware of women’s nakedness; and let them not swing their legs [in walking] so as to draw attention to their hidden charms [40] And [always], O you believers - all of you - turn unto God in repentance, so that you might attain to a happy state! [41]"
