LQBTQ video creators on YouTube/ social mediaCategory: QuestionsAuthor "mehdi@al-khoei.org"LQBTQ video creators on YouTube/ social media
Nour asked 2 years ago

Asalamu Alikum wa rahmayullahi wa baraka oh,
I had a question that came to my mind the other day. I was watching a video on YouTube and it occurred to me that the video producer identifies as “gay”. I have come across some scholars and speakers mentioning that we should not be involving ourselves with them or supporting them which is understandable. But I wanted to know is it considered haram or makrooh of me to be watching their videos? since in a way i am supporting their channel ? Their videos don’t have anything to do with LQBTQ. The channel is not about spreading LGBTQ ideas or anything of the sort. they are more of life hack videos and fashion. I want to ask in precaution since I really enjoy their content but I don’t want to be doing something haram without being aware.
Jazakallah Khair
