OK...i told u before i nvr said MUSLIMS do it to produce children i said that in ISLAM sex was originally for producing children...im not evn talking about modren muslims
You didn't say that the purpose was "originally" for procreation, you said "Sex is pretty much for producing a child" which means sex=children. The purpose of sex is whatever the couple wants it to be. So their intention could be pleasure or their intention could be pregnancy.
It is encouraged in Islam (and practically everywhere else too) to have a healthy sex life with your spouse. Marriages fail because the lack of sex and Islam recognizes the sexual needs of humans.
Even if sex was originally for reproduction, there are other functions of it such as pleasure. It doesn't matter if we're talking about modern Muslims or the first Muslims because I bet sex between couples hasn't changed very much.
I also don't know if you're telling the OP that he's not a Muslim because he is unable to reproduce but there are people out there who are unable to reproduce because they're infertile so you would be implying (whether you know it or not) that they aren't Muslims either. Yeah, being gay is haraam and all that stuff we've read in this thread. But seriously, it's not our place to tell him he's going to hell because only Allah decides that.
OK...first of all ur right about the whole sex issue and thanx for correcting me....but i nvr said that if u cant reproduce then ur not muslim b/c i know many muslims that cant have children....and the whold thing about him goin to hell i nvr said that b/c i know i have no right or proof to say that he is going to go hell....u dont have to be muslim to go the heaven and u dont have to be straight to go to heaven...and the whole thing about marriages failing b/c or sex that might be the case sometimes but most of the time its b/c of lack of cooperation...( oh and btw i enjoyed the whole debate or arguement...thanx for the correction) 4laugh
