SEX AND THE UMMA
I can hear voices inside me saying, " writing on this topic is abominable". I was only encouraged after visiting MuslimsWakeUp blogsite which among other things, has an interesting column with the above title. The column, written by mostly women, talks about relationships between men and women within the Umma. Inside and outside wedlock. They are fictional stories that ring true in any society. But such relationships, as we all know, mostly border on hypocrisy, cheating and lust. Certainly not love. And I am talking about the Nigerian Muslim context.
