^Prove it.

Islam does NOT permit any such thing. People often commit acts that not only go against the norms of the nature, but are in absolute collision with what the Faith teaches.

It is true that it's an ancient culture within every culture that existed for a very long time, perhaps longer than any known religion today. People of Lut are a prime example of this. They had a Prophet among them who would guide them and warn them, but they did not stop this culture. They were doomed.

If i say anymore this will become a religious debate. So lets leave it at that.

Culturally it maybe accepted, but put it on the scale of faith, you won't find the balance.
