What is the ruling on same-sex relations in Islam?
Short answer
Islam forbids same-sex acts, as the Quran recounts in the story of the people of Lut (7:80-81, 26:165-166). The ruling concerns the act. A person who struggles with their feelings should be treated with respect and mercy, repentance is open to everyone, and Muslims are not allowed to harm or insult anyone.

إِنَّكُمْ لَتَأْتُونَ ٱلرِّجَالَ شَهْوَةًۭ مِّن دُونِ ٱلنِّسَآءِ ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌۭ مُّسْرِفُونَ ﴿٨١﴾
"Lalle ne ku, haƙĩƙa kunã jẽ wa maza da sha'awa, baicin mata; Ã'a, kũ mutãne ne maɓarnata."
أَتَأْتُونَ ٱلذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ ﴿١٦٥﴾
"Shin kunã jẽ wa maza daga cikin talikai?"
وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُم مِّنْ أَزْوَٰجِكُم ۚ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ ﴿١٦٦﴾
"Kuma kunã barin abin da Ubangijinku Ya halitta muku daga mãtanku? Ã'a, ku mutãne ne mãsu ƙẽtarẽwa!"
