My guest today is Mohammad Mertaban, a proud, publicly out, queer Muslim man. He’s a physician, a father, and a devoutly religious person who always knew he was gay but followed the path laid out by his community’s interpretation of his faith. He was married for 8 years, and only came out in his mid-30s. And, because of his standing in the community, and how he struggled, he made the decision to come out publicly. You can find him on Instagram @mothegayarab.
In this episode, Part I, we talk about his early life, what led him to get married, and how he ultimately was able to reconcile his faith and his queerness.
This episode is coming out at a particularly fraught moment for LGBTQ folks-- where we are being targeted politically. I talk about what has been going on for queer Muslims at the top of the episode. The Queer Muslim Solidarity network, in Instagram as @qmsolidaritynet, is an excellent resource.
