Resumen
LUCENA ROMERO, Miguel Ángel. Homoerotic Casuistry Through the Poetical Anthology of al-Minhāŷī: Beardless and Downy-cheeked Youths. Estud. Asia Áfr. [online]. 2021, vol.56, n.2, pp.391-404. Epub 11-Jun-2021. ISSN 2448-654X. https://doi.org/10.24201/eaa.v56i2.2665.
The aim of this article is to analyze the homoerotic and pederastic casuistry found in classical Islam, through the poetic anthology Basṭ al-a‘ḏār ‘an ḥubb al-‘iḏār [Exposition of the pretexts on the love of locks of hair] of the jatib al-Minhāŷī (d. 1585). We begin with an introduction to the concept of homoeroticism in Islamic legality and present the main factors coined by Arab poets about the Platonic-homosexual passion for adolescent, beardless, and child-like boys.
