Mahdai Lynn tells us that transgender in Islam has existed for centuries, dating to the time of the Sahaba.
The following is from the site Muslimgirl
Because the Trans community is already heavily marginalized, Lynn has a unique set of challenges ahead of her. We at MuslimGirl had the pleasure of talking to her about her goals in creating the Transgender Muslim Support Network and talking about the gifts and struggles that come with being Transgender and Muslim today
“When I was at my worst, I asked Allah (SWT) to keep me alive. When she listened to me, I figured it was probably a good idea to listen too.” I took the shahada a little bit after my 25th birthday. When I came to Islam, it sorta put me back in the closet. I was already seven years “post-transition” and living far away from where I grew up, so I decided it would be safest to keep my trans history quiet. LINK
Everyone is Gay including Allah
Mahdai Lynn supervises a site that caters to the growing Trans-Muslims community. Detailed answers are provided to an array of diverse issues. These issue span, intersex, bisexual, asexual. There are detailed answers on the best method to come out and make the announcement. In the section about relationships there is detailed advice about casual hook-ups
A safer middle ground for sex with strangers is going to sex parties. Register for a Fetlife account and search “events.“ Check if the party is 18+ or 21+ so you don’t go and get turned away. Usually the parties have different hooks (S&M or animal play or…) so make sure you find one that fits your desires. They’re completely anonymous. (I’ve never given out my last name and some people use fake first names too.)
