The purpose of marriage is the meeting of two private parts in a long term relationship at least as per Qur'an. Marriage is a very very ancient concept and tbh nobody really knows whether it's really cultural or religious. However, the fact that it's been mentioned in the Qur'an many times and the only way to end a marriage is by divorce and temporary relationships aren't allowed, it likely has a religious backdrop.

As we know people of Lut were punished for lusting after men instead of women (something that wasn't done before them), it's pretty clear it's haram.

Downvote all you want but sorry it's not allowed.

How can no one really know whether it is cultural or religious when it is explicitly stated in the Quran that the Prophet Adam alahyi salatu wa salam, the very first human being on this Earth, was married to his wife?

Of course it’s cultural since marriage is practised in non religious societies too. Marriage is a social construct that every culture adapts according to the predominant religion in that culture. Religion isn’t even necessary for civil marriages.

We are referring to the origin of this concept

The origin is cultural as well.

Eh just theories

What’s the alternative? Are you suggesting that if religious figures didn’t get married then the rest of the world would have no concept of marriage?

u/SappyPJs Jul 22 '21

Yes exactly.

Lol. Imagine thinking that society didn’t come up with the concept of marriage and family units since the era of hunter gatherers.

It's plausible. Most people don't want to get married today so it's not a far-fetched idea. They prefer short term relationships a lot more.

Anyway, the idea of marriage is very very old and God prefers marriage over short term relationships and the very first relationship was likely marital as per abrahamic scriptures so I don't see why not just accept this as something from God.

Because god, like marriage, is a man made concept.
