Yes, Muslims can be demisexual.

According to existing information, being demisexual is perfectly acceptable within the Islamic faith. However, the concept of marriage is mandated. This means that while a Muslim can identify as demisexual, they are expected to marry, even if they choose not to have sexual relations within the marriage or only pursue sexual relations after developing a deep emotional connection, aligning with the demisexual identity.

  • Acceptance: Islam allows for various sexual orientations, including demisexuality.
  • Marriage: Marriage is an important institution in Islam.
  • Flexibility: Muslims can marry and choose the nature of their relationship.
  • Example: A demisexual Muslim may marry and only engage in sexual activity after forming a deep emotional bond with their spouse.
