This is like the Ayah: أَتَأْتُونَ الذُّكْرَانَ مِنَ الْعَلَمِينَ - وَتَذَرُونَ مَا خَلَقَ لَكُمْ رَبُّكُمْ مِّنْ أَزْوَجِكُمْ بَلْ أَنتُمْ قَوْمٌ عَادُونَ (Go you in unto the males of mankind, and leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your wives Nay, you are a trespassing people!) (26:165-166) فَمَا كَانَ جَوَابَ قَوْمِهِ إِلاَّ أَن قَالُوا…
