This article examines LGBT Muslim erasure by hegemonic Islamic and homonormative ideologies and how those involved in nonconformist Muslim groups queer those ideologies in order to forge narratives of belonging. I analyze the work of ‘queering’ Muslim voices among LGBT Muslims and allies involved in a multisited community of nonconformist Muslim face‐to‐face and online groups, and what such queering explains about the relationship among erasure, voice, ideological disjuncture, and resistance. Through analysis of individual and group conversations alongside ethnographic observations, I argue that LGBT Muslims and allies strategically index queerness and Muslimness as a challenge to marginalizing discourses and to create ‘safe’ spaces that also benefit other Muslims on the margins. Narratives of both LGBT Muslim marginalization and its strategic disruption as well as nonconformist group interactions are used to illustrate how the queering of Muslim discourse creates “indexical disjuncture” to make space for both LGBT Muslims and other nonconformist Muslims. I conclude by considering how providing evidence of language’s role in the process of ‘queering’ contributes to ongoing conversations in queer theory.

以“奎尔之声”成为穆斯林：进步的穆斯林社区的LGBT成员的谈话中的索引分离

本文探讨了霸权的伊斯兰和同规范的意识形态对LGBT穆斯林的抹杀，以及那些涉入不循规蹈矩的穆斯林团体的人们如何质疑这些意识形态，以塑造归属感。我分析了LGBT穆斯林和参与不信教穆斯林面对面和在线群体的多站点社区的同盟中的“查询”穆斯林声音的工作，以及这种查询解释了擦除，声音，意识形态分裂和抵抗之间的关系。通过对个人和群体对话的分析以及人种学的观察，我认为LGBT穆斯林和盟友在战略上将酷儿和穆斯林指数化为对边缘化话语的挑战，并创造了“安全”的空间，这也使其他穆斯林在边际上受益。LGBT穆斯林边缘化及其战略破坏以及非循规蹈矩的群体互动的叙述都被用来说明对穆斯林话语的质疑如何产生“指数脱节”，从而为LGBT穆斯林和其他非循规蹈矩的穆斯林腾出空间。在结束之前，我考虑了提供语言在“酷儿”过程中的作用的证据如何有助于酷儿理论中正在进行的对话。
