Does the Qur'an prohibit same-sex marriage?

No. However, the Qur'an actively prohibits homosexual behavior by associating it with the people of Sodom and Gommorah who were righteously destroyed (see Qur'an 7:80-84). Therefore, while same-sex marriage is not explicitly prohibited, homosexual acts are prohibited. If homosexual acts are prohibited, then necessarily any recognition of sacredness for those homosexual acts (like marriage) is wholly out of the question.
