Awrah in Arabic refers to that which ought to be covered and not left exposed, for example the awrah of a man is navel to knee.

As for women, then their awrah is pretty much all their body, and so a woman is all awrah.

This was said by the Prophet ﷺ, The woman is awrah.
Therefore, the usage of the word عورت awrat for a woman comes directly from a statement of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and the Islamic concept of modesty and veiling.

It is interesting how Muslims in the West wish to preserve the Islamic concept of nikāh, only in the sense of making sure it happens between a man and a woman, whilst being unaware of and rejecting the basic fundamental rights of nikāh.

Seems LGBT is the only issue people see.
The rights being referred to.

Yes, there are other rights, however these are the most fundamental rights which define nikāh:

.:Qādī Yūsuf al-Nabhānī on the one who rejects tasarruf of Nabī ﷺ:.

“As for his ﷺ bestowing, preventing, fulfilling the needs of those who seek, relieving the difficulties of those in need, interceding for whom he wills, and that he enters into Paradise whom he wills,
then there is no doubt in it, and none rejects its correctness and occurrence except the one upon whose heart has accumulated ignorance and darkness, to the extent he is like the one who has recently embraced Islām.
Who doubts that he bestows by Allāh, prevents by Allāh, fulfils the needs of those who seek by Allāh, relieves the difficulties of those in need by Allāh, that he intercedes for whom he wills and that he enters into Paradise whom he wills by his interceding with Allāh.

.:Ottoman and Kurdish campaigns against Yazidis:.

Religious verdicts which permitted fighting and enslaving Yazidis were issued by Sunni Ottoman and Kurdish scholars, most seem to say that they are apostates and also give reasons such as the banditry done by Yazidis.
These were implemented by the Ottoman Sultans and Kurdish princes in the form of military campaigns.

This began in the reign of Sultan Sulaymān [1494-1566 CE], after the verdict of the Ottoman Shaykh al-Islām Abu’s Súūd al-Ímādī al-Ĥanafī [d. 982 AH / 1574 CE].
As for the text of the verdict, there is recording of a verdict which is attributed to him, though it is not known with certainty if this is indeed his verdict.

.:Alahazrat response to Qādiyānīs on Mīlād Sharīf:.

He was asked by a questioner from Shahpur, Panjāb:

“What do the scholars of the religion say regarding this matter, is recitation of poetry regarding the birth [mawlūd-khvānī] in the Masjid permissible or not? Image
As the Mirzāyī [Qādiyānīs] etc, object, they say that singing is prohibited inside the Masjid, it is prohibited as much as possible, since Mawlūd is also singing, then it is definitely impermissible.

Please clarify and be rewarded.”
Answer:

“A gathering of Mīlād Mubārak which is done with authentic narrations, the poetry which is recited is in accordance with the pure Sharīáh, and the man who recites with a beautiful voice is not an amrad [beardless youth], is permissible in the Masjid too,
