i need some serious facts on this matter please.
iam a muslim girl who has fallen for a non muslim. we both have genuine feelings for each other and it is not sumthing come out of physical attraction. as we had only working relationship on the phone which made us realise there was too much in common and we got on to well. It has been over a year since i have known him and he is aware that it is not possible for me to have any kind of relationship untill he is a muslim and we are married…which is why he is wanting to convert.
Would it be right in Islam for me to marry him once he is a muslim?
Even as muslims none of us are perfect and as long as we all try our best… it is upto to Allah to guide us and to forgive our sins.
If this person accepts Islam for you, and not for God, then you are fooling yourselves.
To answer the question, I've known many Muslim women who have married (and indeed, had preference for) converts. Mind you, they converted prior to meeting their spouse..
yes sister that is the case..amongst so many other issues, like he is gonna find hard to give up drinking. its not fair to ask so much of him but he wants this as much as me if not more
Hi,
I am in the curious position of being the topic of a ‘blog’, and would be excited if it wasn’t so important! borrowed aliyans password.
I am a typical english reared man, I believe i have a good soul, but not a religious background. However, I believe in god, I just dont think i have ever realised how much you think about god and pray to god every day without realizing it until i met Alyan. I met her well over a year ago. I have been studying Islam for a couple of months, and I will convert for the right reasons… In my opinion they envelope the idea of love with my baby. It will still be hard for me to convert her family though, i will always be her Gora man
Aliyan is going through a hard time, because we may be blocked by her parents, and family, who seem to emotionally blackmail her. Maybe we BOTH need to put our trust in allah. I do hope they ( god and Aliyan ) can forgive my weakness for wine though…
Well… If someone is converting his/her religion just to get merried to a muslim …then the person should think twice about it.But If someone has converted with his own will without any condition , then there is no harm to marry him. (In my opinion)
Welcome. One you embrace islam conciously, there is no turning back as the rule says. Converting to Islam must not be taken lightly. That's the point. Read/learn about it from other authentic sources.
I am. I tried to jump in at the deep end, but that didnt work, information overload. I am reading several books at present, all very good. I started with Islam for dummies by Sheik Muhammad Sarwar, which was a good start point... now into the more detailed teachings.
This feels like a very personal , and will take some considerable time. Not taking it lightly.
Love the idea of ramadan, espescially in this modern fast paced world where everything is easily accessible.
I asked the same question last year for David who wanted to convert and marry a Muslim girl, like F.F. her concern was " …. due to the fact that he is only converting to Islam to marry and not for the religion itself". David took his time, decided on his own that he likes the religion and converted. They are happily married now. (David is English and the girls is Cape mal’ay . Just for the info.)
