Re: Honesty is best policy

I found this forum on my husbands phone in his favorites…so I wanted to check it out. Allah forgive me. Here goes: I am a Gori my husband is Pakistani. Our 3 children are mixed (), specifically I’m American. I am a revert, HOWEVER, before I ever knew Islam I’ve learned that I’ve always been Muslim and didn’t realize it. I didn’t believe in Christianity the way it is today. So, I was never comfortable in church.
With that said. We have been married for 15 years now. Our oldest is 10 and younges is 4. I want to understand more.
Per the conversations, I’ve begged my husband to teach the children Punjabi/Urdu because if he doesn’t then it does with him and they can’t carry on the language. It’s not important that they marry desi but it is important they marry a Muslim. However, that aside my husband hasn’t taught any of them one letter of the alphabet. I’ve begged him to put the children in Islamic SUNDAY school at the very least…nope.
I wanted to get a perspective from other desi people…I do hope you all forgive me and will let me stay on here. I also want to learn Urdu/Punjabi myself…I would love to have a conversation with his mother one day.

Welcome to GS. Glad to have you here.
