Re: I got thrown out of home …now what?
Wow, your mom seems very reasonable and understanding. Also, is your bf Pakistani or Indian? My best friend from high school married a hindu in Pakistan, neither of them converted. She, along with her parents, had moved back to Karachi and she met her now-husband at work, and he was Hindu. They went out for about 4 months before they approached the topic of shaadi with her parents. His family had their hang-ups since she was a Muslim but eventually even her parents came around! The guy was persistent and proved himself and eventually they had a small wedding with just their closest family and friends. They had a nikkah as well as a Hindu ceremony. The parents, although had their hang-ups, eventually came around due to them Pakistani. She’s happily living in KHI now, I think they have 2 kids. They don’t get flak within their community and the families get along just fine.
Her family wasn’t overtly religious but still practicing Muslims. His family were devout Hindus. What I found sweet was that neither side of the family asked the other person to convert. It does happen and it can be done.
This. Thank you.
