Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
I'm all for it.
My parents wouldn't mind if the guy is Paki or any other race... but he has to be from a Muslim family. If someone converts to Islam for Islam, Mom agrees, but she doesn't agree with someone converting to Islam just for the sake of marriage to be valid. shrugs
Classic trap. They know the chances of that happening and then him dating their daughter are pretty much nil.

You lost that a long time ago :no:
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
Would I consider a possibility of interracial marriage? Yes I would. I dated couple of girls one was Greece-Syrian and another one Pakistani-Egyptian. Both of them beautiful ladies and wouldn't have minded if our relationship were to take next step.
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
I personally like the individual and not the "race" they belong to. I live in a western country - and sure there are Pakistani's here - but the chances of me marrying a non-Pakistani is pretty high up there.
I'm going to be the first to marry outside my race [unless my younger sister get's married before me to a guy of another race] and I can't wait to see how the family back home is going to react. It is going to be awesome. The funny thing is that my dad didn't even consider his children getting married outside his caste [unless it's a higher one - never one below] let alone race. Then I broke the news to him: The chances of me marrying within my race is pretty slim. He would be the up-tightest regarding this issue but my mom loosened him up. My mom thinks that as long as the guy converts then race doesn't matter. My dad still made jokes like how I will bring home a black guy saying "hey man, hey man, hey man" doing a gangster walk and trying to feel up my mom's bum [he was joking around]. I find it really sad how it's always the black person that are picked on by most Asian families. It irks me when someone stereotypes a whole race like that.
I'm all up for marriages where two people who love each other get married. And if that means interracial/interfaith marriages then I'm giving it a triple thumbs up :) !
How about you guys? How would your families react? Would you get an interracial marriage done?
What is your background? Are you a Muslim, or a non Muslim?
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?

Every Pakistani and Pakistani Western raised woman I know who married an Arab eventually divorced.

thats cuz Arab men rarely only stick to one wife in their lifetime...lol good looking but unfaithful
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
^ that's not true in my case. Have a cousin who married an Arab and they're doing good. My husband has three Arab BILs through his cousins too. My families stance is also , as long as they respect Islam and try/do or at least respect that you will continue to practice Islam. It's worked out. One of my cousins married a white non-Muslim guy and he's amazing, more muslim than any of us, doesn't drink or anything like that either, just very respectful and accommodating to his wife's culture and family needs. Now that I've written it out I didn't realize I've had this many inter racial marriages in my fam because we don't notice it anymore because everyone's marriages are doing so well and mashallah se everyone is flexible. It's funny now that I think about it, one of my cousins whose in a Sunni/shia relationship has the most confusion about how kids will be raised. mostly because of inlaws being a factor. And my entire family has only opened up to it because even as religious as all the parents are, no one would force any of their kids to marry somebody they don't want too. Keep in mind, every cousin of mine who did end up marrying outside had to struggle a lot in order to have the parents really be okay with it. It's a huge deal in the beginning and then years pass, and it settles better.
i personally have always known that I would only be satisfied in a relationship with a Pakistani Muslim. Never was the dating type but once had an ahmadi paki friend who showed his interest in me but as soon as I started to learn from him about his beliefs, I couldn't get passed it and how different it was even tho besides his religion, everything was very much the same. That's when I knew I only wanted a Pakistani Muslim. Didnt have the drive or desire to convince someone that they had to be Muslim in order to marry me.
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
just curious- those who are biracial and would consider marrying other races- what is your mix or preference?
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
I think Arab women are amazing but yeah they’re guys are WAY too controllign and two faced. ALL OF MY ARAB friends palis, lebs, moroccans ALWAYS and are the ONLY men I know who marry non-Muslimas. That’s insane. Yet all there sisters are at home in hijab.
Perosnally I think this is a non-issue in the American Pakistani community. As long as the person is of the same faith, they could care less. Unlike in Europe’s Pakistani communities, Our Pakistani identity is seocndary to our Muslim identity because we have seen what happened to 3rd 4th generatoin Arabs, Albanians, Jews who left their faith…their communities are really broken, different sects and interfaith kids have no idea of their identity.
My cousin is half Korean, looks it too and married a Pakistani imam’s daughter. Not a single question asked no problems.
For all the complaining Pakistani women do about Pakistani men they really don’t realize the kind of respect htey have. I also noticed that a lot of Arabs are into polygamy. A hijabi friend of my sisters had to deal with it, and it is ‘accepted’ that a guy could go out and see another woman.
Polygamy in a Pakistani famil yis a family occasion where all the men of the woman’s side come and beat their brother/son in laws ass for asking for a second wife :halo:

Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
amazing huh polgamy isn’t a big thing in middle eastern only the very rich saudi and uae do it, plus they can only do it if the first wife agrees or else its doesn’t count and is like cheating.
Re: Interracial marriage - would/did you do it?
We found out this week a friend of my daughter's, Pakistani married to a Palestinian divorced after three years of marriage.
I have cousins who are Pakistani married to Moroccan and Yemeni women. They have the most beautiful children, (seriously). My cousins wives say 'Pakistani men are the best, our own men treat us like **** ".

A man does not need to get permission from his 1st wife in order to marry again. it would be bloody nice if he did, but it is not a prerequisite.

my aunt lives in uae and shes a second wife and the first wife allowed it. When i asked she says most 1st wives do it cause they dont see anything wrong with it especially for some reason women in uae and saudi only like few children whilst the men like lots of children and a big family. It true some dont but thats the Very very minority
