Re: Marrying a Convert
Barfee, it's one thing to have an inter-cultural marriage where both are Muslim adn remain Muslim. It's another thing to have a marriage where the girl is Muslim and the guy becomes Muslim and then goes back to whatever he was before. Yeah, it can work if the person genuinely converts ... but the fact is, it can go either way. I know people who married non-Muslims who went through the motions of converting to appease the parents and the 'community' but eventaully went back to their ways. Can you guys what their kids are? They certainly aren't Muslim. Some grew up to become Scientologists while others are Jehovas Witnesses. That is the type of thing you need to be prepared for .... fortunately, it doesn't happen in ever instance, but it certainly does happen. Just be ready for it to go either way, whatever your friend decides to do Sadz.
