Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Have any of you imagined what it must be like for the convertee even a willing one to change their religion and fit into another perhaps totally opposite outlook religion?
I agree with Niksik...you got to be on the same page...but in order to do that, the best way is to let time and nature take its course. If there is mutual love and respect and you believe in the goodness and power of your religion and you take the initiative to set a good example, then chances are that the spouse will follow that path. In the meantime, you need to be patient and have faith.
Conversion to a different religion or culture is easier when you assimilate into it slowly. You got to be living that way of life in order to start fitting in. The reqirement is change before we get married and that is where the difficulty may lie.
Niksik you are right there are may who have converted and are happy with their new beliefs, but there would be a lot more in that category if they were given the chance.
