Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
What I understand from your post is that the husband wanted to revert the sikh women to Islam ONLY because he was in love with her. It was not like he felt that a woman is sincere in her search towards the truth, so he thought he should marry her in order to help her in overcoming the difficulties that she might face after becoming a Muslim. Right ?
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
Sana, if that sikh women truly wants to convert to Islam, she should do it with or without marrying your cousin's husband. She should not allow anyone to take her through a guilt trip. The fact of the matter as it seems to me is that she was only converting for marriage.
my cousin stopped her husband from converting a sikh woman to islaam because she didnt wanted to share her husband do you think she did the right thing because she feels guilty now it was a hard decision for her when her husband fell in love with this sikh woman.
If the woman's conversion would have been sincere, she would still have done it regardless of whether she was marrying that man or not.
In the days of Prophet Mohammed 
, many people converted to islam to save their lives or just becuase thier spouse converted and they did not want to be left out of the Nikah, and as far as I know, that was OK.
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
TLK, you have probably not read the history behind this thread.
It is clear that the lady was not converting for salvation or even for purpose of validation of marriage. Of course if the guy had ended up marrying her and she did convert, we'd have one new muslim convert and a broken family.
But of course who are we to judge anyone's niyah. Maybe she would have proved to be the next aalima on the block.
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
Ok... this whole thing is quite confusing. If her husband really wants to marry that woman, I think he will despite the fact she is muslim or sikh. Also instead of stopping someone from converting to Islam, maybe she needs to sit and talk with her husband. If the husband is adamant that he will marry that woman and it is not acceptable to her then she needs to get out of that relationship. Anyway, I don't think it is right to stop anyone from converting to save yourself. Again, there is a problem, if the guy while having a wife is thinking of marrying another women. She should have a serious talk with her husband.
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
Lucy is right.
What i wanna know is how did this woman "stop" her husband from getting that sikhni converted? She stopped him physically? Thru a dialogue/discussion? Well if its later, then why cant she stop her husband from having an extra marital affair with that chick?
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
Well Allah knows the best answer but to me its very much clear that the sikh girl was converting just for the sake of the guy, not for the sake of Allah or the sake of the truth. so even if she'd convert to islam she would never be a good muslim cuz if someone can forget their loyalty to their religion just cuz of a guy/girl, they can never be sincere to anything in the world.
and if the sikhni was converting just to steal her husband then i think any woman would stop her.
and yeah ur cousin should really have a talk with her hubby cuz thinking of another women after having one is really sick, either ur cousin has failed to give him love and care or her hubby is a *****. either way she should talk to him to sort out things cuz she has very limited number of choices here.
Re: stopped someone to convert to islaam
I know a case where the girl converted for the sake of the guy, then later learned of the religion, became a muslimah, and dumped the guy for going out with her in the first place since its against Islam.
lol

well she stopped him by making him choose between her and the sikhni even though he wanted to have both of them and equal rights as stated in islaam but my cousin wanted to end her marriage over this so he chose her and he swore he left the sikhni but my cousin knows he still talks to her on the phone but she got no proof but she doesnt care because the sikhni is in india at the moment.
funny 
Your cousin should not feel guilty because she just saved her husband from turning mad 
Btw, i commend that husband guy for his noble khawakhish nevertheless :k:

Tablighi Jamat sure can use this guy.
bit of unconventional way of tabligh, but he proved it works.
Never heard of that… may be you can give us some details so we learn something that we are not aware of…
I know the context and background of one ayah though … which is often quoted out of context by many of us these days… and often on GS as well…!
Remember: La ikhraahaa Fid Deen (There is no compulsion in Islam) right after Ayat-ul-Kursi in surah baqarah?
A companion migrated to madinah because he was attracted to one of the converted sahaabiya 
who had migrated earlier… so the ayah was revealed that migration was supposed to be for the sake of Allah and not for other people… so do not force yourself on the hardship of this world in the name of Islam… There is no compulsion in Deen…
