Thanks everyone for your useful comments.

Just to close of this thread - I did meet with him (my potential son-in-law) last weekend for dinner at a restaurant. He is a nice man and also a strong believer in Islam - attends mosque and prays when he can. He tried to explain that Allah was similar to brahman (the Hindu idea of a single God-head behind all existence). He also would like my daughter to convert to Islam (and his family will definitely insist on it - as it is, they are not very happy about this). My daughter does not practice anything right now, so she will probably agree if they insist on it. Though he is strong believer (just like I am in Hinduism), he is probably not that strict in practice - he did not check if the chicken was halal - it probably was not (is that common?).

I dont know sir. Not checking to see if chicken is halal is minor detail but might indicate that he is flexible.

Proceed but with caution. Good luck.
