Converting Out Of Love? by emofine2(f): 2:06pm On Feb 14, 2012 |
People convert for a myriad of reasons. Some noble reasons, some not. Some are forced, others voluntary choose their faith. Some convert out of fear, some out of love. There was a colleague of mine, whose father met her Muslim mother whilst he was practising Christianity. Today he is a “Muslim”. He converted so it would be possible to be with the woman he loved. Since he never made the conscious decision to come to Islam because he felt a burning desire to draw near to Allah or was naturally inspired by the principles of the faith – is such a person’s conviction legit? Is such conviction even real? Although ones conviction could grow does this particular converted populace even have faith in their adopted religion? |

Dats nt gud enough he should know and understand the thing he is about to do or have because Islam is not just a religion it's a way of life |

Why should I have to convert to another religion just because of love whoever I love (and whoever loves me) should accept me the way i am. It works both ways, haven't you heard of the saying that "love conquers all?" |

^^^ Some people are bound by religious duties or perhaps may love their God more than their significant other I guess |

so emofine, when are you going to revert? Or should i have to propose before you come to Islam? Listen, any which way God soften a heart is good for me. The man above must have some good in his heart for him to realize a good woman when he saw her. He knew the woman will not walk into what he had. So he came what is light from darkness. I want you to do the same. Voluntarily. A person who will end up in Paradise will do so even if he/she is just an arm length away from hell. He/she will do things of paradise as last deeds. The reverse is for the person heading to hell, even if he is outwardly doing things of paradise. He/she will do things of hell as his/her last set of deeds. He/she will leave light and enter into darkness. |
