Bro no problem with the religion.. We are all praying to God. What matters is love.

MuhdG:
Alhamdulillah.

If she wants to practice islam allow her and support her if you truly love her.

She must have seen the light in Islam.. so why don't you ask her to show it to you.

i disagree

Yomieluv:
My fiance called me on thursday that she's converting to a moslem.

Yomieluv:
Actually,she was a muslim,but when the mum was going through financial difficulties while growing up,she and her brother went to stay at her uncle's place,who happens to practice christian,which made her practice the family's religion

Yomieluv:
She has gone back this year to her mum's place,because her place of industrial attachment is very close to her mum's place.

I thought she was joking,till she came to my side yesterday,and observed her prayer the muslim way.

Yomieluv:
I haven't made any comment,or taken any decision on that,but my fear is that

1. This is a lady I want t get married to in few months' time.

Yomieluv:
2. I practise christianity,and I know the importance of uniformity of religion to married couple,and children.

Yomieluv:
3. I have been worried since,am I over reacting to it?

Yomieluv:
4. Has anybody been in this situation before,whereby hubby,and wife practise different religion?

Yomieluv:
5. Should I be worried,or I insist on her to practice Christianity?

Yomieluv:
I need contribution,and advice on how to handle the difference in religion,if eventually we get married.

The adverse effect will nt really tell when u newly get married bt when u start bearing children dats when u will know dat u and ur wife need to be practicing the same religion. On friday, ur child will go to mosque, on sunday, he/she will go to church. Is dat d kind of life u want for ur children? U r the husband, make ur worry known to her,.if she refuses, dissolve d relationship. Is she d only girl in the world? Sheee no fine girls for d church wey u dey attend? Abegi. Religious differences is not good in marriage, it can lead to divorce. I'm sure u don't want to be jumping from one woman to another.
It is better to dissolve courtship dan to dissolve marriage.

YSA06:
If u truly love her, then sit her down and ask her to tell u her reason, from there she'll be able to show u some lights in islam.

Meanwhile from there too, u will be able to see the evil deeds her uncle did by make her and her bro to be going to church when he knew they were both born as muslims in the name of helping their helpless mum

Smiliar case is lying close beside me here.

tdayof:
must the children go to church and Mosque? They can easily follow their Dad

AltarBoy1:
Good advice. I wish our brothers from the north will have such tolerance. Cos na after her first convert dem go dey call for her head.

Hmmm.

Well, this is quite a delicate situation.
First of all I 'd advice you sit her down and talk things with her. Tell her you stand in all of this and tell her how you feel about her decision.
Expressively explain to her of the implication of her decision of your relationship

What she did was insensitive and silly. Why would she chose to make such decision at a time as crucial as this. It doesn't speak well of her judgment and decision making.

If after talking to her she still doesn't change her stance, the best thing for the both of you is to end the relationship.

Having separate religions as a husband and wife would not help in improving your relationship. If for anything, it would help in pulling both of you apart.
When you practise the same religion with your spouse, it creates understanding, trust and a stronger bond of friendship and companionship between the both of you.

I am not saying your marriage won't work if she chooses to practice islam and you choose to practice christianity, but there is a higher chance it would blossom if you both practiced the same religion.

PassingShot:

@ the emboldened, when has one's decision to practice his/her religion of choice become a silly thing? We're talking of an unmarried lady here and you're bringing your emotions into it.

wisefizz:


Them done start again.... This is hw they start religious war.... Who told u say there is no light in Christianity?

Mind u, I'm a muslim

oplbycar:



ISLAM NEVER PERMITS A MUSLIM LADY TO MARRY CHRISTAIN. ITS ONLY A MUSLIM GUY THAT IS PERMITTED TO MARRY A CHRISTAIN. SO WHICH LIGHT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT HERE?
