ripo: Hmmm... I am seeing dis from a different angle. I think the Op is in a very big trouble. She needs serious fasting and prayer 2 break her from dis 'bondage'. I understand dat some muslim peeps use some fetish means (ofcourse, gud muslims dont encourage dis) to tie down gals of their choice. Such a gal will not see anytin gud in other mean while stil under d influence. The spell naturally breaks after some yrs, but d damage might have been done. Op, if u can be in ur senses, this is d time u need 2 be close 2 God. (Btw, u never told us if both of u are of same tribes, sharing dsame culture eg Yoruba-Yoruba. Dat could mean another tin entirely. Just saying o) This person is an illetrate who unfortunately can read and write and even operate the computer. Please if you know any voodoo that can tie people down please give me, I want to tie Sanusi Lamido down so that I can empty CBN vault. NONSENSICAL |

My Dear girl, go for your mind. I can honestly tell you that Marrying an Understanding and Genuine Muslim is the best thing that can happen to you and vice versa too. Don't let anybody deceive you with religious differences. If he is your kind of man, go for it. FYI, am a Practising Muslim currently engaged to A Catholic Christian. I left a Muslim lady for her and she is the best thing to happen to me i swear. Use your brain. Think of Pastors that died and several illegal wives surfaced. Think of Muslim clerics that died and more than four wives attested to having a child for him. Religion does not corrupt love if you use your brains 2 Likes |

If u tuelly know Jesus, u will dislike that kind of forbidden relationship. Escape for ur dear life. Meanwhile get born again and d Light of the glorious gospel will flood ur heart with peace in Jesus name. If u stubbornly go ahead to marry a muslim in about 10yrs time when u are supposed to be counting ur blessings in marriage, ur muslim in laws will pressurize their son to take a second wife and a third and then a fourth wife. I have seen it happen recently. foliks: I am a christian lady dating a Muslim guy for about a year now,the guy has been everything a woman can ever ask for in a man. Before I met him I dated my first boyfriend for 5yrs but those years were the saddest years of my life and each time I try to leave,he comes back begging and another relationship. |

Be not unequally yoked... There will be pressure on the Man to convert you to Islam... Do you really wanna lose your Christian faith? Not enjoy worship/praise/family altars with your husband? Don't do it dear... If he aint a christian, I dont see it ending well |

I dont no what's the problem of Nigerians. Why are you carried away by religion? If you're a christian today, is because you were born one. Same applied to the muslims. I believe what we should be more concern with is the person you're interacting with and not the religion. Before Islam and Christianity, we no the marry for this country?

wazobia_for_u: So many people have not learn from others mistake, there are so many people that are living in sadness now because they left what MARRIAGE is for, (LOVE) for another thing ( Money,Fame,Ethnic,Religion,Color) if you ever marry because of this then you are having your marriage attach to something that can not hold you back when fall, is only LOVE that can hold you back. gbam! I love this, if only other people could see things indifferently, the world would be such a better place. Although, I'm a Muslim, I believe in religion equality and right to worship and belong to any religious group you want. Muslims do theirs, Christian do theirs but nowadays all we have is religious abuse. Some people don't even understand their religion yet they insult other people's religion. Look at most of all these people saying jargons, you'll be surprised that most of the Christians amongst them haven't entered a church this year (some have even forgotten the way to their church) and the Muslims...smh (i laugh in HD), I bet most of them can't even perform abolution. NB: before una start to dem yab me, I'm not sure if the spelling of abolution (or is it abulution) is correct. So if it is incorrect, just correct me, no sweat |

Tonnes of Bull crap! If you love him enough just be ready to fukcing let go and convert to Islam. I don't know why people usually like to complicate issues with these questions. It’s funny that in today’s tribal Nigeria, a **whatever** lady marries a muslim and expects their children to be **not muslim**? Just worship god anyhow. What I'm saying is simple. If you love him be ready to accept the pressure from everywhere because that's how they are so don't complain. why would you even want to still be a christian in his home and bring about division. The religion should not matter, become hajia today, enjoy ur mullah and bask in the 'religion of peace'. If the relationship goes sour, then well, you are not the first.... ...neither would you be the last to shed lonely & quiet tears of sorrow in the deep of the dark.

Evil certainly has to be condemned. Not to judge doesn't mean you won't condemn evil. Rom2;1 Do you, my friend, pass judgment on others? You have no excuse at all, whoever you are. For when you judge others and do the same thing they do, you condemn yourself." In another place Jesus said first remove the peck in your eyes before you see the log of wood in others. He never said don't remove that peck. What the bible is preaching against is hypocrisy. You cannot condemn when you do the same thing. Back to your question am certain you've received many advices/warnings from both sides. Some Christians here think it's ok others think it's not. Virtually all the muslims here think it's alright. But what if the tables is turned around and it's muslim sister wanting to marry a Christian what would be their advice? No i guess given that their own Quran prohibit that kind of union. You should checkout this thread it make an interesting reading www.nairaland.com/1061098/non-muslims-vs-muslims-debate-work As for me speaking from the bible perspective i don't think it a great idea. We've a lots Christian/Muslim marriages out there faring better than C/C and M/M ones for now. A lot tough decisions are gonna have to be, a lot sacrifices too. How you two will tolerate the dos and don'ts of both religion? Are you okay with your kids being a muslim? Would he want them to be a Christian? Hope you two will talk this kinda of things out before getting into it. Don't think it doesn't matter it does a lot. See these stories from some ladies that have been in the type situation you're trying to put yourself into.

I don't think religion has got anything to do with who u'll date or marry. Those that are talking about someone being an unbeliever are not real. I've yet to see a disastrous marriage caused by differences in faith. Talk to your aunty & let her know u care for your muslim boyfriend. Tell her u're old enough to make decisions for yourself. Also discuss religion issue with your muslim boyfriend if u have any concern regarding faith. What u need in a relationship is love, patience, sacrifice & a whole lot of endurance. Marriage isn't a stroll in the park. |

@ OP: I'd not advice you to marry a muslim. There will be issues in future. My late lawyer was a muslim n forbade his wife n children from going to church while He was alive. Albeit,He was a very nice & good man. My last fiancee was a muslim & when I introduced her to my parents as my potential wife,they were not happy. In short,it strained d relationship btw me n my dad. My dad was once a muslim who later converted to Christianity. I loved my fiancee but a point came when we couldn't agree on certain things that had to do with religion. If you guys cant share same views on spirituality,it's gonna be tough. There are things that ur muslim partner would do,that you cant tolerate & vice versa. Marriage is not a good ideafor you guys but if you think you can weather the storm,then it's ur call to make. |

My honest advice is to know the Differences Between Muhammad and Jesus Mohamed-claimed he was not sure of heaven.Thus u alway say -may peace be unto him.pbuh Jesus-Is in heaven. Moslems believe he is the only one who has so far made heaven Muhammad..forced his adopted son(Zaid Ibn Harithah) to unwillingly divorce his beautifull new wife Zaynab for him to marry. Surah 33:37-50. King david fail into a similar temptation with another mans wife but Jehovah rebuked him Jesus..tought principles of faithfullness and good marriage. Mohamed./Allah--.authorised Mutah- a form of prostitution Surah 4:24 ,surah 5:87 Jesus--never Mohamed/Allah--Permits husbands to beat their wives for misbehaviour.Surah 4:34 Jesus--never did Mohamed--Allah claimed to lead astray to hell.Surah 16:93, 13:27b, 25:8-9, 42:44,surah74:31 Jesus- Jehovah never does that.His words never changes Mohamed--Allah says all black people must go to hell and that he hates the blackman.Surah 70:21,surah 17:100, (Mishkat vol III,page 117) Jesus--promised those who believe in Jehovah haven sent him as a sacrifice to cleanse the sin of Adam that we inherited,and live righteously as christians,shall gain salvation and make heaven Mohamed-said there is no moslem that shall not go to hell .Surah 19:71-72. After hundreds of thousands of years in hell Allah will then look at the ZEBIBA(sign of prostration) and then poor water of life on their skeletons to regain flesh b4 meeting the virgin. What a long route if its true.But this false hood. The bible truth is that no one that goes to hell comes out.Mohamed said that only 700000 of his followers will enter paradise. Mohamed.. Said Allah hates those who don't accept Islam. (Qur'an 30:4, 3:32, 22:38) Jesus. Said God loves everyone. (John 3:16) Mohamed "I have been commanded to fight against people till they testify that there is no god but Allah, and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah" (Muslim 1:33) Jesus.

"If then anyone transgresses the prohibition against you, Transgress ye likewise against him" (Qur'an 2:194) Jesus. "If someone strikes you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also." (Matthew 5:39) Mohamed. Jihad in the way of Allah elevates one's position in Paradise by a hundred fold. (Muslim 4645) Jesus "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called Sons of God" (Matthew 5:9) Mohamed. Married 13 wives and kept sex slaves. (Bukhari 5:268, Qur'an 33:50) Jesus. Was celibate. Mohamed. Slept with a 9-year-old child. (Sahih Muslim 3309, Bukhari 58:236) Jesus. Did not Be Intimate with children. Mohamed. Ordered the murder of women. (Ibn Ishaq 819, 995) Jesus Never harmed a woman. Mohamed. "O you who believe! Fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you and let them find in you hardness." (Qur'an 9:123) Jesus "Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." (Matthew 5:5) Mohamed. Ordered 65 military campaigns and raids in his last 10 years. (Ibn Ishaq ) Jesus Ordered no military campaigns, nor offered any approval of war or violence. Mohamed Killed captives taken in battle. (Ibn Ishaq 451) Jesus Never took captives. Never killed anyone. Mohamed Encouraged his men to Molestation enslaved women. (Abu Dawood 2150, Qur'an 4:24) Jesus Never encouraged Molestation. Never enslaved women. Mohamed. Demanded captured slaves and a fifth of all other loot taken in war. (Qur'an 8:41) Jesus "The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve." (Matthew 20:28) Mohamed. Was never tortured, but tortured others. (Muslim 4131, Ibn Ishaq 436, 595, 734, 764) Jesus Suffered torture, but never tortured anyone. Mohamed. "And fight them until there is no more persecution and religion is only for Allah" (Qur'an 8:39) Jesus. "Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you" (Matthew 5:44) Mohamed Blessed the brutal murder of a half-blind man (al-Tabari 1440) Jesus Healed a blind man (Mark 8:28) Mohamed Ordered a slave to build the very pulpit from which he preached Islam.

As for the OP,you know what is good for yourself and would like to spend the rest of your life with someone you really like, afterall you did said yourself that the 5years relationship you had with your Ex is the worst you've ever faced in life.
