Inter-religious Marriage. Opinions Please by olumzz(m): 7:02pm On Nov 05, 2017
Hi guys, i need opinions. I am a muslim but my fiance is a Christian. We wanna get married nw bt her dad is a pastor. He is insisting his daughter cannot marry a muslim and i can't convert because islam made me who i am. A better person and dat is wat she fell in love with. I can't lie to them or pretend that I'm a Christian as my fiance suggested.
What can i do?

As a muslim, why would you wanna marry a xtian in the first place? It brings about conflict.

As a Muslim male, it's totally okay for him to marry a Christian woman, but it is forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a Christian man; it is tantamount to apostasy for them. I wonder what sort of advice the fellow seeks.

Look for a Muslimah since her father is not in support of your alliance.

Oh. I guess I should have added the disclaimer: From a Muslim's POV.

Please leave our Christian Sister alone and look for a Muslim to marry. I blame your girl friend who is flicking around with a Muslim. God knows none of my sisters can have anything to do with Muslim. She would be ostracized that very day.

Kindly move forward and look for a Muslim to marry.

What opinions do you need here. How would you even date a Christian whose father is even a pastor and expect him to accept.
That's how i was liking one Muslim guy and he wanted to marry me. I just tried to see my life in the next few years...both of us not being able to pray together as a couple...my kids going to ile kewu...blah blah. I quickly gave myself brain

I am a Muslim married to a Christian lady whose father is a senior clergy man. We are happy together. Late Alh Abubakar Audu was married to Alhaja Aisha Audu, they had a very messy divorce. Atiku Abubakar's son is an Alhaji married to a Muslim woman from Bornu, we have been reading about their messy divorce in the newspapers. Pastors Chris Oyakhilome was married to Pastor (Mrs) Anita Oyakhilome, they had a messy divorce. Pastor Chris Okotie was married twice to two Pastor (Mrs), they are all apart now.

I have no advice for the O.P.

You mentioned few amongst a million couples. Being married and practicing different religions creates complications. When children come...will they go to church or mosque?... if we need to pray together as a couple, do we kneel down or take the Muslim position?
Before going into a lifetime decision like that, you must weigh your options. Think five to ten years down the line.
My cousin married a muslim against her family's advice but she said they were in love and he promised not to marry another wife cheesy. Years later; when he wanted to take a 2nd wife, she raised hell, earth...everything but her family didn't even support her. They told her that she has to live with her life decision. He has a third wife now grin ...a young fresh 19yr old chick.
Op i know you are the man in this case and you have the advantage but you still have to think about how the future will be when the love shacking is out the window.

Ask Senator (Pastor) Oluremi Tinubu how her life is being married to a Muslim named Bola Ahmed Tinubu for about 40 years now. Also also Dame Emmanuella Fashola how her life is being married to a Muslim named Raji Fashola for over 30 years now. I have several instances around me but I just have to mention people you know. My sister, God first and everything shall fall in place.
