Validated:
In Islam, you change your eating time. That is you eat from DUST to DAWN 5.00PM to 5.00 AM, instead of Dawn to dusk. This simply means not eating when the sun is up.
In Christuanity, you start fasting from 12.00 AM, fast the whole day and break at 6 PM, then restart fast at 12.00 am.. During dry fast, which the common approach, you fast for 24hrs. So, I am wondering how they do this together.
The woman should just repent and give her life to Christ.
Give me a reference about the scheduling of the Christian fasting from the Bible if you are truthful

See what Muslims are doing:
“…And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread [of night]. Then complete the fast until the night (sunset)…”
— Qur'an 2:187



Yours is baseless and American-made. Let the man bear witness to the oneness of Allah and be among the guided

Olanrewaju Williams is a Christian and his wife, Kaosara, is a Muslim - and this year they are both fasting.

For the first time since 1993, the Muslim holy month of Ramadan and the Christian season of Lent are taking place at the same time. Both periods involve fasting, prayer and reflection.

We spoke to the couple in Nigeria, where Christians and Muslims make up nearly equal parts of the population, about what observing these sacred periods together means for their family.

There are many of them in yoruba land. I have a friend who is a Christian married to a Muslim lady. Both of them are happily married.

Islam allows moslem men to marry Christians and even Jewish wives. But forbids their women from marrying Christian men. Because they know that the man is in charge and the woman is subservient to him. Living in love is commanded by the Bible but interfaith isn't. The Bible is against interfaith!

If I may ask, which of the denominations of Christians that are fasting.
Cox in my church we fast at a particular day in every week of the month, so we nor dey follow this fasting period.
I guess it's the catholic that observe the lent period, abeg make Una enlighten me of the category of Christians, or denominations that also observe the fasting at this lent period.
For some, (Muslims) they think it's all Christians that follow fast this period of lent, which i know it's not so.
Somebody enlighten me pls .
Re: Interfaith Couple Who Are Fasting Together by Avedonn: 2:15pm On Mar 15
I don't know the version of Islam they are practicing, but in the real Islam, it's forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a non Muslim man.

Na una carry religion for head, I see no reason why I shouldn't marry a Christian girl if she's homely, respectful, responsible, kind and has humanity in her
But you don't see any reason why you will allow your daughter to marry a good responsible and God fearing Christian man abi...?

It is obvious that you are from those unexposed regions where only one religion and African tradition is dominant.

In Yorubaland, hardly does religion play a role when we date. This is because each family has adherents of different faiths and you are not ignorant illiterate about other faiths.

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu,GCFR, is today happily married to Senator(Mrs), Remi Tinubu, a Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, because the Yoruba are sophisticated and exposed to other faiths right from our childhood.

The moment I say "interfaith marraige" , I knew it will be Yoruba. That is part of our sophistication of why we are the most progressive tribe in Africa.
although, there are traces of arrogant in your comment, but you are saying the truth.in Yoruba land, it is not difficult to see two brothers living in peace,yet one is a Christian while the other is a moslem.

They are both born again according to the Bible. If we both have love for eachother then we are doing the will of God and we are both disciples of Jesus even if our religion is different. Truth.

John 14: 21
Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”
Bro stop misquoting the Bible out of context! You might be doing it to promote unity but it should not be at the expense of burying the truth! you can only be a disciple of Jesus if you are a Christian and can be a true disciple if you follow the teachings of Christ. Christ said he is the way the truth and life no one comes to the father except through him. Emphasis "No one"! The origin of Christianinty is gotten from Christ!

Fasting simply means intentional and conscious abstaining from food and other available desires from a particular time so stop the emotional blackmail that they are not fasting. Moreso, must their religion rituals and doctrines be like ours are we practicing the same faith? Abeg... eventually, in Christianity we can say it is 001 then?

A spirit filled Christian can never marry a Moslem... Only church goers and hypocrites will marry interfaith.

What concord has the believer with the unbeliever?

No true Christian will marry a Muslim. Only church goers and people who don't understand the power of Christ

You did not see people like Pastor WF Kumuyi or Adeboye or Oyedepo to use as examples of Yoruba Christian, it's godless people whose conscience has been seared, you are using??

You see where you get it wrong.
Thr christians and muslim who do they call upon? I believe the creator of heaven and earth. [GOD].
In islam we are allowed to married a christian man as long as she will be allowed to practise her religion. Muslim man too can also marry christian lady without imposing islam on her.
If i may ask you who is more tolerable between islam and christianity base on what u said above
Islam and Christians, do not serve the same God...

Stop spewing lies here

Living in harmony in peace is necessary, but to marry when both of them don't serve the same God is a ruse.

The foundation of marriage is to worship God ... And neither Christian nor Muslim serve the same God

what ever is your interpretation of God,i do not know, but everything to me narrows down to Love, peace and harmony.

Don't be deceived that Christians and Muslims worship the same God.
Allah of Muslims is a moon idol introduced and worshipped by the Arabs while the Christians serve and worship the true God of heaven which is not the same as Allah
Christians worship fake God, same as Islam. None of them is the true God. The God who created both of them has been revealed by Great Otem.

Lol, this your idea is without merit. You don't have a clue do you.
Allah who is one is referred to as the creator of the world and of worlds seen and unseen. Does that look like a moon god to you. I'm Christian and I hate it when Christians display such intellectual laziness and jump to erroneous conclusions.
You don't even have a clue where the deception is placed.

Smh.

Ignorance is not bliss. It is obvious that you are not even a Christian. If you are, you will not type the heresy above. This is how you teach heresy and tear families apart. Nowhere in the NT written for the christian era was a Christian forbidden from marrying non-Christians.

You are carnally-minded and the Word of God is not even in you.
Re: Interfaith Couple Who Are Fasting Together by CrownedPhoenix: 3:35pm On Mar 15
Sometimes, I wonder at Christian women.

You'd only see Christian women getting married to muslim men.

How many muslim women do you see get married to Christian men?

They'd ostracize her in her family. And she'd make sure the children go the arabic way.

You missed the point
There is no abstainig from food in eating twice a day. And this has nothing to do with comparison with any other religion. BTW, every critism of Muslim act does not always make the person a christian, it could be from an atheist or a traditionalist
