I belive if you really love someone you have to respect his/her religion. Because I would like he respects what I believe too. The time has changed, there is more tolerance and flexibility about the religion thing, and if you're both mature enough you can deal to live with 2 religions. Respect, that's the base of a good relationship.

well I can only speak in theory cause all women I dated where either christian or didn't give a damn about religion, so didn't effect me, but when inlaws interfere you could be mirror images of each other, cause they'll create problems.

and kids - I would show them both religions, and they can make up their mind when they reach 18

I don't believe one's religion can be that eaasily "changed", provided it's deep faith rather than just some formality.

That said, I believe we all refer to one God using various names. So as far as I'm concerned, it would be no problem to co-exist with someone who loved God and served Him according to his own tradition. I see more problems for me trying to co-exist with a die-hard atheist.

I am a Muslim man and the 1st thing taught to me was that NO ONE HAS TO CONVERT...You are not even allowed to ask them to convert for you.

The Qur'an states a Muslim man can marry any woman from the book (that means Christian, Jewish, no religion].

It states that a Muslim woman must marry a Muslim man.

I get so tired of Muslim men misquoting what is written.

The real deal is the reason Muslim men prefer their wives to convert is because in the Muslim world = Men are responsible for family. Children take the religion, nationality and name of their father. It creates less conflict if the mother's faith is the same.

I, personally know many Kuwaiti men who are married to Christian women and the women have not changed their religion. I know Saudi Arabian men married to non-Muslim women & the women have not been forced to convert.

Conversion is a personal choice. It is an individual's desire to connect with God. It cannot be forced, It cannot be mandated. No written laws mandate this for Muslim men marrying non-Muslim women.professor

No,Islam doesnt allow to marry a nonmuslim woman untill she convert in muslim.May be there are many couples who are living together but they cannot marry it is prohibited and forbidden in islam ,if a muslim man/woman marry wth an other religious person wthout conversion that is not marraige.
Quran doesnt say to marry wth a women from an other religion/athiest before conversion,Quran says that if a couple wants to marry they must be converted in islam.

the command of Allah for NOT allowing a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim man as man is responsible for his wife and children, and responsibility cannot be given to someone who incomplete in his belief.

“And give not (your daughters) in marriage to Al Mushrikun (atheists) till they believe (in Allah Alone)” (Al-Baqarah: 221)

A Muslim man can marry a non-Muslim girl only if she belongs to a religion that is "ahl-e-Kitaab" (People of the Book). Hence a Muslim man can only marry a Muslim, Jew or a Christian.

A Muslim man is discouraged from marrying a non-Muslim woman if there is no Islamic State or if he is not living in an existing Islamic state, since the non-Islamic states do not recognize his rights as head of the family to raise the children Islamically.

As I said before...educate only when u have proof in ur hand. Considering I just did a web search of notable Muslim Scholar websites to ensure my answers where in-line and correct in accordance with ISLAM....maybe you might want to re-read your Holy Qur'an because you have forgotten some valuable teachings of the Prophet (PBUH).professor comfort

thumbs up thumbs up thumbs up thumbs up

This is also my preference. I was raised this way, even though my Parents were of the same Faith.

However, in the interest of Family Unity, I would consider converting if we wanted the Children to see us United. This is if the Guy could not bring Himself to raise the children the way I was with tolerance and respect to all Faiths, and Leaving the choice of Faith to the Child when they get older, as my Parents left it up to us.

I say this b/c I realize not all could handle raising Children the way my Parents did.

BTW, I have Followed my Husband's Religion for this very reason
