Hindu muslim marriage

[sravani0]

Hello. My guy is a muslim and I'm an hindu.
So we are talking about our marriage and he informed me that it is mandatory for me to get converted into islam in order to marry him. Otherwise our marriage can't be acceptable. Now here is the thing.. I am not a religious person. He is very religious. I want to marry him but i don't want to get converted. I said i wanna be like who i am. I asked him to accept me the way i am but he says he can't as it is not allowed in his religion for marriage. Now we both are stuck.
Is there any couple out there with interfaith marriage? Please advise.

• and would want his children to be of strong faith

I wouldn’t have thought it would be possible for people with different beliefs to be married

Of course it is. Many people are in inter faith marriages. I doubt it's easy at times, but it's perfectly possible- as long as any expectations and red lines are laid down early and both are in agreement.

I didn't even bother to read it after I saw the beating wives bit. It has nothing to do with Islam and if that poster is sincere then listen to this to clear misconceptions. Otherwise search from Hamza speakers corner bearing wives as he's a white male born in the UK and will answer that for you.

Women are converting to Islam twice as much as men so clearly it isn't as you've posted. No sane person would concert to a religion that allows beating of wives.

Anyway here is one

And

Christianity also "allows" beating of wives, if you take the bible at it's word. Only, strangely it doesn't condone it, and neither does any other religion. It's almost like times have moved on since these religions were founded. Funny that.

The hadith (sayings of the prophet Muhammad peace be upon him) go hand in hand with the Qur'an. In the Qur'an we are told to pray and go on the pilgrimage but not told how to pray. This detailed explanation is in the Qur'an, as well as every step of Hajj.
In the hadith you are also told you can't hit X and y and z, basically leaving you with no option at all. Imagine a light toothbrush, it's like tapping with that but my husband wouldn't even dare do that. The situations are also highlighted in the hadith. Beating is not from Islam.
If you check the videos above you will find the explanation. I don't want to do a copy and paste job like pp.
If anyone beats then it is cultural and no way from Islam. A real Muslim man won't touch his wife. He's not even allowed to touch our money, whether from work or inheritance whereas he has to share his.
One has to actually study Islam properly and not look at anti Islam websites to actually find out what Islam says or maybe, sounds a bit crazy but, ask the women who are choosing to convert to Islam or who are happily Muslims. They'll tell you as it is.

Don't marry him.
He is religious, you are not.

I agree with those who say he should not be in a relationship with you, for religious reasons.

" True love" is not the best basis for a marriage and bringing up afamily. Things like agreeing on fundamental things in your life are.

He, leave be upon him said:
You can't cause pain
You can't hit the face
You can't leave a mark

What does the 'tap' symbolise? In the end it's divorce because he can't do the above three.

Research these hadiths if you really want to learn about beating as it seems all threads like this go down the wife beating road.

As a woman who is happy to be a Muslim woman (and who has plenty of rights, thank you very much ithappened12) you should only accept Islam if It's something you would do it if he was not in the picture. It needs to be for you and you only. Don't do it if it doesn't feel right. Good luck.

The way I understand it Islam and Christianity don’t condone wife-beating they put controls around it. So when it does happen there is legal clarity about what can and cannot be punished. But of course as there isn’t as of yet an official way to teach Islam (or any effective accreditations) there are many ‘Imams’ who don’t have a clue about what the Qu’ran says or doesn’t say and can’t interpret it.

@GrumpyHoonMain username is unique 😁

In Islam there is a system but there will be bogus people in every community.

The rulings are taken first from the Qur'an. To back it, the Imams looked at the hadith of which there are thousands and if it agreed with the Qur'an and explained it in more detail, they took it and they came to a judgement on all different aspects. This was done at the time directly after the Prophet peace be upon him.

Hence there is a chain of narration and knowledge going all the way back to the Prophet peace be upon him. The rulings are there and in concrete.

The crazy people are to be ignored. There are many of them nowadays but we still have our books going back and those rulings will never change. Judgement has been made. There are only new rulings to be made on new things that come out eg technology or the permissibility of a new medication etc etc. As for everything else, it has ready been decided.

Muslims don't believe they need a uni degree to be accredited.

We have our own system and that is through the traditional transition through chain of narration. Islamic madrasahs/jamias where one studies over seven years in great detail.

There's a practical demonstration of beating according to the Qur'an and Hadith around 16 minutes in part 2 of the video I linked earlier. You may be shocked. PS they are messing around. That stick is huge. What can be do with it?

@Babba2014...You don’t have to prove anything to anyone. Many people will choose to believe whatever makes them feel comfortable and most aren’t interested/do not have time to engage in debates.

If you marry this man OP you’ve got a lifetime of this to look forward to.

That's true but OP's thread has been taken to such a place that misinformation could affect her. I don't want that for her or anyone reading this. May Allah guide us all to the truth and keep us steadfast on it. Ameen.

Ask yourself how he would be satisfied with you going through a mandatory Muslim conversion when he KNOWS you don’t even believe in God? It’s hypocritical nonsense. Becoming a Muslim not be undertaken lightly. It needs to be about more than just jumping through some hoops to appease his religious community and family. You need to have a faith, a genuine calling, or it’s utterly meaningless.

I find the whole idea of converting for marriage beyond ridiculous and I can’t respect anyone who would either ask it or consider it.

Sorry I meant Pinkroses21

Rosetips is a different poster from years ago.

I have been in a similar situation and my DP and I decided that we were willing to cut ties with family if they attempted to bully us into doing anything or if they were rude or judgemental about our relationship. We made our stance clear to them (in a polite way!) and have never had any problems yet.

@sravani0

I searched your username to see if you've posted about this man before. I see that you've had a couple of concerns about him recently where he hasn't appeared to be as committed as you would like, leaving you feeling uncertain about the future.

Please be careful he is not throwing the 'you just convert' requirement at you as a way to avoid or postpone further commitment.

Don’t listen to those who claim that Islam somehow empowers women, despite all the overwhelming evidence to the contrary available all around the world. You are not compatible - run. Run far and run fast

@Guavaf1sh you don't have any right to speak on behalf of us Muslim women who are happy and empowered or whatever other word you want to use. The women around the world who are not empowered have a cultural background or extremists in their family going against the rulings of Islam.
Mind boggling how someone can talk on behalf of us.
