There's a situation I'd like to ask about. My friend is a British white convert to Islam (twice divorced with a young child). I've know her for around 20 years so we understand each other quite well.
She's recently confided in me that she's fallen in love with a non-Muslim man. From what I know, he doesn't follow any religion but he's very respectful towards her being Muslim. In fairness to them, he sounds lovely and I know he treats her well.
She was married previously to 2 Arab guys who both treated her little rubbish and didn't respect her as a Muslim or as an kind of woman. This (non-Muslim) man sounds wonderful but my only concern for her is that he's not Muslim. She talks about a future with him and he doesn't pressure her to quit Islam or anything like that. In fact, he sounds very supportive - buys her halal food, encourages her to wear hijab and so on.
My friend's faith is strong but because of both traumatic marriages, she'd never marry another Muslim man.
There's no way he's open to embracing any sort of religion and she respects his position on this. He speaks well of Islam but isn't interested in adopting it.
Any advice? Please, no replies saying how "haram" the relationship is and how it's haram to fall for a non-Muslim. These kind of comments aren't helpful and I really want to support my friend.
