Hi, I am a Filipina. And I have an Indian boyfriend from Bangalore. He is a Muslim. I don't know if he can marry me as what he's asking me. Because I know their tradition. I m scared that by that time his Family will find a lady for him. We are currently working here in Dubai. Do I have to stop our relationship?
Thanks
Hi,
My ex girlfriend was from Thailand. It didn't work cause of the many differences exist between us and it is over. I never get used to eat thai food anyway.
most of my Indian friends from Bangalore are Hindu not Muslim so I find it is strange, but arranged marriage in traditional India family is still high unless they are independent type.
I think just working it out together if you and he have strength and faith to fight together, it's better to be independent in finance too.
good luck
Thanks dear
Hi dear, better yet to check your boyfriend if he is really into you. You can feel it by the way. And you can slowly open up your doubts and fears on South Indian culture. If he allows you to even speak with his mother then, he is really committed to you.
I am going to marry one New Delhi man and my parents-in-law agreed about our relationship although it is very uncommon for an Indian guy is going to marry a girl from a different culture.
According to indian law, there is no problem to marry, religion n region is not a matter.
The traditions n values its depend on both of u

You might be asked to change your religion, for his,, For the most 'part'. Muslim's are really not ment to marry non Muslins, but he might be diffrent,
Hi,
There are a lot of filipino muslims, if you are looking for, also they are same your traditions,
Also there are a lot of filipino non muslims, as your tradition too,
Choose for the first priority in your life,is it the religion first , family tradition or love. Which come first the God order or emotion and your heart first, .. people cant advice you becouse everyone have different priority at their minds, but first of all
The God order comes, and the right path.

If the world was like you, and me then it would be a much better place
good on as
"If the world was like you, and me then it would be a much better place"!
I wonder where in the world have I heard, or read those words befòre? Ah, now I remember. Right, every religion on this planet, proselytizes the exact same belief syndrome
If your willing to change your religion just for the sake of love...then continue your relationship with him! If not....... then you know the answer!
Ahhh,
I saw now some people comments, any way, choose what you want,
The love not always will be, the family will gone, the happiness not coming complete not living long, also the traditions isn' t fixed , and can be change,... Only with the God every thing you can get, from happines, to eternal life, to family, to your love, .. without the God, nothing can stay, unless if the God agree and accept, ... second thing always the faith and believe in the God come at the first, ... Unless if you still dont know what means the God and religion, or make the girls and ladies your Gods.. you should have some treatment, 😊, every thing the god grant you and gave you , from your breath to your feeling to your light of yor eyes, and he put you in some test and exam in this live to obey him and follow his orders, before your heart love, .. it is the main exam from the real God, and the big reward from the God for whose obey, and the big panishment for those people whose disobey. the limited and fast enjoyment in this life, nothing compared to the real happiness and reward from the God...
If thisgracia knows what we know, in that regard, then she'll totally "disappear" from that relationship, looooong before it becomes a serious scenario.

haha it is just another term saying we should go back to "the source" and we have no idea where the source is unless we die.
So finally, when they have not yet seen the black hole, we all have God in the different name.
I am atheist but I believe in God, and my God is black hole.

Talk about interracial relationship.... Actually you can keep your own religion after marriage, no big deal actually, like my parents (different religions) and they still live happily, just that sometimes, my father and I feel annoying when my mother keeps giving our food/home stuffs to church ( and we both call it as " an act of church corruption" )

I believe in karma, not God haha.

My boyfriend told that only Islam has to convert if you want to marry a Muslim. With other religion, it is your free will.
Depend on the person as well, if that person is not religious (like my boyfriend) then he/she let you do whatever you want , but for some people, religion is their first priority, then you have no choice to follow their rules if you want to marry them.... or you yourself feel interested in it too.

someone will have to give something up
your Christianity
or his religion and in some cases his family
from my point of view, I don't think religion should be a problem when it comes to marriage, although alot of people fine it hard to work out their differences, to me, what matters most is the connection between the two of you, talk to him and see if he's willing to accept you for your religion and are you also willing to accept him?
i don't know much about religion, but the little thing i know about Islam is that even in marriage, a man or woman that is not a muslim should be converted to muslim. Otherwise a muslim backing away from his or her religion because of marriage or any other reason, the head of that muslim person is in danger.
Muslim man will not problem when married non-muslin girl. But muslim girl can't marry non-muslim man. Because head of family on islam is man
Ohh,
some people not Muslim and giving wrong decision about Islam,
I put here Islamic reference to you all people to read from the reference what about the marriage in Islam or any other article as ( meaning the God in Islam):
http://www.islamweb.net/en/index.php?pa … n%20muslimhttp://www.islamweb.net/en/articles/
This website very good as reference for non muslim but I dont know why somtimes blocked:
https://www.islamreligion.com/
and I hope for some people to study about meaning God in Islam and understand it as much as they can,
or you can watch youtube channel Dr Zakir Naik
it is very important and easy to reach the ideas faster

I was just going to say this... as far as I know- a muslim man can marry a woman as long as she believes in the monotheistic god (so a muslim, christian, or jew) but a muslim woman can only marry a muslim man... I have a christian friend who is married to a muslim man. Of course- it can be different with different cultural interpretations.
Hi all,
I think you both have to talk about personally as this is not a matter to discuss publically. Meanwhile, you will receive mostly native views about Muslims just due to Islamophobia. However, Islam is a complete lifestyle. For instance, I have an example, My cousin married to a Christian girl when he was in the army. Her family rejected to accept her anymore then she converted to Muslim and they Remarried under Islamic law and now they have a happy family including 4 children.
Islam does not Force you to do it just tell you the way how to live, what to wear, what to eat, How to behave with family, wife, parents, neighbors etc.
please go and understand the Islam closely then you can decide to continue you relation either not.
wish you best of luck.
Regards,
" a muslim man can marry a woman as long as she believes in the monotheistic god (so a muslim, christian, or jew) but a muslim woman can only marry a muslim man"...
if this i true, its "very chauvinistic". And not fair, and with this type of belief, no one should start there life off as a second class citizen to a man

Hi This Gracia. I'm 66 years old ex pat English guy with a world of experience in relationships, recently married to a 41 year old beautiful Cambodian widow with one son. If your boyfriend truly loves you and you him, love will find a way to keep you together. It pains me to think that our happiness on this jurney called life. That our three score & 10 years would be marred by a fleeting belief in some entity that in my opinion is the product of someone else's thinking. We should think for ourselves and be happy every day of our lives. Treat everyone you meet how you expect to be treated and be at peace with yourself. Good luck my lady. T
Hi all! As I have slid down the Bannister of life I've picked up a few splinters, one of which is that Religion, began and was created 5000 years ago in Egypt as a means of controlling an ever growing population and to elevate the pheroh to the position of a super human as head of it and the laughable keeper with his high priest of the secrets of the afterlife. Religion is the greatest cause of human death on this earth. I would love it if anyone anywhere of any religion could show anyone anywhere of someone coming back from being dead to give any information of what happens on the other side. What a load of complete cobblers. So, so many inocent people murdered and all in the name of someone's warped perception of religion that was invented 5000 years ago to control people. T
what an interesting topic... fast forward.. you got married and yet it didn't work out, just make sure that during the marriage you are still an independent woman, working and earning for yourself, çoz worst scenario would be a "divorce" and if you're fully dependent on him, where and how will you begin after he leaves >> my opinion is applicable as to whatever your religion is.
not understanding.... explains you.
The hilarity is that Islam is just like every other male_dominated (double-standard) based religion on this planet.
John Lennon would probably still be alive, had he not published the song "Imagine".
Yasanabu hello. I think you need to read my post on religion in general. Religion is the largest cause of human death on this planet. People commit mass murder all in the name of their warped perception of their religion. People are elevated to become leaders of their religion, leaders of mass murderers!!! Innocent human beings trying to live their lives as best they can, fall in love, have children, be happy with their every day lives!! Then some self appointed judge and jury tells them, no you can't live your life like you want to you must live your life as I say you can. What ever happened to freedom and freedom of choice for goodness sake we're only here for the blink of an eye. Religion in whatever format no thanks not for me. T
