i am in love with a muslim lady?

Question

she is a practicing muslim and i am a catholic. can we marry and respect each others faiths and live a happy life?

Answer 1

I'll never merry a non Muslim man even if i would die without him.

Answer 2

Of course you can. But I highly suggest disscussing these things before you get married. Like if you want to have kids, how do you want to raise them? And you should discuss other issues, especially where your faiths differ.

Many ppl of other faiths marry, and have a long happy relationship. In fact you can even have a "dual" cerimony. You get a priest, and muslim leader (I don't know what there equivilant to a pastor or priest) to do the ceremony, and they encorperate parts of each of your faiths. Now i'm not really up on catholisism, but your marriage may not be recognized by the catholic church. If this is important to you, I would defintly look into it.

Answer 3

Of course, you can. Both religions are monotheistic and believe in the same god.

Know as much as you can about both of your faiths and celebrate them.

Cover the bases with both sets of inlaws and allay any fears they may have.

Since she is a muslim, she would acknowledge that you have the final word regarding various issues but would appreciate open discussions, first.

Expect her to be well-educated. Muslims put a high premium on education. They have been preservers of the arts, philosophy, science and math for hundreds of years.

Find out what kind of muslim she is and where she is from. She could be in danger from her male relatives. If she is in America, that probably isn't a problem.

Before you get married, please discuss the religious upbringing of your children. This could cause some confusion for them, and I'm sure you wish to build a strong, stable family.

Your marriage could promote healing within your community. Go far it1 mANY BLESSINGS!!

Answer 4

As far as I know muslims respect christianity more than christians respect muslims. These two religions are almost the same except one thing. Christians say that Jesus is Gods son. Thats it!!! The only difference (or some very small things). Maybe youll find peace between these two major religions, and find the true meaning of being a believer, a true God believer.

Answer 5

Yes, you can respect each others' faiths. But the more your religion means to each of you, the more difficult it will be for you two to understand each other. There is a world for each of you that the other does not enter. Also, while now you may not be in direct conflict, what will happen when you have children? How will you raise them?

Answer 6

And I'm inlove with a Muslim guy. We not at marriage stage though.

Sure you can get married if you want. You don't have to change religions (don't believe the hogwash people say). My great-grandfather was also muslim but I'm christian. Conversion is not a must (otherwise Iwould have been muslim too).

If you guys get married, I hope you will be happy together. God bless.

Answer 7

Not if you believe half of the nonsense about Muslims that you were posting a few weeks back!

My wife is Muslim. I am an atheist. If we can make it, anybody can... Contact me from my avatar if you have any particular questions.

Answer 8

You will have to make decisions on the childrens faith. Never bring up religion. Love will not cover this unless there is an agreement.

Answer 9

The problem is not with you, her religion does not permit for her to marry any one who is not muslim like her, it is a hard situation

Answer 10

Yeah! My cousin was in a simular situation with who is now his wife. They had a marriage in both faiths and everybody was happy and no one was offended. Try running that past her and her parents.
