As per social laws prevailing in diff. communities it may b a SOCIAL crime/sin but it has not been defined as crime in any criminal laws of India. And recently GOI has issued orders motivating such inter-caste relationships.
But u must learn a lesson from his behaviour (i.e. loving to his parents, which is his prime duty) that u shud also love & respect yr parents and must keep care to mantain RESPECT OF YR PARENTS IN THE SOCIETY at HIGH PRIORITY. Don't mind this cheating & go for any other option. By the way it is said that WHATEVER IS HAPPENING MAY BE FOR BETTERMENT OF US. All the best.

I'm no expert, but from what I have seen and heard what is a sin or a crime to a Muslim is much different than what other religions believe. Killings, murder, beheadings, suicide are obviously not sins A Muslim is rewarded for these acts, but I do think the true Muslim would consider marrying a non-muslim a crime. It is fact that Muslim men consider women a sub class somewhere below cattle and dogs. A good wife beating is considered okay to some Muslims. It's a whole different mind set. You could never completely understand or be accepted.

According to Muslim Personal Law (Sharia), a Muslim man can marry a non-Muslim woman after converting her to Islam. By adding an infidel (Kafer) and a non-believer to his faith, he scores religious points as well. So it is far from a crime or sin.
Your case is somewhat different. You loved this Muslim guy and left everything for him (didn't quite understand that though). But his parents are against their son marrying a non-Muslim woman. He has deferred to his parents' wishes and ignored his love and her sacrifices. Conclusion: He never really loved you. You better forget him. The quicker the better.

i dont think its a crime and this guy may not think so either but peer preasure is a very hard thing to avoid muslim religion is a very complicated thing indeed and unless you are sure what you are doing and are confident you can beat the odds just let sleeping dogs lay as you may get into more than you can handle and its a well known fact not all muslim marriges are made from love choice of partner is not always an option in many cases they learn to love there spouse there are few that actually love there wife or husband to be in the beginning its a parents choice like it or not

It is not a crime! There are many non-muslims who have married muslims. I think the catch is that you will have to convert into their religion. Would you want to do that ? If you already have a religion , value it, instead of converting to be with a loved one. Unless you are very ready and prepared.

i am in the same situation. my bf is hindu. the family is a very strict family when it comes to marriage, and to whom.
the pressure is on them 24/7. the parents tell them (the boys in the family) they will be disowned.
i too left everything behind, for him. he ditched me several months ago. not even a phone call, or a letter.
my family disowned me, i came from a very strict christian family. my church, well...i had doubts about what i really believed in before i met this man. i am still very interested in hinduism.
my heart is really dead right now, but i know my bf was pressured into obeying his parents. i was told because of his name and background, if he does not marry inside his 'name', the mother commits suicide.
i am not for sure how accurate that is, but thats what i was told by another hindu when i said my bf name.
they are very strict, and very condemning IF they look outside their boundaries of marriage. muslems and hindus.
that is what i was told. like i said i am not for sure how accurate my information is. contact some local muslems and ask some questions. i did that. i found a hindu temple and went and talked to them.
my bf is afraid of hurting his mother, and has gone with her a long time ago. i have to accept it. we tried, and there is nothing else i can do. just carry on with life.
all i can say is that if he really loves you, and you him...elope, take off. your love will overcome everything. this is your life and his, not your parents not his.
if you still access to contact him, tell him to leave and come get you and go get married. and live your life.
good luck.
my prayers are with you.

I'm not positive, but it would be consistent with Judaism requiring Jews to marry Jews and Christianity requiring Christians to marry Christians, for Islam to require Muslims to marry Muslims, right?
