How can I convert from Catholic to Muslim Would this make a difference if I wanted to marry a muslim girl.?

Question

Would it help her strict Muslim family to accept us marrying.

Answer 1

You should only convert if that is what you truly believe.

Answer 2

firstly make sure u are converting 4 a Good reason. such as actually believe in Islam. please do not do dis because u have fallen in love with her. its not a Good enough reason 2 convert. Islam will change your life. completely and u must actually believe in it 2 b strong enough 2 b able 2 go through with the rules of Islam. Islam is quite a strict religion and its important 2 know what your getting ur self in 2. it has many rules that u might find hard 2 adjust 2. so do it 4 the right reason. if u do not believe in it truly and sincerely then don't do it. Islam doesn't not encourage that at all. in the prophet Muhammed's (peace be upon him) time he always told those who wished 2 convert 2 think about it deeply.go over it in your head and sleep on it. he has always said that 2 them. and thus u must really think. don't rush it. and by the way, whether on not her family will allow u 2 marry her usually depends on her culture. most religious families will allow u 2 marry her as Muslims are all equal and discriminating because of your nationality is forbidden in Islam. unfortunately often families are more interested in their culture rather than their religion. its shameful. but Good luck and i hope and pray 4 the best. May peace b with u!!! :)

Answer 3

It is simple to convert to Islam just by reciting a few words. However, your issue seems quite sensitive. One should not convert to Islam for a person they love, as you will not even be considered a true Muslim. You must do it from free choice because you have studied its teachings and agree to them and you wish to make it a way of life for the betterment of yourself and you must also be ready for change in your life.

You must also approach her parents and see what their terms of agreement are. Then once they tell you, you can make a sound judgement and ask yourself if you can achieve those terms. Remember people fall in and out of love all the time and move on, to find your soul mate is a filtering process and for some it may take a lifetime. Make no room for regret. The essence of life is change, a panoply of growth and decay. Elect life and growth, and you elect change and prospect of death. May you find peace and enlightenment.

Answer 4

if you can, you need to speak with the family. tell them what you are willing to do to marry their daughter. but i think you need to think this through. this is a life changing event and one that you got to be sure of. do some research into what muslim's believe and ask yourself can you believe in these things. if you get on well with her family then they may accept you and what you are willing to do for their daughter. you have a hard road ahead and it will not be at all easy. you could become a muslim and they still may not accept you to be honest. it would help if there was more details to your questions and people can help you more. i have got a lot of muslim friends and i could ask them for you. to answer your question. yes its a start.

Answer 5

its easy to convert to islam. however muslims know that to be a true muslim means a new identity. you have to become a muslim for yourself not for this girl or her family.whenever someone goes out with a muslim inorder to marry one of them none muslims always have to convert to islam not vice versa.if you decide to convert and marry her what would happen if down the road you both split up would you stick to being a muslim or would you revert back to being a catholic? you have to think about this very carefully this is not religon that you are only changing but your entire life and existence.do not take this lightly

Answer 6

It is not possible to be a Catholic and want to convert to being a Muslim.
It is obvious that you are no Catholic so your question should only ask how does one become a Muslim.

Answer 7

To convert to Islam is easy, you have to pronounce that there is no god except Allah, and that Mohammad is his messenger. You have to find a mosque and do it in front of the Mosque Imam, and 2 witnesses.

Now you converted it remains between you and Allah, did you convert out of belief, or is it just to get married. To be a good Muslim requires to pray five times a day, fast Ramadan month and pay Zakat, and perform pilgrimage to Mecca if you can afford it.

Its a big but easy obligation friend, and I hope you will be able to manage it.

Best luck.

Answer 8

well if u wish convert u should take help of ne muslim person u know. the person might help u n can be a witness too
n for marrying the muslim girl i think wat matters the most is u both love each other or not, if ya then her parents should understand that for their daughters happiness accept u
wish u good luck

Answer 9

You might convert, and you might get the girl, but eventually, if you become a Muslim, you're going to have to strap on a bomb and blow yourself up like a good little terrorist.

Answer 10

Take the advice from Philip, you MUST take the oath, talk to her parents her family can be your witnesses, plus you need to practice prayers 5 times etc etc, fasting, belief, good luck and no i dont think the family will object if you do the right thing.

All the best she should be really proud of you.

Answer 11

its not allowed for a Muslim girl to marry a non-Muslim. and no they dont have someone chosen for them.. Islam is totally against that.
