Well, you should learn a bit about his religion.
Under Islamic law, as a grateful payment for being allowed to live and be "protected," a Jewish or Christian dhimmi paid a special head tax and a special property tax, the edict for which came directly from the Koran: "Fight against those [Jews and Christians] who believe not in Allah ... until they pay the tribute readily, being brought low."
The Messiah will come when all Jews are gathered into the Land of Israel.
Christians can expedite this by their support for the State of Israel against those who would destroy it.
The greatest danger to the whole world is the radical Islam, which would Islamize the whole world if left to their designs.

According to islamic teaching a muslim is allowed to make a fri
endship or work together or cooperate with other religion follow er..Your boy friend is a muslim and you love each other.What do you mean with "together" ?Do you mean that you have lived together in one room for almost 2 years and had an intimate relation with him?If this happened without married you have great sin in line with Islam because God prohibited adultery or fornification.You both should ask for God's forgiveness and do not do like that again until you are married.
If you will married with him I suggest you for converting your religion to Islam because Islam is the only one religion which is blessed by Allah the only one God.I recommand you to learn Islam the translation of holy Qur'an and its hadith.It is a complete life guide for all muslims in this world.You can compare it with your Bible which has so many contradictions.Besides that Allah in the holy Qur'an spoke that if someone converted his/her religion to Islam all of his/her sins of wrong doings before will be forgiven by Allah and he/she will start his/her life without sin like a baby.
You both should practice the life guide in your everyday life such as praying at least 5 times in 24 hours on time,fasting during ramadhan,no adultering,no gambling,no stealing,no cheating,no lying,no drug eddicting,no alcoholic drinking,no conceiting etc.
The God's life guide if it is practiced will bring you both to a safety and happy life in this world and in the life after death.
If you have the same religion with your husband you will have a harmonious family full of love and happy. If you take my suggesti
ons you will make a right choice.You can discuss your converting religion with your bf and also with your parents although they are a religious family.Your parents should know that you are free to choose your husband and your religion.for your good future life.
Good luck and welcome you as my sister to a new best religion.May God bless you all.

If you are serious about God and His word, then you need to know the bible tells us not to be unequally yoked. Muslims do not believe in the Jesus of the bible. They deny that Jesus is the son of God, they deny that Jesus died on a cross to save us from our sins, and they deny that He is the only way to salvation.
God gives us counsel for our own good. What can you possibly have in common with someone who doesn't know Jesus Christ? Seek God and His word and allow Him to bring into your life another Christian.

you know the bible, all throughout it you are told not to be yoked together with nonbelievers, that was wht the problem was with Lot and his wife, she wasnt a Christian and died because of it. and in many other places in the bible it says this same thing. Studys made show that there is a 90% chance that a man and a woman, each sharing different beliefs, will change them within a year of there marriage. My opinion would be to break up. Who do you love more, God, or your boyfriend. Also, if one day he dies (which will happen) and he didnt convert to Christianity, you will always know you will not see him in heaven.
Sorry for being negative but that is the truth.
Study the Bible and see what it has to say

I don't know about your choice, but i know that in his religion (which is mine as well), you are not aloud to have girlfriends nor boyfriends, so the bad choice was probably is... if he wanted something with you, he should have told you that he wanted something serious. In your side, i think Christians are not obliged to marry from people that believe in Christianity like Muslims should marry someone that believes in God, so it seems ok. It's not like he is going to force you to do things, he seems very liberal already with his religion... But God knows best

So much spite, hatred and down-right evil in some of these answers.
I am disgusted by some of the things I have read here.
If you love each other - and two years together would imply more than simple infatuation - then you will need to work together if you wish to stay together.
Interfaith marriages can and do work - but you will need to go into it with your eyes open, with each of you prepared to discuss and compromise.
How strong in your faith is each of you? Can you agree how any children will be raised?
Anything is possible - if you are prepared to work at making it work.
Ignore all the hatred and venom from some of these answers.
I hope that you will be happy.

Well, it's well-known that people who share beliefs get along better. It you both hold radically different views, it will likely cause friction down the road. Another issue to consider is the religion of your children; you and your boyfriend could possibly have a lot of conflict in deciding which religion to raise them in.

Neither Muslims nor Christians are supposed to have any kind of intimate relationships outside of marriage.
Muslims aren't even supposed to kiss prior to marriage.
Well, at least the girls aren't. Maybe men are exempt from that.

Well, if you are a practicing christian, it's not. The bible does say not to be unequally yoked. This includes nonbelievers as well as those who practice another religion. And if he's a practicing muslim, what about if you get married and have children?
I don't think you can raise a child in two different religions. You either believe your religion is right or wrong. Would you allow your child to be muslim knowing that according to your faith, he/she isn't saved and won't go to heaven?
I'm not one to judge, and everyone has to make their own decisions. It all comes down to how deeply you believe in your religion versus your feelings for your bf.
