I am a non-muslim and now that I am married I have to change my religion to Islam. Should I seek divorce or should I stick with my marriage bec my family is not happy at all. They are genuinely worried for me as I will have to sacrifice a lot such as name change as well. Please advice. Thanks

oh my. This should have been worked out before you got married. Do not change who you are and what you believe for another person. If you can not live honestly with your husband, and he will not accept you unless you change in this very major way, then I am afraid that divorce due to irreconcilable differences are a matter of course!
p.s. is it possible for your husband to change his religion to whatever you are ? if that answer is no, then he needs to accept you as you are or you need to get a divorce. Practicing and following religion that you do not believe in with your whole heart is not fooling anyone, especially God.

First of all, you certainly don't HAVE to change your religion just because you are married but maybe you meant that your husband is forcing you. This should have been discussed prior to the marriage especially since the islamic religion is so intolerant of other religions as well as disrespectful to women. This wasn't going to be a mutually compromising mariage no matter how you look at it. I think your family is right and you need to find someone who can respect your religion as well.

What is wrong with you. This topic should have be brought up before marriage. What did you guys talk about before marriage. Or was someone force or trick in to marriage. Most women change there name after marriage so why the worry. You and your are not ready for marriage, so PLEASE do not have any children until EVERYTHING comes on the table and resolved. WE did not need anymore children in the world that are confused because there parents FAILED to communicated. This is not a problem, it just take communication between YOU and YOUR spouse ONLY.

You don't change your religion because of marriage. Honestly religion is between you and your God no matter what religion you are. When you hit whatever pearly gates you hit your spouse will not be there beside you. Only you and your maker better make sure you know what you believe and stick with it. You are responsible for your actions. You can't blame it on your marriage and I had to.
Instead of asking yahoo, maybe you should be praying about it?

If you are a true Christian then you can't change your religion to Muslim, it would be to deny Jesus. I guess if your just a part time christian then it doesn't matter. Maybe you could just as easily change to Jewish.
Muslims don't seem to be tolerant of other religions. You should of never married him. There are many cases of Muslim men running off with the children and taking them to a mid-eastern country and you never see them again.
Get a divorce and find someone more suitable.
