Can a Catholic woman and Muslim man get married and live happily with kids? why/why not?

Answer 1

It is definitely possible as my father is of Egyptian and Lebanese origin and a Muslim. my Mum is Anglo Australian and was raised as a Catholic. Obviously my family is very moderate when it comes to the religious observance and tolerance.
We were brought up as normal Australian kids and attended State schools. We went to church sometimes with my Nana and we went to the Mosque on special days with Dad and my mother.
They were married here in Australia in an Islamic ceremony and also by a civil celebrant.
I have many Friends who have very similar backgrounds .
When ever someone asks which religion we are, my Dad always says our family runs on love not religion.

Answer 2

Don't know about happily ever after, but they can get married. Unlike a Muslim woman that can not wed outside the Muslim religion. How is that for fairness and equality?

Answer 3

I think they can get married and live happily ever after. But I also think they cannot get married by a catholic priest unless they both were catholic, but I don't know about Muslims view on interfaith marriages. I do think there would be things that come up, such as holidays, raising your kids in which religion and other points that would come up. It would need good communication to suceed.

i became questioning if she became Coptic-Catholic or Coptic-Orthodox. Is is forbidden? No. the sole difficulty that would desire to take place is that if/whilst the couple has a baby and that they debate as to which Church the baby may well be baptized. Granted the two Orthodox and Catholic church homes settle for each others baptismal rites. Orthodoxy has apostolic succession and all seven sacraments. however the project would desire to take place as to which Church the baby's destiny may well be in contact...on Holy Days and such. Am I going with mom or Dad? I even have an acquaintance who's Maronite Catholic and his spouse is Orthodox (i won't be able to submit to in concepts which Church she's affiliated with). They lived in Lebanon for some years beforehand of emigrating to u.s.. They raised their 5 toddlers Catholic. They as quickly as advised me that for the period of Lebanon the controversy between the laity (and in basic terms the laity) over Catholic and Orthodox became so diluted that no-one cared which Church you belonged to in case you acquire in contact with a blended-married. Catholics and Orthodox might attend each and every others Divine Liturgy and not blink an eye fixed of project. i do no longer understand if this meant they nonchalantly gained Holy Communion from each and every others' Church. Reception of Sacraments between Catholics and Orthodox crosses a important line. even nevertheless the two church homes have faith interior the genuine Presence of Christ interior the Eucharist, the eparchial bishop has to furnish his approval...exceedingly for the Orthodox getting in contact with the Catholic Church. to a pair Catholics, an Orthodox getting chummy with Catholicism is like somebody "coming domicile to Rome".

Every love at first, is sweet, and noting seems strange,after marriage, love turns to a different type of love, family responsibilities, so on and on, if husband is Muslim, after few years, he will get pressured from his surroundings, that what kind of Muslim are you, by asheming him and humiliating he turn and pressure his wife and kids to become Muslim, one of the answerer wrote about a book "not without my daughter" it is a real life and true story, there is so many examples like that we hear every day, if he loves you he should become a christian and Be baptize in a church, do never become Muslim, it was a reason for you to be born Christian, further more Muslims are on a verge of falling and distraction, we are in 22 century, till NOW this barbaric people practice beheadings in street with singing and chanting, stoning women to death with false accusation just to get ride of there wife, the list is big, be care full ask god why you were born to a Catholicism, pray in Jesus. Amen

Answer 6

Yes they can
I am a perfect example. My husband is Muslim and im Christian. We love each other very much and are very happy together.
So it can happen and im sure it has happened many of many times before me.
Now im sure there are some women from another religious group have married Muslim men and things didn't go to well. I don't think it really has anything to do with religion parable more to do with the way the person was raised.

Answer 7

Yes Why not,, both are human, and have the write to get married,,,
for me i am Catholic and dont have problem to marry an Muslim woman ,,

Answer 8

sure, but depends how much are they loving each other , and how much are they respecting each other religion,

but the only problem is the kids , sometimes the parents try to make the kids choose their religion, but after all, its better to marry from the same religion, but if u love from another religion , then its ok .

I wish u all the best.

Answer 9

a catholic woman might marry a catholic man and end up with a divorce and even vice versa! so religion is not a rule for a marriage to fail or not! love counts !

Answer 10

YESSS WHYY NOT??
look religion is not about about How you pray or when!
It's about how you treat other people!
Teach your kids the good in both religions!
Teach them about love and be a good example of it!!
