Need any help ?
satan will try to decieve you in anyway he can. It's not worth losing your soul over. Witness to him and then leave him to God...

Answer 2

You should boot him out not only for disrespecting your beliefs but he's no good at all for you but if you don't believe me or anyone else then you should pray for God's guidance on what to do and go talk to a Catholic Priest about this.
The Catholic church like most major religions disapprove of interfaith marriages. Vatican Cautioned Against Muslim-Catholic Marriages back in 2004. Referring to women as the "least-protected member of the Muslim family," it says that "bitter experience" shows the difficulties facing European women who marry Muslim men. It says those difficulties are compounded in cases where the couple goes to live in a Muslim country.

You will have to decide which is more important to you; your walk with God or this man who wants to lead you astray.

2 Corinthians 6:14-15 (NIV)
14Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? 15What harmony is there between Christ and Belial(devil)? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?

Answer 3

Marry someone who loves you for being you
not someone who demands that you "convert' to a religion you do not know and cannot accept

Give him the boot...and the bonnet
wish him well and may he find a nice Muslim girl from South Asia or the Middle East

Ask him to become a Catholic and submit to baptism and profession of Jesus as Lord and see how he reacts.

Answer 4

you are the right side, while he is totaly wrong. i recommend to end your relationship for the following reasons:

1- he is a muslim by name he doesn't know much about real islam

a) islam doesn't allow a friendship between a man and a woman (the reasons are beyond the scope of the answer)

b) he doesn't have the right to oblige you to leave your religion and revert to islam under any circumstances. reverting to islam is only up to your own well. if he didn't believe that tell him to read the following "There is no compulsion in religion. Verily, the Right Path has become distinct from the wrong path. Whoever disbelieves in Taghut and believes in Allah, then he has grasped the most trustworthy handhold that will never break. And Allah is All-Hearer, All-Knower." Holy Quran 2:256

c) there is no rule in islam that prevents him from marrying you while preserving your own religion. a muslim man can marry jewish, chrestian or muslim women only.

in case you desided to continue the relationship, both of you must be grownup enough to accept his partener's believes. remember that your children have the right to live in an environment free of strugles, especially religious strugles; they are the toughest.

by the way, why don't you talk to one of the chrestian women who reverted to islam to discus her experience. i think it may be useful

Answer 5

He will NEVER respect your beliefs and you shouldn't honor his.

Catholicism and Muslim conflict BIG TIME. My wife knows a woman who is a converted Christian and married a Muslim. The only good thing is they're separated by 8000 miles.

Answer 6

Girl, you know the answer..the only reason you want to ask this question is so you can reassure your self. I am a christian and i wouldn't even be dating someone with such different beliefs because you want to share the feelings of what we believe with your partner. You wont even be happy with a muslim husband they trap you into things if they dont passionately love you (obviously he doesn't) and really make you hate your life!! Dump this dude and be happy and go to heaven!! lol

Answer 7

There are more reasons for giving him the boot, than respect for your religion....did you hear what happened to the Muslim woman that was raped? They were going to give her 100 lashes and put her in jail for six months, for letting 7 men pull her out of a car and rape her....is that the future you want for you and your kids....total disrespect for women and even cruelty towards them? You better think twice about this marriage....or three times.

Answer 8

Give him the boot.
Anyway, a Catholic marrying a Muslim is a bad idea.
It's important that a family has shared values and teach them to their children.

Answer 9

Suzanne,
YOU must make the final choice but I personally believe that you are going to get along better with someone of your own religious beliefs. I expect that another Catholic would be your best choice but at least another Christian. Have a great week and a wonderful Holiday.
Thanks,

Answer 10

Bismillahi Rahmani Rahim - In the Name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful

Hello. Well, if he is a practicing Muslim then he is committing a sin by being in a boyfriend / girlfriend relationship, whether or not this includes actual sexual relations. Islam is keen to protect women and is very strict about relations between men and women. An unrelated man and woman are not allowed to be alone without a chaperone. If he is being alone with you, engaging in acts such as kissing and touching, he is actually disrespecting himself and you. If he does not intend to marry you he should not dally with you. It is a waste of your time and his. Have you heard the phrase "Why buy the cow if the milk is free?"? You are selling yourself short by having dead-end relationship. You best bet is to tell this young man goodbye.

I really do wish the best for you and hope you take an interest in learning about Islam for your sake. I am an American woman who became Muslim about 14 years ago by Allah's grace, and I feel that Islam PROPERLY lived is the best way to live in this life and prepare for the next life. I have listed a link below to a very good site for learning about Islam. Regardless of your situation, you should visit and listen to some lectures and read.

This young man may be a very nice man who is simply suffering from the normal feelings all men have. The solution for him is not to date a woman and perhaps commit fornication, God forbid, but to find someone to marry so that he can have halaal (permissible) marital relations. It is best for a Muslim man to marry another Muslim, because the religious issue ALWAYS causes stress in a marriage, especially since in such a mixed marriage it is required for the children to be raised as Muslims. This is one reason why he says he refuses to have children with you, because he would not want the children raised as Catholics. I don't know if you know, but the biggest sin in Islam is to worship anyone or anything alongside God and we consider that those who believe that Jesus is God or the son of God to be misguided. Don't be insulted - that is just the reality of the differences in the religions. And if you are TRULY a Catholic, why would you want to consider spending the rest of your life with someone who does NOT consider the Trinity to be true?

May Allah guide you to the best in this world and the next. Ameen.

Fi Aman Allah,

Answer 11

If you're not willing to convert, there's no need to continue this relationship. If you break up with him now, it will be easier on you. If you want, you should remain friends with you. He isn't disrespecting his beliefs - he's just respecting his own beliefs. In Islam it is discouraged for a man to marry a Christian woman.
