A Muslim woman pregnant with child to a Muslim man, both not married?
There is a Muslim woman 24 years old that is pregnant with a Muslim man, who is 29 years old. The man is born in the United States, she is from India, but originated from Saudi Arabia; she [and her parents] immigrated to the United States a few years ago. The man is willing to accept the child and her if allowed; he is in love with her deeply. She is scared to tell her parents and considering an abortion (the man disagrees, considers it an abomination) to avoid the repercussion from her parents because of the dishonor of trust. They both are not married to anyone, nor each other; both are single. Her parents do not know about their secret intimacy and are very traditional and live by strong Islamic customs. What should she/they do?
According to her parents traditions, they arrange marriages...that is why I am asking! I obviously contain enough logic and common sense to appease such circumstances such as this one, but what is going on between the parents, and this woman and man...I am wondering what would be the right thing to do to not dishonor her parents (as if not dishonored enought)...hard to explain the predicament about what is going on between their custom clash with the western society..I already deleted two similar questions and hadn't gotten any resourceful answers from anyone....the Imam at the local Mosque is out of country for a month and I'm avoiding this woman in deciding an abortion behind this man's back!
If you are not Muslim...then you have no idea what is being involved, when it comes to this situation. I need Muslim's opined statements and more generally, the facts!
Please understand that zina (premarital) is strictly forbidden...now picture yourself facing against a very conservative parents who are very traditionally Muslims! Keep up the good answers please! But I need a precise answer instead of "...just marry her!" It is quite obvious that this must be done...but to approach her parents, these two are seeking prosperous answers.
*zina - premarital sex

In islam you dont need permission from parents to marry.
If you have consent from girl and boy then theres no problem.
If he wants to accept the child - then let him. He cant run away from his child.
But dont abort a child.
You cant kill another life because no ones gonna accept them or have any ties

He also can get a muslim woman pregnant and deny any responsibility, no different there. The truth is he is using the religion according to his needs. I actually feel pity with the women in the mid eastern countries. Men can have mistress (even the religion said-cannot), but their women, cannot even marry foreigner (even tough that man is muslim from another side of the world), let alone man from other religion. (sigh……)

She should either have an abortion, or elope. There's no middle ground here.
Actually, I think it's too late to stay. Everything comes out in the end.

Marry now. If the child is born early then it was premature. Nobody cares after they are married.
