    Dear friend,

    I think you need to be very careful here - I don't think you really understand the challenges await you. You know the guy more or less as a friend, the external views - he is definitely a different man when you start living with him, as he was born and brought up in totally different background. Accepting him at that stage could be much for difficult than what you think now. Not sure how old you guys are ? Do wait for time, understand the difference, do some research on Islam, and see how much you could adapt yourself to it. It is indeed a big challenge. Marriage within the same religion / caste demands lots of sacrifices, compromises & adjustments and when it is a inter-religious, the challenges are multi-fold. So, I find it hard to recommend this, without knowing how prepared you are personally to take up this.

    Think well, have serious thoughts, take a wise choice. All the best. God bless.

    Hey Nita,

    I have many Muslim friends. But I would strongly recommend not getting into a relationship with one if you are Hindu. Your family will never treat you the same, and his family will never accept you fully.

    You may ruin your whole life and families life by going further. Also you would have to convert to a very strict religion. My wife is Hindu, so i know your culture very well, and Islam and Hinduism are worlds apart.e You celebrate life, and enjoy, they are too concerned on punishment in the future.

    Please read stories on-line of people marrying Muslim guys, and try and learn from the many mistakes.

    Hope it helps, and sorry if its harsh, just its a shame to loose all ties with your family.

    regards

    Ant

    Foolish girl, you are victim of love jihad, hindu wombs producing muslim babies

    If you marry a muslim, your siblings and cousins cant get an arranged marriage done

    and consider this bad effect against your hormones

    Didnt your family teach you to stay away from muslims

    If he really loves you ask him to convert to hinduism by Arya Samaj shudhi, why should you be the one to convert

    One sided love can not give the suitable fruit.If He is in true love y he prevents him self to convert in Your Cast.

    The cunning nature may hurt u in future.Love does not see any things but it must be from both side.

    Age factor works v can not say it is love or opposite sex attraction.

    Stay some time and watch what feeling u have.

    What is there bodily,or mentally if it works it is 100% that it is not the love.

    Heart breath and soul dissolve in beloved That is Love.It happens but can not do.

    Dear Anita,

    U r doing this because of your age and inexperience.

    The culture of Muslims are highly different than any other religion. They are very conservative and disrespect the other religions. They treat women as sex slaves and they do not respect women. They use their women as child bearing machines. They do not give minimum liberty to women.

    Without knowing anything about their religion in detail, u r in a hurry to commit suicide. U will face horrible problems if u join their religion.

    Do not blame your family for your bad decision.

    Be careful and think 100 times before joining the Hell on Earth.

    Because they afraid you are not love with them anymore..There is no doubt it would be a hard sell, what with the constant media bashing and of course bad PR on the part of some Muslims...Maybe that's why...

    Study Islam and decide, learn all about it, and decide whether this is God's true religion or not, first God, then second you can decide to marry the man or not:

    This is a channel at times debates between Hindus, Muslims and Christians:

    Just pray to Almighty Allah to set things right for you and have patience. Allah has told us in the Holy Quran to take the help of Prayers and Patience in tough times. So pray sincerely and ask Allah and wait patiently for the results.
