    Default Re: Would you change your religious belief to marry the person that you love??


    I had the same answer as Miss Philippines and I was adamant about staying Catholic but you never know down the road you might change your mind just as I did.

    Alhamudulillah, God made it easy. I fell in love with the religion and I fell even more in love with the man as it made me understand him more about why he is how he is and why I love him so much.

    If two ppl really love each other, then they should do what's the absolute best for BOTH of them. So in my opinion, not changing religion can be a bit selfish. My fiance may have been fine with me staying Catholic but I wouldn't be able to deal with his true feelings knowing that ultimately changing my religion (Catholic to Islam) wouldn't hurt anyone.

    I had never imagined the joy on his face the moment I said my Shahadah (testimony of faith) and from that moment I knew that we're going to have a well balanced, beautiful life full of love, respect and strength.

    Religion has nothing to do with Love.
    I can consider culture, and if religion is considered as culture.
    Still I will not change anything.

    The first fact about Love is to accept the one you loved for what and who he/she is.

    Love is all about John Lennon.

    No, kay dili man ko pakasal, kay marriage is just another religious practice as what they say sa papel ra na it has nothing to do with love.

    let's twist the story

    what if the girl wants the boy to be converted to catholic?

    I once heard a news from Minglanilla, a girl was shot dead. (wala katiwas ug kaon, naa pay mumho intawn sa baba.)

    Ang rason daw, she wanted to marry a guy outside from their religion.

    But I don't blame religion.

    No, but then again, I don't really have a religion.

    no. i don't need to change my religion and my partner can also do the same thing. in these modern times, religion is not necessary as long as you believe that there is God. it all boils down to respect since we have our own individualities even before we've met our partners and i believe that our own beliefs and set of principles contribute largely to our individuality. aychengkyuu bow!

    There are still some interfaith couples who are married (Christian man and Muslim woman..and my best friend who's Muslim is marrying a Christian). Somehow, they can still make it work. It's just sad that in your example story that such a thing happened. Bad people not following their religion properly I guess.

    However, it is true, a Muslim woman is forbidden from a non-Muslim as he only believes in his prophet while Muslims believe in all of them (peace and blessings be upon them). Say the woman wants to teach her kids to love and respect all prophets but the husband disagrees and stops her from raising them the Islamic way. This may lead to marital problems.

    The husband is the head of the household so he is more likely to teach his children about his religion. There are haram (forbidden) things for example: drinking alcohol. A Muslim woman doesn't want to see this and she especially wouldn't want her children to be around it.

    As women, we may feel submissive towards our husbands (not in the bad sort of way). I went to marriage class with my fiance last night. The Imam said men and women are created equal but with natural differences (in our make up/characteristics). Men were created to have more physical strength while women were created to be the softer one and so the man's role is to protect his wife. So there lies a risk of a woman following her own religion, whatever it may be.
