Islam is in mercy and love If your neighbors happen to be non-Muslim you must not forget Islamic manners in dealing with neighbors. The recommendation of Islam for good relationship with neighbors is for Muslims and non-Muslims alike. so what we going to say about the wife the heart of husband dont be mad or upset be smart all u need to do u remind him how

the Prophet (SAWS) was and everything can be fixed with time u just be good wife and good mam

wish for u all the best

Anyone who chooses religion before love should be divorced. Find someone who will put you first, above EVERYTHING, including their religion. If he wants to end it, tell him you want out, as well, as he's taking his religion too far when he sacrifices his duties as a loving husband. That's very shallow on his part. He chose his path, let him take it, and be glad you're not part of his fanaticizism. Religious beliefs are meant to teach love, not distort it, but unfortunately this guy's one of millions that are using it to massage their egos, twisting principles and doctrines in the process. This is why translations are sadly being changed year after year, in every belief. One person decides it should change, and others follow suit without caring about the consequences.

Well I am not a muslim and my husband is. we also have a 5 year old whom we raise as muslim (as in no pork for her,islamic name) anyway i have never been under any pressure to convert.you should remind him that a muslim man can marry anyone from a semitic religion (jewish or christian) so what is his problem? he shouldnt have married you in the first place if he cannot handle it. sometimes it is not an issue of religion, it is more like an issue of a controlling man.

softtouchmale2003 agony auntObviously he's fallen out of love with you and in love with Islam. Just get a divorce and find someone else who is not so brainwashed as to believe that YOU must believe in whatever he's just adopted as his new faith.

I've seen this happen with Catholics and Southern Fried Baptists. One goes totally religious nuts-o and insists that the other convert or else.

Brainwashing. Total mind control.

Get out now before he does something violent or crazy or both.

janniepeg agony auntUsually I believe in freedom of religion. Your husband does seem like a "it's my way of the highway" kind of guy. If he is a good man, a good provider, I would just suck it up. I could forgo pork and short sleeves for the man and children I love. I kind of like the idea of protecting my skin under that scorging sun. It keeps the wrinkles and freckles away. Remember, devotion frees. You only get one life to experience this or that culture.
