About to marry a Muslim guy, but now no more

Tamanna says: August 7, 2013 at 3:29 pm

I was about to marry a Muslim guy, but after reading this I actually altered my decision. I was researching in Islam when I came across this blog…thank u so much for making me realize what horrible mistake I was going to commit….

And some one just said that Hindus have so many gods…but there are only 3 gods, Brahama ji, Vishnu ji, and Shiv ji….and the mother of everything,..Mahamaya…and gods like Hanumana ji, Krishna ji, Raam ji, Parvati ji, Sita ji are avatars of these 3 gods…

Its not that I hate Islam, I kept all rozas this year, but I fail to understand these following points…I would be highly obliged if someone can throw some light on them….

1. Why is Islam so sex oriented? I mean there is life beyond sex too…eg. women can be beaten if the protest again having sex with any man?

2, why women have to wear burkha and hijaab but not men?

3. Why men can be polygamist and not women?

4. Why Allah does not recognizes any other religion when Hinduism states that every god and every religion is equal?

5. Is qurbaani on bakra is justified? I know Hinduism has the same thing called bali but now its illegal and not practised anymore….but is Allah so happy to see his men killing innocent animals and tear them and eat them????? Heights of cruelty!!!!!!….and to top it,the flesh is also given in charity…..charity of cruelness, brutal, indecent, punishable behavior, that too with innocent animals?????

Today I am so proud to be a Hindu, and I will be till my last breath….
Om Namah Shivaye…..

First of all thank you so much for giving me this wonderful platform where I can express my emotions….

Okay i am a hindu bengali brahmin girl… i was in a relationship with a muslim guy since last 1 year… and in due course of time, I came to know much about islam and muslim people,.. they are not bad at all… but I condemn the teachings….. i was so happy thinking my bf is so supportive… then as time passed by and we actually began to think about the marriage… first he asked me to choose a name. I asked why? He said I need to have a muslim name in order to get married to a muslim guy. I was so happy thinking my bf is so supportive… I asked why? He said I need to have a muslim name in order to get married to a muslim guy. I sternly refused, but he said that is indispensable. I somehow, out of love , or out of madness agreed to do so… plz dnt yell on me now.

After that, ramzaan came, he asked me to keep roza. I asked my pandit ji if I can… he said all gods are same. We, all human beings have same deatinations, though the paths may be different. Panditji said our religion recognises and respects all gods and all other religions. He said if you believe in raam ji, believe in allah and believe in jesus as well. So, I started keeping rozas, with proper sehri, iftaari, and reciting duas… but next whatever happened took off my belief from islam… nd I was heartbroken.

It was his bday, 22nd july, and I wanted to go to a temple and pray for his better future,..when I asked him to come along with me, he refused and also asked me not to go, and why? Because I kept roza, so I cant. He said now you cannot worship your gods. You just have to accept allah and nobody else….I completely refused. I went to the temple , but continued with the roza. May be I am wrong, but this is not done, just not done… he respects my religion. He visited mahalaxmi temple in mumbai with me. Then just because I believe in allah, dat dosent means I disbelieve ram ji…

And yes, he celebrated diwali with me last year… he accompanied me to mahalaxmi temple in mumbai…, though he didnt knew how to do puja but he bowed his head and atleast stepped into the temple., but I wont allowed to do so after marriage… I love him, but the fact ia that I knw, his parents would never accept me as a hindu, and I cant change myself to win his love,,.love has no religion, If I can accept him as a muslim, why can he?????

Tamanna,
You have wasted a year, not your life. You have timely came to this site. We have here 10,000 comments and 400 post on exact same subject matter… pluralism verses exclusivism.

You pundit is misguiding people by saying, “he said all gods are same. We, all human beings have the same destination, though the paths may be different.” All religions are NOT SAME. If you are not convince, go read the Torah, Bible and Koran. These books are full of hate for other faiths, including for each others.

In his mind (and in most Muslims’s mind), the message is clear, only Allah and Mohammad and no third person or God (no Ram, Krishna, Laxmi devi, Jesus, Buddha, Mahavir, etc). Satyen would say accept Allah (like your Pandit said) but keep the Muhammad out!

To keep the message short, please read the Hindu girl article. Go tell your bf that you believe in Interfaith Marriage with Equality and will produce Hind-Muslim children, but there will not be any labeling on children (NO BBS). Best, ask him to join us, like Kaveri did. We hope to hear from you both. -Admin

Hi kaveri….

Dear, I can very well understand ur pain and grief…..m going through the same phase so I knw better…..but hopefully, time will heal up most of our pains….

Regarding quran, most muslim people read quran in urdu or arbi, but not in english….so most of them do not know what the phrases actually means….like my bf….now ex-bf ….so ask him to read it out 4 u…and since quran is too long, specifically ask him to read the chapter… al-nisa and al-baqarah….these contains mostly of women oppression and dominance,..so, hopefully he will get a better idea what the book actually says…..and after physically reading it, if he tends to agree with those points, or tries to defend it as my bf used to do.(he used to say it is all wrong written in the english translated Quran)….

So all the best kaveri…may god bless you….nd give u strength to deal with the odds in life….smile….smile for urself and ur family….tc of urself….do tell us what happened next,…ciao…. -Tamanna

Hello admin (question: before and after difference?)…

We didnt initially shared our thoughts regarding the rules and regulations of our alliance. But gradually we discussed and what happened at the end was completely opposite

1. I dont need to change my name… he said dat initially, but after 2 months, he said I have to for the sake of his parents.

2. I dont need to change my religion…when I used to ask this initially, he used to say, I want to you they way you are, you need not convert yourself…, after couple of months, he said I need to convert otherwise, his parents would not approve of thos marriage..

3. He said initially that I can be financially independent, and carry on with my job, even after marriage, but when the marriage talks got serious, he simply said, why do you need to earn, when I am there,… anyhow, my parents would not approve you to be working…..I was devastated.

4. He asked me not to get so serious about my studies, because he is just a graduate, and I am a double graduate, with a diploma in public relations from new york, and I wanted to go for MBA, and he asked me not to….I absolutely cant stay illiterate for his sake…and I love studying……. Tamanna

And admin, regarding me and nadeem, we have come to a conclusion of having an interfaith marriage…no converaion, no tagging of children….I dont know what future holds for me, but atleast, we both are trying to accept each other for what we are, not for the fact that who we are….

Nevertheless, thank you so much admin, for holding on to me…and asking me to come back….thank you….for making me feel like a family…, loads of good wishes to all… Tamanna
