For a while now, my girlfriend's been showing an interest in the muslim religion, she was originally an atheist, but now wants to convert to islam.I respect this decision.I am not a muslim myself.I believe in a god and am currently not set on any particular religion.However I realise that the life style change will be enormous for her and would really like to know how exactly it may change our relationship and to understand what it entails.As I also don't want to take any actions which would be against the religion and would like to be aware of any.I was also would like to know if there is any rule against me being with her once she has converted.Thanks

Yes, be prepared to either



A) Stone her mercilessly with jagged gravel



B) Slice off her nose to "teach her a lesson"



C) Spend 18 hours trying to remove her holy bee-keeper suit if you wanna get any.....



Oh wait ... forget it, you are an INFIDEL

As a Muslim i can tell you she may change a lot to the point where she might break up with you. In Islam relationships before marriage is absolutely forbidden, thats if she follows Islam. Even if you were Muslim you still can't be in relationship with her unless marriage. Though she has to choose which path she wants to take. If you really like her or are in love than i hope the best for you both. If you were a Muslim and she was a Christian or Jewish than the marriage is legal under Islam. However a women can only marry a Muslim. Its not hate but there is very important reason. First: A male is obviously man of the house and his kids will obviously choose the father religion when born, the relationship has a huge effect on non Muslim women who seeing their husbands convert when learning Islam and the truth. But a Muslim women marrying a non Muslim and have kids will most likely choose the father side of the religion which is not Islam. This is one the reasons its not allowed. May Allah guide you two to the right path

It will depend on how seriously she takes it, but some little things I picked up when I dated a Muslim man before: 1) If you're left-handed (and I am), try to start eating with your right hand instead, and if you shake hands with someone or give them a gift, give it to them in your right hand--otherwise it can be taken as handing them back luck. Also in private you're supposed to clean your behind with your left hand only because it isn't the hand you should eat with; and the writing thing, well, good luck on that... 2) She will be praying 5 times a day at specific times facing the east, so get used to her needing to find a spot in the house that is in a place she needs it for praying; 3) It wouldn't hurt for you to pick up some Arabic because she'll no doubt be using more of it as a Muslim (it isn't necessary to speak Arabic to be a Muslim, but the Koran is more poetical in Arabic); 4) Brace yourself for Ramadan--fast with her, or don't eat/drink/smoke/consume anything or imply a want to have sex during that time....



There's much more, but those are things that impacted me most when dating a Muslim.

Be prepared for a fights/s. She wants to join a club is all. She can believe in a power higher then herself w/out arguments. The thing is it's not that serious this life we are here to experience & crete.Be true to yourself & all will be well.They help no ones but themselves. Not to mention overpopulation. It's going to be a real problem!T hey don't believe in solutions,only problems.

One true path to spirituality is all that's needed. The rest is labels & nonsense. I been there done that is how I know. If all could walk on Gandhi,Buddha & Dalia lama's path there would be no Qs nor problems in this world..You know God so you are the closes to this knowledge...

Unless you also convert to Islam, you can now kiss your girlfriend goodbye. They are not allowed to date non-muslims.



As for the conversion, who goes from being an atheist to being a muslim? She's just trying to make Daddy mad. I'm sure in a couple of years it will be wicca or something crazy like that.

If she converts then her whole lifestyle will have to change. She won't be able to go out of the house unaccompanied by a man. Having male guests who aren't related to her is strictly out.



Basically, if she does then you should leave. Quickly.



However, before that you should really question her as to why she is abandoning a position of reason for one of non-reason.

Under Islamic law, a muslim woman cannot be with a non-muslim man. However, a muslim man IS allowed to marry a non-muslim woman, as long as she is Jewish or Christian. He cannot marry someone of any other faith, or an athiest.

No sex, petting or kissing before marriage, they will try to convert you or else encourage her to end the relationship, there will be no going in pubs or clubs, no smoking or drinking and if you do get married you will have to have the wedding in a Muslim temple.

Take a look at this website, and also tell your girlfriend about it. You will see the dark side of what is written in the holy book of islam, the quoran and the hadiths, that muslims won´t show you at the begining. I warn you, it is very scary.

Muslim girl, if she converts, she MUST NOT stay with a non Muslim man. Never.



But don't worry. Allah has been showing her the true path of god. ;)

It`s her problem, not yours. If you are being dictated to now, how will it be after marriage.

Hang on to your freedom at all costs...

You must not look at her, or acknowledge her art all, she becomes,in effect, invisible.

Basically, she's telling you to get lost.

Don't take her bacon and eggs for her breakfast in bed.

She won't be allowed to be with you if she does, then you will have to convert and chop off your fourskin and live like a douche.
