I was wondering if anyone can give ther opinion on this situation, I know about what Allah says about relationships, but I was simply wondering on others opinions from people who are muslims and believe in Allah.I have been seeing a guy for nearly 7 months now and we really care about each other. However, I am chritian and he is muslim which means his parents are unaware of us being together. I can't just end the relationship just because we are from different religions; you can't help who you fall in love with. However, I do feel guilty knowing he shoudn't be with me?

Salam/Peace,
 
A muslim man can marry a Christian woman. It's OK. So you no need to worry.

Yes, it is true that a muslim man can marry a Christian woman. BUt really, should a muslim man be having a sexual relationship outside marriage? Afraid to say the answer is no.

Thankyou, for both of your answers I didnt realise he could be with a christian girl... I know he shouldn't have a sexual relationship but I am not making him, and if he said to me he didn't want too then I would respect that. But thankyou all for being honest.

You're most welcome Trigger.

I hope it works out for you. Just one more pointer for you. A good muslim man will not have sex before marriage. So ask yourself if he is respecting you at all. Sex outside of marriage for muslim men does happen a lot, and many non-muslim girls are left hurt when the man marries a virgin muslim girl. Just be aware of that. Take care of yourself. ANd trust your instincts and keep enquiring her or from other reliable sources.

Hugs xx

Awhh thankyou, I wasn't expecting everyone to be as understanding about the situation Yeh I understand about the sex thing, and I do get confused about that because he does keep to most of the other practices like ramadan and he's really strict with that....Thanks for the pointer I am aware of that, but I think i'm just going to enjoy being with him and see what happens in the future because he really does look after meeven when i'm stroppy hehe Thankyou again I hope you understand I do appreciate this. x
