i am new to this so i appologise if i do or say anything wrong.

Firstly i am pakistani and the man i want to marry is bengali..... we are both nearly 30 and have been togehter for over 5 years. we wanted to get married for a long time but our parents will not accept as they do not like him or the family mainly cus they are bengali and i now this is haram in islam.

Howver 2 years ago his family did come to ask for my hand it was decided to get married in 6 months time and money was exchanged and asian sweets. Then as time went by his mum changed her mind and so did my family we would both argue with our families to accept but they woudnt then we decided to leave it..

then recently my parents and his told us if we want to marry esch other then to pak our bags and get out....so i decided last night to do istakhara..

then later that night i saw then person i want to marry he looked very young and was smiling and was wearing white shirwani and white hat and it looked liek we were getting married ..i am sure it was me with him but cant say for sure....
