Dear Sara, I'm from the same country, so I know what you are talking about.\nI don't think your personal religion is something related to others, as you know there is a rule in Islam which says "La Ekraah Fi Din" or "there is no force in accepting Islam".\nAnd you shouldn't tattoo your religion on your forehead, so you can buy a bible and read it if you are interested and talk to a pastor or a priest(There are some churches in your country, I can give you the adresses)\nNo one will kill you or your family, as you may know killing part is only for becoming Pagan 'Mortad' and becoming a christian doesn't mean you are 'Mortad', the only one who I know that being announced to be 'Mortad' is "Salman Roshdi" who has published a book agianst Islam and even he is still alive.\nAnyways don't be that strict, we have freedom of speech, we have transexual sergury, we can change our religions...\nI know many people who became Buhdist and no one killed them or their families.\nI have seen some real anti regim people but they are not as afraid as you and no one have ever harmed their families,  don't worry and try to broaden your political view.

Simple version: no.\nVersion with an explanation: No, for many reasons. The first one, though, is that God said not to do it. God tells Christians not to be yoked with non-Christians. There are many reasons for this:\n-Where will you go to church?\n-Will the muslim want to tithe to the Christian church?\n-what will the children learn as the true religion?\n-What will they think when they find out that their mom is not saved, and what will they think of that?\n-What will the children think when they read that muslims should kill all Christians?\n-How will it feel for the CHristian to have sex with the muslim- knowing that the muslim is going to hell?\n\nWhen people say that "nothing can stand in the way of love" that really bothers me. That is like saying, 'I have an earthly love for this muslim. I know that it isn't God's plan for me to marry them until they are a born again Chrstian, but I really think that our love knows more than the Master of the Universe.' There will be trial after trial in this relationship. \n\nIt may seem hard to hear that this person isn't God's plan for you. God sees such a bigger picture than what we can at this time. He knows best. Our lives will go better if we just listen to what He tells us. You are going to have to stop dating this muslim girl. You don't want to lead her on. If she is truly born again at a later time, then you can see if you want to start dating her again. \n\n I have already been praying for you.

what are the contradictory answers that you have notices.. Quran is very clear. \n\nYes if he/she wishes to rejoin islam, he/she can joins it.. but with sincere repentance ,, becuase it was a grevious sin which he&#92;she did. \nthese verses will be helpful regarding this question\n\n\n "Again and again will those who disbelieve, wish that they had bowed (to God's will) in Islam.   Leave them alone, to enjoy (the good things of this life) and to please themselves: let (false) hope amuse them: soon will knowledge (undeceive them)."\nNoble Verses 15:2-3\n\n\nNoble Verse 3:90 "But those who reject faith after they accepted it, and then go on adding to their defiance of faith never will their repentance be accepted; for they are those who have (of set purpose) gone astray."  \n\nThere is no compulsion in the religion; Truth stands out clear from error; so whoso disbelieves in idols and believes in God, has laid hold of the most firm handle, which cannot break; and God is Hearing, Knowing.\nAl-Quran (2:256)\n\n\n\n"Say: "O my Servants who have excessively wronged their own souls, despair not of God's Mercy: for God forgives all sins for He is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.\nTurn to your Lord (for forgiveness) and bow to His (Will), before the Penalty comes on you: after that you shall not be helped." ( Quran 39:53-54.)\n \n\nHOPE THIS ANSWERS.. AND YA.. PLEASE REFER TO A PERSON WHO HAS KNOWLEDGE ABOUT ISLAM, THERE IS NO CONTRADICTORY ANSWERS.. OR IF YOU HAVE ANY..POST IN THIS QUESTION,, WE WILL TRY OUR BEST TO ANSWER IT FROM QURANIC VERSES. \n\nPEACE BE ON YOU

if your talking about mutah marriage or urfy marriage that's a new thing,,,,but it's against Islam but some people do it anyways...it is where 2 people get married with out anyone knowing and with out paying a dowry...it had become popular in some countries like Egypt and Iran but it is not allowed in Islam.....by the way Iran is a Shiya Muslim Country and Shiya Muslims are not considered Muslims....they are different....

OK This question is truely for me..I have been through this. First: the dilemma of age and religion are two different things. Age is just a number, decied if you can live with yours. Where religion is concerned, I am a Muslim who married a Catholic. We both kept our religions. From the get go, we decieded on the perspective kids's faith, which was to be Catholic. I didn't care about forcing Islam on anyone, so the decision was easy. We kept religion totally our of our religion so far. She goes to church or not, not my problem. I go to mosque or not, not her problem. We celeberate all religious holidays and don't take carp from any reltaive and friends when it comes to our differences of religion. They don't like it, screw them !! There you go..Hope this helps. Feel free to contact me. I will luv to chat with you.  Jimmy

Turkey doesn't allow freedom of religious expression or association. To join the EU they would have to agree to abide by the EU charter which mandates such freedom. Article 301 basically makes it illegal to convert from Islam to another faith.

But the most important thing of all is that " DO CHRISTIANS STILL PRACTICE IT?" After Jesus, the New Testament came that's why you see Christian the way they are now. You are juggling the OT with the NT that's why it becomes MT.  But I believe it is still accepted and being practiced in other religions. Research IRAN. You don't have to necessarily know others but if you really want to, expand your research.

I am a Muslim myself and it would be nice if I could turn a non-believer into a believer, but if you turn an atheist into a believer by force then you have achieved nothing. One has to believe in God from the heart not because they are pressured. You even said once yourself that the Quran states not demands. Maybe one day they will learn, but let there not be a wall between people for we are all humans and of Allah's creation.

She is not, I am Muslim and I can say that. maybe she really loves you but your relationship seems impossible. in our book male Muslim can marry Christian,Muslim and Jew woman, but female Muslim can't marry but Muslim man. so she is probably if she told her family they would prevent her from seeing you at all. so she keeps finding excuses to be with you as long as possible. talk to her outright and tell her what I just wrote and she can't deny! good luck.

The ruling system that emanates from Islam is neither theocratic nor republic. It's unique; Islam is not being implemented in it's totality anywhere in the world. The misconception is that countries such as Saudia Arabia and Iran can be considered Islamic states, however, that is not the case. Furthermore, the Islamic state permits it's citizens to practice other religions, in contrast, to what was just conveyed earlier by the other person. If your intention is to attain a better grasp of the ruling system under Islam then I recommend the book that I inputed under the heading "Source(s)" in the bottom. I hope I was to some avail in respect to your inquiry.

Zoroastrian faith can't be practiced as once it was, simply because most of its Scriptures were destroyed by the rise of Arab rulers claiming Islam must be the only faith, destroyed much of its history before 1000AD. So we simply can't know more than a few pieces which don't make sense by themselves. In sum, most practice today is based on speculation of what was lost, and this varies from group to group according to how it has been passed down.

hello David\n\nI feel that you want to be liked and accepted as an Iranian citizen and as a person. You want to prove that your country is wonderful, modern and  peaceful. Also that your religion is peace loving and accepting of other views.   Right now there is a war, and people are very prejudiced.   Take it easy, go with the flow and enjoy the experience of YA.\nYou are very young, 2 years older than my own son.  Life is so long and filled with twists and turns.  Who knows what will happen in the future?\n\ngood luck, take it easy and \nDios te bendiga
