First of all i'm a muslim , He should not be drinking, and i really hope he's not a virgin because he was married before... Because the things you mentioned are a no-no in islam, and he's not taking his religion seriously. Other than that he's forced to treat you good if he marries you, he's not allowed to hit you, and i'm sorry for saying this but anal sex is forbidden too oh and he can't do anything to you unless you approve to it
True.. Those are prohibited in Islam
As an Infidel, I find it darkly amusing when I am in a coffee shop that is next to the bar at the airport here on the Gold Coast (Australia).
When Arab tourists arrive, it is common for the man to park his veiled wife and offspring outside the bar and then disappear into the den of haram liquor.
The strip clubs and brothels of the Gold Coast are patronised well by the same Arab tourists.
I also find it darkly amusing that by personal preference my diet, (non) drinking habits and current view of sexual morality are closer to halal than many of the Muslims whom I have seen here in Australia.
It seems to me that all that stands between many Muslims and haram behaviour is opportunity.
Save yourself girl. Please. I have dated 2 Muslims. I am telling you horrible experience. They emphasise on marriage kids. They just wanna make you muslim. Save yourself save yourself. They are just so bad people & bad religion.
you are stereotyping. That's like saying all kids who listen to Marilyn Manson get picked on and end up shooting up their high school. You don't even know him. What if he saved her life? Would you say he deserves a chance then?
@abarker That's a crazy what if. Not very nice of you to ignore her lived experience.
That most likely he'll play with you for a while but he'll marry a Muslim woman to appease his family.
I dated a Muslim guy once. He was an arrogant asshole who acted like he was better than everyone else. Now he is in an arranged marriage, lol. FYI, his parents will probably disapprove of you if they are strict Muslims.
Was his name osama bin laden
No, but close enough, haha
One day he'll beat the crap out of you for talking back at him. They're EXTREMELY arrogant. He'll bury you in a hole and STONE you!! He'll rape you because he was horny and you only exist as a sexual object to him. You're only worth is that of a half of a man. They guys are SAVAGES!! They literally live in the 15th Century.
lol..
Honesty. Muslims that respect their religion really are good future partners and maybe future husbands. They really do respect woman unlike that bias news that everyone hears. I think you should leave.
Thank you for saying the truth. Islam is the only religion that respects the woman as she truly deserves, in our religion making your wife happy and satisfied is immensely rewarding and obligatory, respecting her needs and thoughts is a natural thing within the relationship, and I think a lot of muslims in foreign countries do not follow the religion, only by name though
Yeah. I've have many Muslim friends and they really treat people well
Muslim here. Now i really want to joke about this one but I'll try to be mature. He is serious about you. As for what you should know. He will speak of islam to try and explain it and what things mean. And ofcourse he doesn't understand everything in islam so he does only what he understands. Give it a try.
Study their culture. They change 360 c once you marry them.
Oh honey this might be hard for you to hear... The Bible says not to get 'unevenly yoked'. Means essentially means you need to be in a relationship with someone with the same beliefs as you. A relationship is hard enough to navigate as it is without differing belief systems
@cth96190 It's true. There are a lot of people who claim to be Muslim but in action do the exact opposite of the teachings of Islam. World is full of hypocrites.
I appreciate your views of life mate 👍
Ask him if he is married. You never know. Muslims can marry up to 4 wives.
Well, a good place to start is where does he or his family come from. Islam varies considerably depending on culture. Muslim from Albania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Palestine, Iran, India, Indonesia etc. are quite different.
Well there's no shame in giving it a try. Just ask him what he does and doesn’t do. Does he eat meat? Or only halal meat? Does he pray 5 times a day?
Only thing i worry about for you is his family not liking you and wanting you to convert.
That it's all fun and romance until your married. Once married you do as your told.
oh dear , just don't , he will lie to you to think that the sharia law is the right way to live and i know you will believe him i know islam, after that you will regret and realise it was the mistake of your fucking life , you dont know how split islam and sharia law is, look at muslims how they kill ech other do you think they do it for sport?
if you dont belive me go ahead and marrie him.
Once you date a muslim you can't go back, because they might kill you for leaving them. It's happened.
You mention Sharia law, but the OP said that this particular Muslim man isn't a virgin. He's strict about everything except for healthy sex and moderate drinking, but doesn't sharia law only apply to sex? I could be wrong, but if he has had sex before it would be painfully hypocritical of him to support Sharia law.
@Love_Byte
Do you think many of these people care about being hypocrites?
Im an ex muslim and i approve that !!! muslim men can do whatever they please. but will dictate their women. bad deal !!!
@Love_Byte sharia law apply to everything even how to enter the toilet, and yes he could be drinking and having sex with multiple girls and support sharia law that's how muslims think , because he thinks that it is good thing ,
did you know muslims vote for islam sharia law in there countries and want to live in infidels country so bad?
and that man could flip in one day and be jihadist if he found the right imam , i know how powerful islam words is
I don't think he knows himself. He doesn't seem emotionally stable since he's contradicting his so called beliefs.
I knew a Muslim guy in my apt building who was rebellious. He drank and even ate pork. He sure was attractive but I remember him and his girlfriend would always argue. But she was more religious than him, she was Muslim.
He's probably a hypocrite. He would try to put his beliefs on you and try to convert you to Islam. He would do many things that are prohibited in Islam but if you do them he will stop you and beat you up. Don't go too fast. Stay your ground on being an atheist or whatever you are.
As an Ex- muslim !!! I dont think its a good idea on the long run.
muslim men tend to have double standards regarding cultural differences.
Even if he drink or have sex... I know a lot of muslims when they try to settle down they will dictate their women as form of repenting !!!
Thats why I left islam for me cause you can't have it both... there will be a double standards there.
Anyway Do what you want... Thats just my opinion.
Ex muslim is common lie these days get creative
@Mrzero001 I know you are triggered now !!! lol get fucked.
Grow up
@Mrzero001 Shhhh go home.
They are typically very traditional to be honest Islam is one of the few places women are still expected to basically do as their told if you expect him or his parents or friends to treat you as an equal I would say that is unlikely
I would just say that Kindly look closely in him and judge that He ain't a Hypocrite & after long term or like marriage he won't force or implement things on you and Yes the Foremost thing that he ain't an extremist or else you'll be ruined.
Best of Luck For Your Future!
