Hi everyone, Since a year I have been reading more about Islam out of interest and the more I learn about it the more I am interested in it and find it beautiful, I'm soon going to a mosque in my hometown because I want to learn more about it but did not consider converting yet since I wanted to learn more first on my own because I was scared that I wouldn't be welcome. More recently I met a Moroccan woman, and we talked about Islam etc and I asked if I could talk more to her about Islam and we added eachother on whatsapp.. since that time we have talked a lot, like really a lot about anything and everything and we stay up until late at night talking (except for when she goes praying). She's pretty strictly religious and I guess I am blessed to even be able to talk to her , now we are at a point where I feel as if she is the first woman I have actually felt that she respects me and I her and that I can actually have good conversation with.. Often we talk as if we are discussing how to solve cultural differences.. I said I would wait until I feel I can convert because I want to for myself and she said it was the only way she would want it too. Now I never imagined meeting someone accidently somewhere and even stranger a muslim girl.. Also a weird thing we found out is that her birthday is 3 days earlier then mine, I am 3cm taller then her, we both have 3 siblings etc.. she told me the number 3 has some sort of signifigance and after thinking about it it might be true even tough we both don't know what it means to us. I am trying my best to not fall in love completely but it is starting to become too hard, she's the first thing I think about when I wake up and the last thing I think about when I go to sleep, I would not mind being in love but I wanna become a proper muslim and learn enough first because I know it's forbidden for muslim woman to marry a non muslim man.. How should I deal with these feelings? And is it bad if I am in love? I will ofcourse not touch or hold her until we would marry and I am converted. Sorry for the long post and I am not natively english so also excuse my grammar.//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744706.html#msg-8744706 Sat, 06 Jun 2026 22:42:45 +0200 Phorum 5.2.15 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8745010.html#msg-8745010//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8745010.html#msg-8745010 schtroumpf%bricoleur Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 13:42:07 +0200 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744962.html#msg-8744962//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744962.html#msg-8744962 CHN-W Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 12:59:09 +0200 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744836.html#msg-8744836//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744836.html#msg-8744836 NightSky Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 11:35:22 +0200 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744795.html#msg-8744795//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744795.html#msg-8744795 Chel7a-One Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 10:48:43 +0200 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744764.html#msg-8744764//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706-8744764.html#msg-8744764 lalka Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 09:56:44 +0200 //en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706.html//en.yabiladi.com/topics/converting-marriage-44-8744706.html dimab Morocco # English board Sun, 27 Aug 2017 05:39:29 +0200
