Hi all. I live in a country which still sees different religion in a relationship as an issue. I'm a Moslem and I have a boyfriend who is Catholic, luckily we have no problem with that. However, there is a rule (unwritten one) about couples with different religion cannot get married. As a result, many couples decided to get married in other countries. Silly rule isn't it? Well.. What do you think? Is it really a problem to you?

Of course.It's problem.I am moslem too and I know in Moslem faith,there is no licensed marriage in different faith.You can read it in Qur'an.I am sorry,but I think there is reason for every rule.surely, you will face different views,different vision,especially for principle things.Something that is not allowed in Islam, maybe it's allowed for him.someday, how about your kids.The important, maybe there is no problem here,in the world but do you believe the hereafter? There is no problem with human but how about your God?.Once again,forgive me but if you don't agree with this,just ignore it.There is no force in our religion.
