<p>If you’re Muslim, why in the WORLD are you dating? Wouldn’t she respect you and your religion enough to understand that, as a Muslim, you don’t date? Why are you even thinking about this now? I mean, isn’t school more important.
“I’ve heard Muslim men can marry Christian/Jewish women (even if they don’t convert) as long as the children are raised Muslim, but Muslim women can only marry other Muslims (including converts since they’re Muslims too) since Islam is passed through the father, not mother.”
@Alix2012: Muslim men can marry Christian/Jewish women, but it isn’t solely because Islam is passed through the father. Muslim women marrying non-Muslim men might pose various pressures on the Muslim wife, due to the differences, and, in this culture, the husband being ‘more in charge’.</p>
