Question:
Asalam w Aliqum,
[Private] was in a relation with [private] for 6yrs as husband /wife but not married. Now he is asking me to marry a person of my religion. I cannot hide my past from a new person. I have accepted Islam 6 months ago. I was a Hindu and in the month of April I accepted Islam with my wish. I pray 5 times namaz. His mom was never ready for me as I was a Hindu. But though am converted she is still not ready. Now he is asking to marry some one else which is impossible for me. But their family is against me as they consider marrying a convert is a haram and dont want to see me. Every day I cry; my old poor parents are dying to see me married because they have become old and they want me to be settled. Please tell me a dua which I can do so that his parents accept me and marry me to him and his love increases for me so that we have a beautiful married life.
Can u please ask Shaykh Hisham to pray for my marriage?
Answer:
`Alaykum Salam,
Mawlana Shaykh Hisham is praying for you. It is not permitted to believe
that marrying a convert is haram. It is better for you to look for another match.
