Question:
Assalamu Alaykum,
I’m 2_ years old and currently courting a 2_ year old boy. I have a son with this boy. I really love this boy a lot, and I want to marry him real badly Insha’Allah. Unfortunately he is Catholic,and I would love for him to revert to Islam,but I’m uncertain if he would.It’s no use asking him.I don’t know what to do…I feel very heartbroken. Mostly with the fact that this is the person I want to share Islam with and marry him Insha’Allah. And I know my parents would be happy with this. And I would never convert to Catholicism because I love Islam too much. What do I do?
Jazaaka’Allah
Answer:
Alaykum Salam,
Zina (fornication) was a big mistake but you can make it right by stopping and repenting. Take care of the baby and rebuild your life on a strong basis. If the father truly loves you he must marry you and accept the precondition of being Muslim. Otherwise move on. Recite Ya Haadi, Ya Nur (O Guide, O Light) daily x100-1000.
