Question:
Assalamualaikum Shaykh,
I am now engaged with a man from an Europe country for a year, and Inshallah we are going to get married within this year, We live in our own country and communicate through email and chat/web cam because of the distance. He has been coming home (being a muslim) for 6 years, Alhamdulilah.
But the thing I am still sad is when we have an argument, he always uses the word “Jesus!!” to express his emotion/his dislike etc. It’s just like when we say “Astaghfirullah, or “Ya Allah”.
Please advise me Shaykh, what should I do when i hear the word coming from him, because he is now muslim, I expect he can say Allah because at times when he is in good mood, he will say Allah.
Jazakallah for the answer that will be given,
Assalamualaikum
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Alhamdulillah if this is his only “crime” then you are very lucky. Have patience as he is a “baby” Muslim. Rather look at your own faults, make istighfar 300x daily and ask Allah to keep you both together in love and harmony after marriage.
