Yes, I Have Converted To Islam & Proud of it: Dipika Kakar - Page 23

Does that mean Dipika lives Shoaib, but Shoaib does not love Dipika?

Man, Christianity follows similar beliefs as Islam (in a way). Technically, a roman catholic cannot marry our side his/her religion too. But it isn't forbidden per se. Plus, you have church registration of marriage and legal registration Church registration is not possible if you're from a different religion. Unless you get special permission forthe Bishop and he grants the same. And your marriage is not valid to the church if you haven't registered. But in my friend circle and knowledge, contrary to popular belief in this forum, I haven't seen a single Catholic boy convert his wife. Though many of my friends have catholics moms who were forced to convert after a point. Heck, people in my own building have done that. One of my closest friends parents are Hindu catholic and have like five kids and haven't changed their religion. Heck, my friends elder brother got married recently. The parents are from different (contradicting sects) of Christianity and they haven't converted. Her brother married a Hindu and they had a white and Hindu wedding.

And I'm guessing they've been living together for almost five years now with his family being with them for almost four.

How is this possible when I just read on wiki that she was married to someone else from 2013 to 2015? 😆 When did these guys hook up cos in that video posted here he says she looks as beautiful 5 yrs ago too. Probably they were colleagues.

No idea about them before reading this thread, so someone plz tell me the timeline of their lovestory.😆

What if the marriage doesn't work, would she go back to being Hindu?
I don't understand if it's true love then why does she have to change? My culture and values are based in my religion and I wouldn't change it for anyone.

you have to accept your partner as he/she is.
the min you come up with ...btw..i will only marry you if you change your religion for me, that's troubling. if you want your partner to change his or her religion for you, then why don't you do the same, dum hai?
but if your partner willingly wants to change his or her religion, then that's fine. changing religion shouldn't be for a show, dil sehh hona chahiye. no point to push someone to change, its like hold a gun on their head. sometimes I found ppl change their religion just to get married, but don't follow it. some even abuse it. what's the point to change ur religion then?
you love me and accept me as I am. you must have understanding and respect of each other, and their religion. no religion is above others.

fasting is out of free will. Most women don't fast these days. And no, hinduism doesn't ask for conversion unlike abrahamic ones that only thrive on conversion

Lol I'm shameless as far as following all Hindu festivals and rituals are concerned. My mom told me did you eat egg on Mahashivratri and Ram Navmi. Living in US and considering work above all these things have made me an atheist 😛 well almost . I forgot not having egg. Mom told ask forgiveness from God he will forgive. It was so simple! I was guilty initially, but a convo with mom made me shameless. 😃

Religion is a far fetched thought I'm not going to change my surname after marriage.

Judaism and Zoroastrians(Paris's) don't convert. You have to be born to it 99% cases. So they don't practice this deleting of a woman's identity nonsense

It's funny to find so many hypocrite voices sing together here. Converting religion for marriage sake is not accepting the person as she/he is, losing identity etc. Yes, I agree. What about changing the surname after marriage?? Since birth till the marriage living with one surname and suddenly changing into husband's isn't losing identity? Is it accepting the woman as she is? Changing of name after marriage happens some castes of Hindus. Come down south, the GSB caste, same caste Deepika Padukone belongs to, woman is renamed on the day of marriage by in-laws. Isn't that losing identity??

P.S: While I agree it's rarest of rare to see non-conversion when marrying a Muslim, I don't agree that same is the case with marrying a Catholic Christian, I am married to one and haven't been asked to convert my religion even once. Have seen many similar cases like me.

@ranikaadi ^ Zoroastrians even don't consider their own girls Parsis anymore when they marry out!! They don't even want them to come to the fire temple. Check some documentaries where they are trying to change it because the numbers r depleting rapidly.

All I'm telling is that some may convert themselves or stuff but a relgion whose majority don't want outsiders to come in isn't gonna actively work on conversion. It's as simple as that which makes is very different to the point of contention discussed in this topic

And this topic isn't about that. It's about erasing a woman's identity post marriage through changing her religion.
