He did nikah, how can I confirm this?
Assalaamoualaikoum.
I'm Xenia, I love a boy for the past 1 year. I've heard that he isn't married legally according to law (civil marriage) but did nikah. I would like to know how I can confirm this. If there is a book kept for nikahs same as civil marriage.
please help me. I'm very worried.
Thanks

Babygirl,
You have not given much detail about your situation, but from what you say, I can only assume that you are in a relationship with a man who claims to be married. There is no single book which holds all records of nikahs, each Imam who conducts a nikah ceremony probably has a record with the masjid/mosque that he is affiliated with. And since this information is confidential, I doubt very much that anyone would have open access to it.
If this man claims to have had a nikah done, this means he is married with another woman. So why are you in the picture? This situation could potentially become a very messy one and I would advise you to get out of it and make a fresh start. The mere fact that you feel the need to verify whether this man is married or not, and you do not trust what he is telling you, shows me that your relationship with him is not a healthy one at all.
Remove yourself from this confused relationship. Let this man get on with his married life. Don't fall for empty 'romantic' words. Find a man whom you can trust.

Hi ,i am in relationship with a muslim guy since 2 yrs.This year 6mths back he went to his country saying that he will get engagaed to me and do Nikah to me and refuse to get engaged to Paki girl which his family wanted.
He came back to me after one month after getting engaged and doing Nikah to the same girl,saying his family pressurised him to do.Now when I told him that its over between us he says he cannot live without me and I am everything to him. and still continuing to stay with me.
He also says he is going to take me to Pakistan end that engagement & nikah with that girl and do engagement and Nikah with me.I dont know how much to trust him.
Is it easy to end engagement and Nikah so easily.??
Suvarna, he's lying to you to keep his relationship with you going a little longer. If he did nikah with the other girl then he is married, not only engaged. He's using you for companionship while he's away from his wife.

I m a muslim girl and I love a Hindu man.. He s ready to accept islam completely. We both want to get married by doing nikah, but no one is ready to do our nikah. As my parents are not ready for ds marriage. Is there someone who can help with nikah???
Salaams,
If he wants to convert, let him convert. I wouldn't marry him right after he does so, if I were you. Let him practice for a while, maybe a year or so, and see if you still want to continue forward with the marriage at that time. If you have further questions, please log in and submit them as a separate post and we will answer it in turn in shaa Allah.
