How to convince my Christian wife to accept Islam?

I am Sunni Muslim from India. In the year 2008 April I married to Baptist Christian girl secretly in Mosque without informing our family members in presence of an Imam and my friends as witness and wakil according to the Islamic Law with the girl’s wish. From that time (previously also my wife’s mother used to force and fight with her about Christian religion why she change all those things, but she never reacted that much) after meeting with these two people she changed completely and told me that she did wrong by changing her religion and she don’t want to continue. I don’t want my children to become confused of Islam and I want my children and wife to be as Muslim and to follow the Sunnah, Ahadees, Quran as a perfect Muslim do.

I got khula from court against my husband but my family is forcing me to live with him. Is my khula valid?

I got married in march 2007 to my maternal cousin. This was a forced marriage as I didn’t want to get married. But my parents emotionally blackmailed me, my husband, his mother and my mother promised me that he won’t demand any physical relation until I complete my education. I agreed on this base. I was abused sexually, physically and psychologically by my husband and my parents. I asked my husband to divorce me but he refused. Before seeking khula I spoke to my husband and told him that I cannot fulfill his sexual needs as hatred fills within me whenever I see him and all the issues between us and requested him to divorce me.

I am heartbroken, overwhelmed and ashamed for what I did. Please help me I want my fiance back

I was engaged to a brother. We had the right intentions and were doing things in the correct way. No private contact, no private meetings. The first time we met alone, we both tried to get a third party but were unable to, and I was leaving the city so we ended up meeting alone.

My friend is in not happy with his future in-laws as they don’t allow both to talk or see each other.

My friend saw her at a wedding a couple of years ago and wanted to get to know her more, so he messaged her on facebook, at first she was really rude to him since she doesn’t talk to a lot of guys, but after she got to know him they became friends on facebook, for almost 2 years they just talked online and after they started to get emotionally attached (online) my friend told her that he likes her and that he wanted to meet her parents to ask for her hand in marriage and if that would be ok with her? she agreed and she told her mom about my friend, and then her parents invited my friend to their house. Any ways, my friend did an istikhara and it was positive, his parents did istikharas and they were positive and even I did an istikhara for them and it was positive, and to my knowledge we are only supposed to do an istikahra upto 7 times and then trust it and not doubt Allah swt first guidance, why are these people doing it again and again and again for the same thing?

Am I right to suspect that my wife is under the influence of black magic?

I got married in 2008 in UK and my wife asked me to leave my mother who lives in Pakistan. My wonderful wife who supported me in all hard times started behaving differently. She ran away from house and ended up in women refuge (via British embassy). Someone in our family introduced her to a pious sheikh; who told her that she is under great black magic, and the problem she got is not a medical one and we should have contacted him before operation.

Father abusive behaviour toward family and difficulty in finding a decent proposal for sister.

My mother is not given her right to say anything in major issues of family and part of the reason of my sister not getting married is the interference from my aunts (father’s sisters). The reason is that my aunt wants to give her daughter to my brother. She probably views my sister as a thorn in her daughter’s side.

Getting married but living apart and I want to change my name

Can my partner and I get married but not live together straight away?
I see this as a compromise between my non-Muslim Mother and my future partner’s Muslim parents.
When I marry my Muslim partner, what do I do about my name?

My sister in law is interfering in my marriage

I would appreciate some advice…I’ve been married to my cousin for 8 years and we have 3 children.
Our marriage was arranged and things are going downhill. I feel like I´m losing this war of trying to keep my marriage together….
