New convert to Islam, Struggling with Cultural differences

I am a mid-thirties progressive American woman who never really found religion – until now. I am successful, never married, no children, have a great career and I would consider myself open-minded, strong and independent. At the oddest moment in my life I met a man whom I consider to be my soul mate. We met and had an intense, immediate attraction. Our relationship progressed quickly, he asked me to be his wife, I said yes. He is Tunisian and muslim.

My Muslim boyfriend wants me to abort our baby

Hello 🙂 I am a non Muslim woman pregnant by a Muslim man. I told him and he asked me to have an abortion. I refused as I am against them. He told me if his family found out they would disown him and that he cannot lose his family!

In love with non-Muslim man

I am a Muslim woman and have been seeing this non-Muslim man for a year now. We have been dating for a while and have realised that we could spend the rest of our lives together. But because he is non-Muslim we knew that it would never be possible to be together.

Why is our love forbidden?

I am a 26-year-old Egyptian girl who has been with a European man for almost 3 years. I love him so much and we belong together. He is not a Muslim but he is a good person and he loves me like no one else ever has. I love my religion but I don’t understand how our love can be looked upon as a sin! My father is completely against the relationship of course, but I don’t understand what I am supposed to do. I will not end my relationship and I don’t believe I should turn my back on true love just because we don’t share the same religion. We are living in 2009, not the middle ages- would it better that I end this and marry some random Arab man who I don’t really love but that is Muslim, when instead I could have true love with my soulmate?
