Wow, thank you all so much. I really was worried that no one would want to help me because I was a Christian. In fact, others told me that no one would. You quickly dispelled that notion. I will admit that its hard for me to turn my back on someone when I know that this is not what God wants for thier life. However, each day I grow stronger. I know that God wanted me to read the Quoran for a reason. Maybe it is to dispell myths or for my own understanding. It will be great to know the end result. I know that God is a purposeful God, and I just need to heed to his understanding. Thank you.

Bismillah, I don't agree with the stories The Nation tells, but they are Muslims to me the same that Shiite and Sunnis are. I know scholars place different sects into hell, but I don't. Just like Malcolm X found the true Islaam, so might the others. And we can share things we have in common just like we do with Christians and Jews. Why discourage others from finding Allah, SWT, by being exclusionary? |

Nation of Islam???? we don't get many ( in fact none) here in London (alhumdulillah). And if we did they'd probably get turfed out straight away by the mainstream muslims here. Nation of Islam are in no way islamic. Their belief that Elijah Muhammad as a prophet (or whatever) puts them straight out of the fold of islam, their belief in the white man as devils is racist and forbidden in islam as Islam is universal. Therefore sis, this person is not a muslim. it appears as though the brother has misunderstood the concept of polygamy in islam and blown it out of proportion. it is allowed. BUT it has conditions attached to it. A man can only have four wives if he can comply with those conditions. polygamy is not to satisfy his sexual urges. Because that's just nasty!maybe you could research the real and true islam and share your knowledge with the bro insha allah.if after you have tried that, he doesn't change then leave him and accept he is not good for you and it just was not meant to be. |

In the name of God, the merciful and infinitely compassionate, all exaltation is due to Allah (God) Lord of the Universe: Notsureyet, Peace and blessings and welcome! I just wanted to respond to your inital post regarding your situation. Let me respond to your post in two categories one as religious and the other as a man. As a man let me say that I disagree with this other man who says to another woman "You're too nice" obviously this individual is unintelligent because any intelligent person would want to be associated with another human who treats him/her nicely or with respect. Also if such an individual is on the internet countless time trading naked internet photos then obviously this (and the one prior I mentioned). So far sister I've counted two red flags lets see on the religious side. As a religious man first and foremost let me say that the Nation of Islam is a particular branch of "borrowed Islam" that majority of Muslims around the world don't associate with. Not only has their philosophy prove to be racist, but also iconoclastic which glorifies the human image of their founder Fard Muhammad which Muslims would deem blasphemy against God. This is one red flag. Second red flag as I mentioned in the last two paragraphs was him talking to women and sending naked photos of himself. This is unexceptable. There are strict guidelines on how men must conduct themselves so far this indivudal hasn't fulfilled those guidelines but then again he doesn't have to observed them as we Muslims of the majority do not associate with NOI. Second red Flag. Last, when a man addresses a woman especially a Muslim man, his language must always reflect divine knowledge therefore he must be sensitive and respectful of others. Obviously him not wanting to be in your company is enough evidence to show he is not the man for you. When he tells you, "you're too nice" then obviously HE IS TOO DUMB TO WANT A NICE WOMAN. Third red flag....I hope this helps |

Thank you for your kind words. I think I am going to continue reading both the quoran and the bible. I think God has put me through this to learn something. It seems like I am much more acceptable of what Islam teaches, but not neccessarily the Nation of Islam. I think more people should learn that there is a difference. I am ashamed to just now in life learn that they are not the same. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me. I appreciate it a lot.

Bismillah, Why don't you look into Islaam? It is a beautiful, peace-loving, women-respecting faith. Many women who start off with a lost guy like this end up having a strong faith in God/Allah, Praise to him, which guides them through tough times, and a much better guy than that. Many of our Muslim husbands lack things we need, but most are basically good Muslim men because they would never cheat (because it would be cheating in front of Allah, the Most Powerful), drink, or beat their wives. This guy isn't there yet and may never be. Let Allah/God save this guy's soul. It's not your job! You deserve better and so does he. Leave him alone right now, and find yourself by finding a relationship with God/Allah. You might find some beautiful things in the Nation of Islam, but they are also racists with twisted stories that are not true. God/Allah can find us and lead us to him from anywhere in the world, or any religion also. Edited by herjihad |
