I am a English male of Part Jewish non orthodox & Part COE (Church Of England) Blood, and am in love with a Muslim girl from Saudi Arabia. Even thou she isn't in an arranged marriage & her parents have given their blessing to a marriage of her choice providing the groom is an Arab or Muslim, I understand that the only way I would be allowed to Marry this girl is either me turning to Islam or by Mahr, as I am non religous I am very confused on what to do. I am deeply in love with this girl & want to provide her with the love she deserves.
Any advice you can give would be surley appreactied.

Islam is the true religion cause if wasn't then why are there more people converting islam than any other religion. islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. with over 1.3 billion followers why else wouldn't you convert. besides if you didn't, than you would be heart broken cause you will never be able to marry this girl. and if you do convert to islam you have to be serious about it not just to marry the girl of your dreams and end up not practicing and abiding the laws of islam properly.

Im a girl, and my opinion is that it seems pretty obvious that you will have to change for this girl. So islam or by mahr is definitely the option you are looking for!

If you marry this girl and not convert her parents might never want to have anything to do with you. If she has a brother, what I would do is get him to sweet talk to her parents telling them how great you are and all. Something that would also get on their good side is, if you want, to tell them that if/when you had children, you'd raise them Muslim.
