YES, HE CAN BE LYING

Dear Gloria,

When analysing your situation please dont look at what's happening now but think of the future. If you had a child with this man would you accept your children to be fasting from the age of 7 onwards while you eat and drink for the month of ramadan. Also would you accept (if you had a girl) for her to wear the scarf over her head and have to be covered from head to toe and even go swimming this way from the age of 7 onwards while you dressed in a costume and would you accept your daughter only being allowed to marry a muslim man (and possibly an Egyptian)?

Although he may be ok with you being a christian, a muslim man will raise his children as a muslim whether you like it or not. Its their belief and its in the Koran.

Please just think about the future and not the present. I would also suggest you do a lot of study about the religion because if you choose to be with him, Islam will be your children's way of life.

Sally
