oh no its ok!
i guess i wasnt clear enough
his immediate family has been amazing so far, he as well.
but its OTHER people who have been driving me nuts, so ive been trying to figure out a way to stay on good terms with them (they are his extended family, as well as mine) and still be able to do what i and my fiance would like to do.
heres an ex.
His aunt who lives here in the U.S. keeps trying to make me wear revealing clothes and dresses, and i keep explaining to her in the nicest way possible that i can still look like a newly wed bride and stay covered appropriately...i guess she just doesnt understand my level of commitment to Islam.
i dont want to cause a rift or anger with anyone in his family, esp not this early. but i also refuse to go against the teachings of islam for anyone. |
