Greetings and peace be with you Danah;

I agree with some of what you said Eric, but I didnt have any intention to convert the wife by posting that video,
I know you have good intentions, and the video may be of use in the future, but I do believe that some bridges need to be built first. It is a great sadness to me when differences in religion, create huge barriers and conflict. We should be able to live side by side despite all our differences, we should still be able to love others who believe differently to ourselves.

We should use our faith to do good in this world, to forgive others, build relationships, build communities, help the marginalised and the oppressed. Instead we use our faith to find the time and energy to argue with those who have different beliefs.

In the spirit of praying for an inner peace that surpasses all understanding

Peace Eric,

If he explains to her the purpose of the video "as I mentioned in my previous post" before showing it then there will be no problem to show it now. It will come out as clarfiying the misunderstanding she had about Islam.

If your husband told you he had converted to Christiainity, and whilst you were still angry with him. He said watch this Christian video, it will clear up any misunderstandings. Can you truthfully say that you would sit down and calmly watch this Christian video?

In the spirit of praying for the sanctity of marraige.

Yeah! Why not?
I will be waiting him to explain his reasons and what made him take such a decision.
 
:sl: Brother Mark,

When Allah wills, He sets your affairs in order for you. All you have to do is draw closer to Him. Don't waste your time and energy in convincing your wife you've made the right choice. It is Allah Who guides and turns the hearts. Instead my brother, spend time glorifying and praising Allah in the quietness of the night. Glorify and praise Him with every breath you can. I swear by Allah brother, if anyone is easy to please, it is Allah. If you walk to Him, He runs to you. Man is ungrateful and hardest to please.

Be steadfast in your prayers. Avoid the prohibited. Glorify and praise Allah after each salah (subhanAllah 33x Alhumdulillah 33x, Allahu akbar 34x) Ayatul Kursi (verse of The Throne) and astaghfirullah as much as you want.

Draw closer still to your Creator with voluntary acts of worship... Glorify and praise Him by saying ' SubhanAllahi wa bihamdihi subhanAllahil 'adheem'. Do one round of your prayers beads, two three? As much as you want. 'Astaghfirullah' 100/200/300? Keep going until you feel like stopping.

Say 'La ilaha illAllah' as many times as you want. Glorifying and praising Allah will draw you closer to Allah and Him to you. La ilaha illAllah rolls of the tongue so effortlessly. 500x a day is really easy. :statisfie

There are other tasbeehs (Fortress of The Muslim). I mentioned these for personal reasons. Leave the stresses bro and just turn to Allah. Everything is in His hands. What He wills will happen. You just worship Him and make dua to Allah to set your affairs in order. Glorify and praise Him in solitude and Tahajjud and you will see the results for yourself inshaAllah. Don't stress with the duniya. It isn't worth it. Go to Allah. He will take care of it. :)

Assalamu Alaikum wa rahamtu Allahi wa barakatuh brother

I'm sure that in a while or so Allah will alleviate your sufferage. I know that deeply you feel good that you suffer because you're suffering for Allah's cause. You have to be very strong and not doubt in these occasions. There is something in you rheart that Allah likes and he guided you. I'm sure that from this sufferage you will benefit and become a stronger individual. You will be faced with many obstacled but it would be beautiful if you only turned to Allah and express your sadness to him alone without partneshiping or assosiating anyone to him.


For Him (alone) is the Word of Truth: any others that they call upon besides Him hear them no more than if they were to stretch forth their hands for water to reach their mouths but it reaches them not: for the prayer of those without Faith is nothing but misguidance. [13:14]


And when My servants ask you, I am indeed near (to them by My knowledge). I respond to the invocations of the supplicant when he calls on Me. So let them obey Me and believe in Me, so that they may be led aright. [2:186]

You are very understanding, :smile:

We must pray for markislam and his wife, and the same God hears all our prayers.

In the spirit of praying for a just and loving outcome
