[Danah]

wake up at night whilst she's a sleep and slam dunk the tree into the skip outside

can't you be a little more serious when you give advice? I am sure you didn't mean what you said :hmm:

^ I think he's just trying to lighten it up...:hiding:
On the other hand, I'm very glad your post wasn't directed at me :X

Lol why do you say that?

well Mark, now you see the problem of "springing" your Islam on your wife.

take a giant step back and try to remember if she is doing anything different this year. she MAY go it a we bit strong just to p*ss you off.

if however, she is doing xmas EXACTLY as before, you're the one all sodded out.

either attempt some for of dawah in regards to her practices or just leave her be.

you COULD invite some Jehovah Witness' over and they could explain the origins of xmas to her. once she's thought about it, it would be preferable to her that your are a Muslim and NOT a Jehovah's Witness!!


you could query her on every little thing, such as, "what does that have to do with Isa ibn Marriam?" followed by, "did HE do this?

you could ask her which of the birth stories, Matthew or Luke, she likes better. then ask why they are different. in Matthew, Joseph and Mary live in Bethlehem. in Luke, they live in Nazareth. a bit odd, eh?

you need to find a way to make inroads with your wife or consider just divorcing her and finding yourself a nice Muslim girl.

:wa:

divorce is in my mind but i want to wait and see and not rush i am doing ishtikara about it

Divroce is on your mind?? dont you think thats a bit drastic?

 

[aadil77]

you can do the boring ''lets sit down together and talk it out'' :

just tell her trees belong outside and its a bit stupid to put it in the sitting room without benefiting from all those nutrients by eating the leaves like reindeers

or the exciting stealth mission :

wake up at night whilst she's a sleep and slam dunk the tree into the skip outside

job done!

hilarious , can't rep

my wife is going to put christmas tree today in the house.

i told her no dont do that.

she is not listening

i asked so many scholars and imams they all say have patience with you wife hew

dont understand what to do imsad

Oh let her celebrate Christmas. I know she is a Christian and your Muslim, the last thing you need to get an argument is over a Christmas tree.

You both need to keep each other happy despite your differences.

I'm with you brother.I am a Christian i don't put up a tree either. It takes the focus of the meaning. But it is still just a tree. Keep i mind it will be harder for you and ger being in an unequilly yoked marriage as far as your faith. She is your wife though...and we as men need alot of patience.lol but equally women need patience for us as well they are our equalls and need us to be understanding as well.

You don't have to celebrate Christmas just because of a tree, Allah knows your heart and what is in it Try to be understanding of her and she will do the same for you.

God bless

P.s. I hope it's not a real one, they stink and you have to vacume up the needles that fall off.lol

You do need to be patient with this. Firstly you say..

yes she is a christian and i am new revert to islam

The as long as she is not affecting your duties as a muslim i dont really see the problem. You knew reverting as a muslim and her staying as a Chrisitian would mean her celebrating Christmas.

This is quite a an extreme step to take over a Christmas tree.
