No.Converting to Islam because you want to marry a Muslim man is no sense.Converting to Islam because you understand Islam and you by your heart accept the true and One God make more sense.

I will tell you will not regret reverting to Islam,even you loose this guy you want to marry, you cannot leave Islam because this will be Gods great gift to you and maybe this is now the right time for you.Go...don't hesitate.

First of all check if you both are culturally compatable, like food habits, dressing , moral values , common habits/tastes etc.

I think this will matter more as even people of same religion divorce after the initial love clears off.

A muslim guy can marry a christian or jew without reverting her to Islam as long as she is VIRGIN, if she is not married before.

Better first learn about Islam and then take decision. If u really Love that person and think that u can live a happy life with him then better to convert to Islam and get two benefits from one transaction ISLAM and LOVE of ur life.

Best of Luck

if you are practicing any of three religions from the BOOK (Islam, Christianity or Judaism) you don't have to convert. Muslim can marry a woman of any of these religions.

But, hey, my advice: think twice, or better triple, before taking this step... and learn your rights (or lack of those) in case the marriage is taking an ugly turn, before going to the Shariat Court, not after!

IM CONFUSED BECAUSE THEY SAID THAT ITS A MUST TO CONVERT A MUSLIM RELIGION IF YOU'RE NOT A MUSLIM BEFORE YOU GET MARRIED IN THE SHARIA COURT HERE IN QATAR.

AFAIK No.

Also he must not force her wife/fiancee (in your case fiancee) to change your religion to islam.

my dear leolady, its all the better if you become a muslim. believe me, you will have nothing to loose.

let me also add, as long as you are a christian or a jew, you are allowed to marry any muslim man.

likewise, a muslim man can "ONLY" marry a woman who is a non-muslim from either of these two religions only. period!

good-luck.

No Absolutely, Islam religion doesn't force females to be Muslim to get married, you can be ANY religion (as a female) to marry a Muslim guy, but the opposite to impossible (Muslim female, and un-Muslim guy)

you can go for it
