Re: Have any of your siblings/relatives married outside of your race?
Salaam,
Two of my cousins are married to converts (both white brothers). The older sister has 2 daughters while the younger one just got married in June.
One of my uncles is married to a Thai sister. Rest of us are pakistani as far as I know...

Re: Have any of your siblings/relatives married outside of your race?
My brother was married to a Bengali woman for ten years. They are divorced now. They have 3 kids who mostly stay with their mother but come round on weekends.
Alhamdullilah my parents are okay with me considering marriage with someone of another race. Initially my mum was a little apprehensive about the idea but over time she got over it. Having said that, where my brother is concerned, she told him she doesn't want another foreign daughter in law lol.

Seems like the war is still fresh in her ex potential in laws mind and they refused to give their blessing, something I've seen happening quite often lately. It's easier to marry a revert than cross the Somalia/ Somaliland line. May Allah (swt) guide them from their ignorance.

Originally posted by Badriya View PostI will... i always tell my parents that its my choice at the end of the day. I used to think my mom was more open to the idea of me marrying outside my race but whenever i say i find <insert race> attractive she always has some type of story to say loool like "ohh u should not marry a guy from there because they are like this" and then goes ahead and says all the stereotypes from that race.I spoke to my dad recently and asked his opinion about it. He said he would prefer that i married someone from my country because it will shame him if i dont :( . He is very adamant that i do not marry a man from <insert country> because if i do he is going to leave the country because of the embarrassment it will causeIts that serious to him. Because of my parents negative view on marrying outside my race i always think there is no point to cause problems in the family and i might as well stay within my race. Its just very annoying cus all it does is limit my choices of finding a good man.
