what would you advise to anyone who have entered into an interfaith marriage or planning to get themselves into this?
thanks everyone in advance.
Does the saying Love conquers all mean that this thing shouldn't matter?

Hey Nish - welcome back.
I don't think this is a question people could advise on. Because it would depend on the character of both the participants; their individual feelings about their faith; the strength of their faith; what their religion is; where they live; their families reaction; societies reaction; the couples feelings for each other...there are so many variables that one couldn't make a prediction.
Based on my own experiences and observations I could only say - sometimes it works - sometimes it doesn't.

Hello Nish! Are you going to marry a Muslim? Fully agree with Romany. Just my PERSONAL advice, assuming we have a similar culture, if one of the family (or even both) reject this marriage, then it's better to avoid it.

Thanks guys, I am back after how 10 years lol... I was gone so long .. really busy with my new job and my baby :)
Well, I did marry a Muslim. You are right that interfaith marriage is really not for all. Only people with open-mindedness and deep understanding of life and religion can make this kind of thing work. It's not easy but I am proud to say it's going well. Just don't know until when lol ^^
