Muslim man marrying a new Muslim
Question
I recently converted to Islam and I am in a relationship with one muslim man. His family is making him married to one of his cousins and he dont have guts to take a stand. Now my family is hindu and they will make me marry a hindu man. I am afraid I will be in haram relation with him and the man whom I love is not willing to take a stand for me for his family. I am left in middle of nowhere. I can't live my life with a person who does shirk and is non believer plus my family don't know I have converted to Islam and they won't understand and force me to marry a hindu man. What should I do? Please help me. Please I can't leave Islam.
Answer
If he is happy with you and you seem to be comfortable with him you may accept his proposal of marriage.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
