    Is there anything special about items or gifts brought from Mecca?

    Is there anything special about items or gifts brought from Mecca?

    Dancing? Can a muslim sister join dance classes?

    I've been in love with a catholic boy for a little over a year now. We graduated together and now we're starting college. I'm turning 20 this year. In islam, to prevent fornication shouldn't two people who want to get married, be married as soon as possible? He wants to convert to marry me...
