Salaam,
To my brother from NJ...I am a Pakistani woman who married a Black man. I got it from everyone. Hey, the only thing that really matters is that I remember I am a slave of Allah. I pray that I serve My Lord. He gave me two beautiful sons..Alhumdullila is all I can say.
Asslamo Allaikum,
There are Mosques in UK where in the consitution it is written (yes you are reading this correctly****):
"Pakistani Children NOT Allowed"
There are mosques in UK who openly discrimanate against Bangali & Gujrati children
I get mixed-race couples come to our school all the time where their children have been abused in Mosques.
I have personally spoken to revert Sisters who have cried about how they were VERBALLY ABUSED & KICKED out of a Mosque!
OR
"Told to Learn and understand Urdu"
None of the above is a joke, all true stories.
Someone in my family is married to an Afro-Carribean brother; and you can't imagine the hell she went through!
My Sister was married to a American (White) revert! I wasn't even practising Islam at the time so I didn't care & neither did our immediate family but BOY-O-BOY did our family get it in the community!
My uncle, my cousins have been married to reverts for the last 35+ years so it has never been a novelty in our family, Alhum-do-illah. As a matter of fact some of these half-white/half pakistani kids have grown up & in turn married Arabs, Turks etc; We make fun of each other when everyone meets up but that's about it.
We got blacks, Whites, Chinese, Afghan, Indians, West-Indians, Arabs in the family (men & women)...I can't even remember everyone now
So we are used to it but some of the Muslims are still diabolical in their attitudes.
you mentioned that someone in your family married an afro-caribbean ( black ) man and that she received hell for that. my question is why? i try to figure this out. the black man is the most hated and least respected person on earth and it's puzzling because he hasn't imposed colonialism or slavery on non-blacks etc. and the world doesn't respect him, it's a sin to marry him or a shame to the family for many. it has kept a lot of pious brothers from marrying.
assalam ,brother i do not know what experience you have had or what kind of monstrous people you have met but i think you are pushing it a bit too far..... when it comes to marriage matters for example Arabs don`t like giving their daughters to nobody not even to Arabs that they don`t know in general if you ever lived in the desert than you would understand what it represents letting go of a woman for an Arab it is a different mentality different, environement, with big family structure,connections,(which can also be a good platform for the stability of the marriage...etc just take a look at brother Raeds thread and you `ll know what am talking about racism has little to do with it i believe it can be wrong sometimes but not always wassalamalhamdulillah, sister. you said you got it from everyone, but i don't understand why people should be shocked. why are people thinking that black people are less important? it really puzzles me because, there are hardly any black people in their countries for them to have experiences with blacks. and no african nations have had colonial powers in any of these countries. it's like they would be ashamed of us.
Salaam,
I was JUST coming here to start a thread about this very subject. I am a white, female, revert and have been stunned at the sheer racism directed towards me from all races of Muslims.
It's quite funny, actually...when it doesn't make me want to weep. I have had no less than four sets of parents of friends (Muslim) tell me I am to consider myself their daughter. But they will NOT allow their children to marry outside their race/tribe/nation. For instance....I have some Syrian friends and their father was visiting for a week. He praised me and told me how proud he was that I converted. I just found out today that he forbids his children to marry a non-Syrian. So he calls me his daughter but wouldn't marry his son to someone like me? Hypocrite?
A Pakistani brother is interested in marrying me and I am interested in marrying him. I met his parents and they were so kind and said I was a daughter to them. They still will not give approval so we can marry. Once again there is this contradictory dichotomy at play.
Time and time again I am embraced and kissed by the parents of my friends and told I am their daughter now. And yet still they would not allow their blood children to marry ourside their culture. It is backwards to the teachings of Islam. It's like they decided to read all the sermons, hadiths, and surrahs except the very last sermon. Forgive me...as this topis is a sensitive one for me.
