Learn as much about the Gospel as you can. There are a lot of similarities between Islam and Mormonism -- perhaps many of the main points that drive mainstream Christians crazy are more understandable to Muslims since they tend to know more about ancient world events and doctrines than most of these folk do.

I have read about half the Koran so far. I find many points that are on a high level to mix well with LDS scripture (except, of course the idea that Jesus is merely a prophet). Of course, we do not make anyone God the Father's equal -- even Jesus taught that he was the way to the father, not the final destination himself.

Don't convert just to make her happy -- try to find out why she is so committed to the LDS Church. When you discover this you might want to join on your own.

Think about a horse and an ox pulling a wagon. One's legs are longer. This is know as unequally yoked. We are advised to not be unequally yoked. Just a thought. I hope you talk to the missionaries and do as James suggests in James 1:5-6. Good luck, bro.

Depends on the couple. If you're girlfriend insists that you be Mormon in order to be with her, then you'd better decide right now if you love her that much.

Too bad. Her love has it's limits. But, if you're willing, then looks like you're heading to the waters of baptism.

Well, we know who the more thoughtful one is.

Good news, you get a host of nubile young virgins in the next world either way you go.

Bad news, you're about to lose your own spiritual heritage. If you marry in the LDS Temple, you're family will not be allowed to watch. And you get to wear cotton-poly white underware for the rest of your life. (Oh, hope you like Boy Scouts and Basketball.)

Hi thank you very much for your reply and advise . I think i have to make decision wether to be with her or not.cause it seems to me Lord is testing my fate . So if i convert to mormon religion only to be with her . it means i betrayed my Lord ,it is a big sin and i will be responsible on judgement day. u are right there are a lot of simmilarities between our religions .I dont blame her on anything cause in muslim religion it is the same rule muslim woman is not allowed to marry non muslim.
i will take it as a test and punishment from Lord .

Don't convert to be with her. The word I'd call her is censored, but she's on par with a woman who takes money from men. She is trying to make you pay with your religion to be with her. No woman is worth that.

There is something wrong with this picture. Why is she in a relationship with you, if she claims she cant marry you if you aren't mormon? I am with DISRUPTIVE on this one. She has some alterior motives. Watch out for her. She is up to something if she is talking out of both sides of her mouth.

That's a bit harsh. I'm guessing she befriended our Muslim poster, perhaps hoping to share the LDS gospel with him. One thing led to another, and they fell in love. Now she's in a bind, because, as is only proper, she loves God more than her boyfriend. She's drawn the right line in the sand.

So, my humble opinion, is that Christian singles should not date anyone who is obviously unqualified as a marriage partner--such as a nonChristian. "Missionary romance," is something that God occasionally has mercy on. However, it's wrong, and a sin against God.

As for marriage itself, IMHO husband and wife should share the same faith. Furthermore, they should join the same community of faith. As a personal example, do to my beliefs about dating and marriage, I remained single until I was 31. My wife is from the Presbyterian Church. However, when we married, she agreed to join the Assemblies of God. Now, the Presbyterian church is a wonderful fellowship. I went to one of their colleges. However, when it comes to raising a family, we need to be together. The Bible says that when a man and a woman leave their parents, they join together and become one flesh. How is that possible, if they do not share the same spiritual core?
