A non-Muslim Nigerian man has shown that love knows no religion by affirming his wife’s religious standing at their wedding ceremony.
Despite not being a Muslim himself, the man married a staunch Muslim woman. To express his full support for her religion, he presented her with a Quran, Tasbih, ablution kettle, praying mat, and a Khimar as gifts at their wedding.
The Muslim bride, who goes by the TikTok handle @Lightsmummy, shared this heartwarming revelation in a recent video on the platform.
She revealed that her husband stated that since he married her as a Muslim, she will remain a Muslim forever, and he has no intention of converting her to his religion.
However, she didn’t disclose his actual religion and simply referred to him as ‘Non-Muslim’.
“My non-Muslim husband wrapped me in Quaran, tesbir, praying mat, Khimar and ablution kettle as a gift. When asked why, he said ‘I married her a Muslim and she remains one forever, I am not letting her leave the God that brought her to me”.
Interestingly, their union has sparked a huge controversy on social media, with some Muslims expressing their disapproval of the marriage.
They asserted that the marriage is null and void because a Muslim woman is not permitted to marry a non-Muslim man. They also argued that only a Muslim man is allowed to marry a non-Muslim.
