Christianity, Islam, and Judaism are the Abrahamic religions

So no need to convert

P.S I respect all religions

I know Islam, Christianity, and Judaism all count as Abrahamism but still, interfaith marriages are not allowed according to Islam - I can only speak on behalf of Islam.

What I have been taught is that a Muslim man can marry a non-muslim woman without the need of her to convert to Islam (even though many doesn't follow that and convert to Islam but I think the above mentioned is the truesayings of Islam). But that is not the case for women - women can only marry Muslims, so a non-muslim man has to convert to Islam before the marriage can be accepted.

I honestly think it has everything to do with the fact that a man is superior to a woman and after marriage, a woman has to submit to her husband's values. So for that the Muslim woman doesn't lose her religious beliefto a non-Muslim man, he has to convert. For a non-muslim woman, she is supposedly subjected to her Muslim husband anyway.

All religious weddings are sexist. There I said it in public lol! Some people still like them & that's fine. But fact remains.

I like registry/court wedding followed by whatever non-sexist traditional thing is fun for the couple/family.

Marriage itself is sexist.
Why do women always have to leave their parents and go to her husband's home after marriage? 😕
I think this happens even after court marriage 😕

Anand Ahuja is probably Sindhi. It seems both Sonam and Anand chose a Sikh wedding may be because of there are similarities in Sindhi and Punjabi weddings.

On SRK-Gauri, couples from different religions can also marry under the Special Marriage Act. It needs a simple registration.
