Suppose a non-Muslim wants to convert to Islam but his/her partner doesn't want to convert, and they don't want to divorce because they love each other. If he/she still converts, is the marriage still valid? What should be done in such a situation in which a person has to choose between Allah and the spouse?
In many countries (which call themselves secular), inter-religious marriages are valid. So, even if one partner converts, the marriage would still be valid as per the governing law. In this situation, what should a person do if his/her spouse neither agrees to convert, nor to divorce (maybe because of love)?
