Catholic and Muslim: Married at 23
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 вер 2024
- When Joshua and Dina met in JC, they acknowledged that their different religions would drive a wedge between them romantically. Six years later, they reached a consensus and got married. How did the couple overcome the challenge of an interfaith relationship? Why is religious conversion such a taboo topic in Singapore?

Yea well if she left her faith instead, the muslim responses in the comments section would be very different
i mean you would technically be confused and kinda mad if someone left your religion
Well ur just an islamophobes running in muslim channel and spread hate everywhere 🤪
u dont need to spread hate like that, his choice of faith comes down with its own risk. People cross by to congratulate and pray for both of em keep negativity to yourself
If she left her faith then it is bad for her to abandon the only true religion. Muslims can only pray for her. But muslims know she will nvr leave her faith if she is well educated in islam. Non muslims shud understand the religion first b4 making dumb comments whch make them fools
You should read up about Islam then you'd know it's the only last true Abrahamic Faith and a true monotheistic faith that accepts all prophets from Adam , till Mohammed(peace be upon them all ) up to the last revelation/testament of that which is the Quran .
Don't spread hate if you don't know anything but only take things out of context .
I'm black and Muslim and I love all my catholic brothers and sisters❤❤
The first line says it all. Religion fits the life and not the other way round.
I think for relationships like this one party will always give in and convert eventually
I'm a catholic and married to a moslem for almost 10 years..We got married officially in church..And have some small islamic ceremony at home..
I'm an indonesian, and in indonesia many couples have interfaith marriage for all of their marriage life..
Sure it not always working all the time, but it can be..
@@verper5220 r u still a catholic just curious
not much of a choice is there if you want to marry her. no conversion = no marriage
And he made a choice what. If he wasn't ok with that he wouldn't be with her much less marry her.
There is always a choice💁🏻♀️
Yo!! Nobody forcing him to convert ok?? Don't be racists!!
just move to Australia or sumwhr far away that isn't Islamic. No one will bother if u refuse conversion.
hi, genuine question, i’ve been curious for this for a long time and it’s been unanswered for as long as i have, why is it always someone from another religion converting to islam, never have i ever hear a muslim converting to his/her partners religion, I’m just wondering why? other religion is open to it, why not be as open as well? his mom is kinda upset about his conversion but that’s about it tbh, but what if she converted instead? what will happen to her?
Cos the family and community will excommunicate the couple. I know of a couple like this and my ex boyfriend (muslim) and I also nearly became a statistic of this.
Its harder to convert to Muslim then from Muslim
I think it is because at this part of the world, those who for whatever reason decide to leave the Muslim faith will be largely ostracized to the point they also cannot continue living in their own country anymore. Even the family members all will feel the pinch of the act - getting pressure from society etc. Read some stories before and on YT there are stories of such la. I personally know someone who now live in Europe as an atheist although in her identity card she is still Islam. If you are Malaysian, then the law involved makes it even more complicated la for you to leave the faith legally. Not impossible just harder and frown upon.
Also if you are in Malaysia, there is no civil marriage option (correct me if I'm wrong). So if you fall for a Muslim, you have to convert to be together. But it can be a good thing if he/she really fell in love with the religion itself and not convert in name only. I know of friends who convert cause no choice but came to embrace the beauty of Islam. On the other hand, I also know of couples who lived like atheist (both husband+wife) - the conversion is just for legality.
What this couple did is quite interesting though as the girl also tried to understand Catholicism.
All the best to the couple, til Jannah. 💕
leaving islam = beheading
thats why noone leaves LOLOL
A muslim commenting here! Since the people who are commenting don't understand. It's not about our community and our family being shocked or angry(of course that will happen). For most muslims, the reason is Islam is not just a religion it's a way of life. We literally live and breathe Islam. Everything from the moment we wake up, to eating, dressing, praying, and going to sleep revolves around our beautiful religion. Therefore, if you're a true believer you will know Islam is the truth and the only way of life. That's why we don't leave Islam. All acts of worship we do are for the sake of god. And eventually our ultimate goal is to go to paradise. We believe the straight path is Islam and your ticket to paradise. Tbh, I'm not a scholar. If you genuinely want to learn, go to your nearest islamic centre or mosque. Hope that helps :)
skipping classes to serve was a thing !
also skipping CCAs for weddings cos angpaos.
Grats to the both of you !
I am happy for the couple that things work out but there is really no need to promote such marriage over social media - to each his own, the Muslims will be happy to watch, the Catholics not. Let's keep such private life private, especially in Singapore. So what is going to happen when a couple in a reverse situation also produces a UA-cam and start saying why she abandons the Muslim faith...?
this was so beautiful to watch :")
I’m an unbeliever; agnostic atheist one can say. Buddhism is the best religion for an unbeliever if one would ever want to dabble into religious spirituality, but Hinduism is the most compatible with the New Age. I have read too many Islamic history and have read so many rebuttals that I’ll say “no comment” just to be safe and polite. But if there’s one religion that has had so many rigorous scientific examination (keywords: scientifically tested and examined) miracles and yet, the most incompatible to the modern life, it would be the Catholic religion. Now again, I’m not a Catholic believer, but that religion doesn’t fit into anyone’s lifestyle; the religion is demanding and has no grey area. It’s black and white, no compromise or in between. I’m not talking about the average Catholics of today, I’m talking about the Catholic religion at its core. Strangely, the Catholic miracles are continuous; it’s just that they’re not publicised in the media. One of the more recent fascination is regarding a Traditional Catholic nun, who happens to be Black and her body has been found to be incorrupt, despite the presence of water at some point and the bacterias. She never even been embalmed, let alone treated with any preservative. Her name is Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster. Now, despite the many miracles of the church, I would rather attribute everything to psychokinesis and quantum physics, although we still don’t understand everything. Nevertheless, for me, nothing comes close to the Catholic religion when it comes to supernatural phenomenons. Yes, I’m not talking about the miracles in the bible alone, as those are things written by ancient people; but supernatural phenomenons even in the modern times, many that have been investigated scientifically by non-Catholic doctors and researchers. No other religion comes close in the modern time. But of course, I think it’s psychokinesis and quantum physics- religious people simply refuse to accept that and they’ll say it is God who does this and that. So I always tell my friends, if they want to learn any religion and if they think there’s a God who created people and wants people to come and to him in heaven 🙄, try learning the Catholic religion. It is the only religion where their God still perform not-yet-scientifically-explainable miracles in the modern times. It’s a ridiculously difficult religion because if people really go into the rabbit hole of that religion, it’s actually very demanding with precise requirements and yeah… it’s inconvenient. But if possible, I will try telling them about what we know so far in the science of psychokinesis and all the scientific evidence that we have, along with some bit of quantum physics.
Proud to be catholic.

Lovely couple! May your marriage last till Jannah
Men are the protectors and maintainers of women, because Allah has given the one more (strength) than the other, and because they support them from their means. Therefore the righteous women are devoutly obedient, and guard in (the husband's) absence what Allah would have them guard. As to those women on whose part ye fear disloyalty and ill-conduct, admonish them (first), (Next), refuse to share their beds, (And last) beat them (lightly); but if they return to obedience, seek not against them Means (of annoyance): For Allah is Most High, great (above you all). Quran 4:34
Always the non-muslim having to convert to Islam. How about the muslim converting out of Islam to the spouse’s religion?
What happened to equality and fairness? 😂
dont have anything nice to say, dont say. religion and marriage are very personal things. as long as the couple and the people around them are happy
No its not..
Doesn't matter what religion as long as you are good and do your best because this life is just temporary
So young married. Wish you both stay till the end ya. Because many people blinded by love and married too early ended up divorced. Converting is a big move, hope this guy won't regret.
This looks so inspiring, hope they continue to overcome the challenges in their marriage. 😊
this was so lovely. i'm so happy for the both of them and all the best joshua in your journey on discovering islam! congrats to both on your marriage. :)
Congrats to the happy couple!
i’m glad everything worked out for them. be happy! ❤
2 very mature lovely people 😩 Alhamdulilah to you two❤️
Really inspirational and educational! Cute couple! ❤
You married to a person or to their faith?
How beautiful their story is🥺❤️ Alhamdulillah. Here in Philippines, even with pure intentions and all efforts done, Muslim parents still would not accept Revert muslim guy for their born muslim daughter😢.
Aiyah always must convert to islam 1. No choice
May Allah keep you in Istiqomah brother
May Allah keep them both firm upon the truth. Ameen
O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people. Quran 5:51
@@moholah3745 context please read the tafseer
This brother need to understand that he Choose Islam and not born into it. A choice is always the best.
Firstly, this is a beautiful video. Appreciate how the couple look into each others faith. Secondly, outside of Singapore. Many couples don't convert to please partner & in-laws. Thirdly, having 5 kids. Seeing this young couple flirting in McDonalds taking seats & time, would have made me well peed off 😅
i didnt know you can switch god just like that
It's actually against the Catholic faith to do this but because the Islam faith/community will excommunicate the couple, most Muslims won't want to do this because it means losing their family and friends. Social blackmailing? So "no choice", the one who is from a less extreme religion will convert. Good luck to him.
My pov : One is THE ONE TRUE GOD and the other is a prophet whom was claimed many years later after his death, as an entity that shares divinity with 2 other entities - the father and the holy spirit. He chose the One True God. The One and only Creator. Because a prophet is a man, a human. He did not possess the characteristics of a God.
As long as they are happy, of course; and why not?
Don't let religion get in the way!
Believers! Do not take unbelievers as friends over fellow believers. Would you give Allah a clear reason to punish you? Quran 4:144
Misguided comment
So sweet couple . My bf is catholic but for him I am ready to be catholic
I have decided that Jesus really is Allah. I have decided that Muhammad was a false prophet and now I am a Christian. I worship Jesus as God now and Jesus give me a HolySpirit
i thought religion is sacred and you firmly believe in a god, but in their case they are like switching gods so easily
Nonsense. Mark 10:17-18 says Jesus is not God
Lovely couple and very romantic. May Allah bless both of you. Salam from UK
Betrayal i have not seen
🙏 Wishing Happiness to this Fated Couple! 🌷🌿 ... p.s. The Enlightened Beings taught that ... In reality , there is No Religions , only Teachings of Knowing the Universal Ways of Doing the Right Thing & according to DNA Test Kits >>> there is No Races , we are all were of Mixed Bloodlines but Related due to the many Family Trees Branchings over the Millennia! ... We only have different man made Countries & their respective customs or cultures! ... 🕯🌏💜🕊
Amazing couple
Alhamdulillah❤ may Allah blessing your marriage and life..
Mashallah this is a beautiful video..
Why must there always be a negative comment. Its true things wld be diff if its the other way ard but end of the day they are adults they make the choice lets just live and love one anthr
Faith is a journey...
My friend Converted to Islam after 54 years of Rock 'N Roll.
Dont let religion destroy love
love for god is the strongest love there is. Otherwise you need to look into your religion.
That’s the difference between the two religions. One is more understanding and universal in belief and loving in a way we respect each other. The other is bit more unforgiving and restrictive. No means no. Regardless of love and respect.
Lol no.
What is up with the Neg comments
its because islam and christianity contradicts each other . For example in islam it denies the death and resurrection of jesus christ which basically means christianity is a fake religion.
Lost soul.
I. Love my religion as a islam may Allah guide me until the end of my life thru the right path amiiin
Catholic or christian… brothers of the book. We worship same god. Atleast he is not buddhist or hindu right.,,
And i know christian/catholic chinese here resonates well with muslims. Or even jews. We same2.
I am from Pakistan Married with a fillipina.Many many good wishes for being Muslims and for their marriage. Stay blessed
She should be wearing a hijab but may Allah bless this couple.
