Madikeri, Jul 6: A husband has approached the police, seeking their help to get his wife back, as his in-laws are not allowing his wife to live with him and forcing him to convert to the religion of his wife, if he wants to live with his wife. This bizarre incident is reported from Kushalnagar of Kodagu district.

Siddalingaswamy and Shifa Hani married after having fallen in love with each other. However, now the parents of Shifa have objected to their marriage and are not allowing Shifa to join Siddalingaswamy. In addition, they have asked Siddalingaswamy to convert to Islam, if he wants to live with Shifa.

Siddalingaswamy and Shifa Hani got married with mutual consent after having a relationship for seven years. However, the parents of Shifa, who took her home during Ramzan, did not send her back to Siddalingaswamy. Now they are forcing him to get converted, if he wants to live with Shifa.

Siddalingaswamy, a resident of Tirumalapur of Piriyapatna of Mysuru district was working as an auto driver at Kushalnagar of Kodagu district. He fell in love with Shifa Hani of Halaganahalli and got married to him on January 19 at Male Mahadeshwara Hills and led a family life together for five months. However, Shifa's parents took her home for Ramzan fasting and did not send her back after Eid.

On the other end, Shifa, who is desperate without Siddalingaswamy, has sent a video in which she is drinking a disinfectant liquid saying that she cannot live without Siddalingaswamy.

Now Siddalingaswamy has approached Byluguppe police and registered a complaint that he needs his wife. Police are investigating further.

As girl knew when she married but still out of love she married,and parents knew it.Later with the name of feast they locked her in their house and started to terrorize him? why cant girl strongly resist it and go back to her husband?OR she too is backing her parents?One cant simply arrest one against her will in house. It is a very tricky plan from parents.one can be happy only when she /he converts?He never asked her to convert .otherwise everyone would abuse ,accuse hindu people.Best is children should know what they have to face when want to marry other religious partner,specially in India .let alone other caste.I hope girl will not undertake any risky step because of parents conversion thema.Police should handle it fast not something gone wrong.

When a Muslim man can marry any number of non Muslim women there are no issues with conversion but when Muslim woman marries a non Muslim then he has to convert...it's nothing but hypocrisy.

I know a very liberal family where the father is a Muslim, mother a Christian, their son chose to follow his mother’s religion and married a Hindu girl; all following their respective religions. I’m told the grandson is yet to choose his religion. Here in this case if the husband is reluctant to convert let him go to janaam. Why should he be forced to convert when the wife is free to follower her religion.

Police also want to investigate that this agenda of saffron organization targeting to spoil other religion girls life. and saffron leaders are saying publicly that if Hindu youth spoiling other religion girls they will pay like 1 Lac. So careful after marriage may be later they will send her to prostitution.

Concerning to interfaith marriages my perception is:
A Jain boy /a Jain girl must marry a Jain girl/ a Jain boy.
A Sikh boy /a Sikh girl must marry a Sikh girl/ a Sikh boy.
A Hindu boy /a Hindu girl must marry a Hindu girl/ a Hindu boy.
A Jewish boy /a Jewish girl must marry a Jewish girl/ a Jewish boy.
A Muslim boy /a Muslim girl must marry a Muslim girl/ a Muslim boy.
A Buddhist boy /a Buddhist girl must marry a Buddhist girl/ a Buddhist boy.
A Christian boy /a Christian girl must marry a Christian girl/ a Christian boy.

This will keep up theirs heart's deep rooted one's faith or one's religion intact and will not dwindle faith in the troubled times of their married life.

Despite the above the society will not speak of ill about he or she ran away with his and her son/daughter with a Hindu, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Jain or a Sikh boy or a girl.

ONCE THE INTERFAITH IS ACCEPTED BY ANYONE THEY MUST KNOW THE FOLLOWING WITHOUT FAILURE PRIOR TO YOUR MARRIAGE:

1) After the marriage which faith would you like to follow???!!!
2) Which faith's name you would like to give to your child???!!!
3) Which temple, Church, Mosque, Synagogue you are going to attend???!!!
4) Which God you would like follow and worship; a Christian God, Islamic God, Sanatan God, Buddhist God or a Sikh God???!!!
5) After the death which Grave you wanted to be buried???!!! A Christian cemetery, a Hindu Pyre, A Muslim Cemetery, A Jewish Cemetery, Buddhist, Jain or a Sikh???!!!
6) Are you baptising, Circumcising, or not following both???!!!

FIRST CONFIRM ABOVE POINTS BEFORE FALLING IN LOVE AND AGREEING TO INTERFAITH MARRIAGE.

MY SUGGESTION IS THAT: MARRY A GIRL OR A BOY FROM YOUR OWN FOLLOWED FAITH OR RELIGION PRIOR TO GOING FOR WEDLOCK IN THE INTERFAITH MARRIAGE.

Muslims often quote that there is no compulsion in religion. The girl here has come out of her religion she should be left to herself. Faith's should not be one way street.

One India one law.
Let the court decide and not the parents of the girl to impose rule on the married couple.
They are love and they have united in matrimonial bond.
Let the parents realize that arrogant attitude will not bring any on the part of their daughter.
Let them lead a happy married life for ever.

In Islam there is no permission to marry a person from another religion until the person converts. And is not something new. Islam as a religion is too strong and there are no loopholes or compromises like any other religion.
She can choose her parents or the man she loves. Parents can try to convince her or leave her alone and let her go.

The police should take immediate action. Forceful conversion is against the law. Using his wife as bait and forcing the man to convert is a criminal offence. Let the couple live together. If the girls parents wants to cut off their relation is upto them. But forcibly keeping them apart is wrong.

Yes of course. As per Qur'an "there is no compulsion in Religion",
So they can't force the groom to convert and even can't compel the bride to remain confined to Islam. She should be at liberty to chose the way she prefers.

The recent Fatwa, issued against a muslim MP from West Bengal, TMC, Nusrat Jahan, for Hindu tradition, following her marriage brings out a similar grim and unfathomable divide in Indian society....This segregation is seen in all walks of life...... Even in metropolis cities there is a strict, no go zones, between Hindus and Muslims, communities !!!!! Parents must realise, that they are residing in a multi religious, society, such union are unavoidable.... Let the blissful couples, Live and let live !!!!!!

Girls forget to think about their parents and family, the level of humiliation the family has to go through. When the same marriage fails its girls parents who would support her and again rebuilt her life. I don't know why girls are so interested in going against their family and getting married to someone knowing very well their family will not accept.

What makes u think arranged marriages are successful these days? Regardless of religion, It is better to marry for love rather than social status...somewhere down the line, the marriage bonds and trust issues will weaken....Statistically in India, in current scenario, many extra-marital affairs happen between couples who have had arranged marriage rather than love marriage...
My own catholic cousin who is married to a hindu and have kids are better off than my other cousin who got arrange married to boy from same catholic religion and now seperated...

A:A Dubai,I give you right.Many arranged marraiges are not lasting nowadays.One boy from far or a girl,without knowing their real character shows later what they are .One should know whether they match in character or when one is sick.,or gets problem with finance.Previously arranged marraiges functioned because girl had no other option to go away without any education,or parents didnt accept her and sent back .but they suffered.I know it from my own family..

Where was the father of the girl sleeping during the 7 years when his daughter was romancing with the boy and their marriage further? Shame on you, now you compel the boy to convert.

Because of your poor upbringing and unsupervised approach of children is the reason for this mess.

Better for the girl to continue with her husband or else no one will come forward to marry her again.

Stake holders of Hindu community always there for agenda. Ever since Modi came to power in 2014 Saffron jihad, saffron terror like mob lynchings, atrocities against minorities and dalits has been marginally excelerated. UN and international community already condemned over the incidents and as we all know CIA also declared VHP and BD as a terror organization. Modi slogan SAB KA SAATH SAB KA VIKAS still remained a eternal jumla.

No doubt, it is forbidden for a Muslim girl to marry anyone other than a Muslim. She was in relationship with the Hindu boy for 7 years and now after marrying, parents are not allowing to go to him, even when she showed a video consuming disinfectant.

I know a Catholic boy who fell in love with a Hindu girl. Since, the boy's family is very rich and respectable, they tried to dissuade the boy to marry that girl. But, the moment, the boy said he would commit suicide, if they do not allow him to marry her, everyone shut their mouth and they are living happily after marriage.

I think parents of Shifa are Islamic fundamentalists. They have to see the present condition in the world and try to adjust.

We understand agony of parents. No one wants there children marry-off there family members to person from other caste or religion. As they are already married cannot able to keep there daughter forcefully as she is adult and an offense. Parents even no problem if daughter take any unwanted steps by taking disinfectant liquid. Looks like love start from auto itself. kehna hi kya ek anjaan se...
