True Love: Man converts to Islam to marry Muslim wife

A man who goes by the name, Ossai, has converted to Islam in order to marry his Muslim bride, May Haidar because of his unquenchable love for her.

The tale was shared on social media by an Instagram user identified as Arewa Fashion and Style on Monday, November 21, 2022.

May Haidar who responded to a congratulatory remark under the post revealed that her father had initially been sceptical about his conversion and had feared he would revert to his old religion.

She wrote:

“I went to see my dad and told him about it, at first he was not happy cos he was skeptical about the convertion and scared if he would go back to his old religion. My dad finally accepted and we did an introduction 4th June and wedding preparations started, we were supposed to get married in October but he lost his mum so we shifted the date and Alhamdulillah it came to pass.”

The newly made bride took to her Instagram page to express happiness over her union:

“Alhamdulillah I get to share my life experiences with you ERKEGIM. I am grateful that we took the steps together amidst the trials, hurdles and difficulties of life … I know the life ahead won’t be all rosy, but with Allah we will be fine…. Thank you for sacrificing alot for me, I won’t take it for granted…. The best part of my existence is with you, for you and by you.”
