To Malcolm

Hi Malcom,

That would be best for a Western woman, but it's very rare. When a Muslim man converts to Christianity, it's because HIS faith & mindset has changed, and not because the woman wants it.

As Luigi says, it's a radical change for him. Quite often, the family either cuts him off completely or some family members make a vow to find him and kill him.

Most Muslim men either want to stay within their comfort & safety zone or they want the woman to convert because they think she's faithless if she isn't a Muslimah.
