Asalamalaikum
I was just wondering why we muslims (most muslims) look a young couple who are holding hands like this [img]style_emoticons/default/mad.gif[/img] or like this [img]style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif[/img] or this [img]style_emoticons/default/dry.gif[/img]. Me and my husband are still newly weds and we are both very young alhamdulilah. The stares that we have recieved from Muslims is really amazing, people will stop what they are doing, the husband will tap the wife's shoulder as in "see this disaster". The Men will stand and watch us. With this look [img]style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif[/img] . One time a group of Middle-eastern Guys came as a group to just look at us. Some of them had their hands on their mouth as in what a shame. Also because my husband is American European they automaticly assume that he's a kafir.
Me and My husband went somewherre with a friend of mine and her Brother & Mother. When we were saying salam and our day had ended, the Mother said to me, Oh I could almost feel how evil the people were thinking, you both are soo young, people assume that he's your boyfriend and that you are having a haram relationship with a nonmuslim. I said Alhamdulilah that they are not our judge.
Why do people always think of something disasterous when they see two young muslims who probably aren't of the same culture or nationality immediately people assume that we are upto no Good.
My cousin is married to a Bosnian Brother and mashaAllah she's 20 and he's 20. She's 6 months pregnant. She always tells me how people always give her the evils when they see them shopping together or anywhere else in public, and i'm not talking about non-muslims, i'm talking about Muslims. She was telling me how she believes in the evil eye and she fears that people's stares might cause her to fall or injure herself and lose her baby.
