I’m a 28-year-old Hindu woman, and I’m deeply in love with a Muslim man. My parents are against an interfaith marriage and want me to marry someone from our community. If I do marry a Hindu man, would it be possible to separate within a year and marry my Muslim friend? He’s in a powerful position, could that make a separation easier? What if he doesn’t want to divorce? I haven’t told my Muslim friend about my plan – should I? How can I marry him in the first place, and how do I convince my parents? I’m worried about their reputation in our community.

It’s illegal to marry someone with the intention of divorcing them later. You cannot use marriage as a tool to bypass your parents’ objections. Also, a person’s position of power doesn’t make divorce easier. You should have open and honest communication with your partner before making any decisions. It’s best to have a mature discussion with your parents about your feelings and desires, and understand their concerns.
