text: i converted to islam a few yrs ago. at the time i was dating a man who was "muslim." the day i converted i put on my hijab and told him we couldnt see each other any more, but we could talk about marriage later. he told me that he would never marry me unless i took off my hijab. he had also hit me and said very degrading things to me that week. so i left him and told him i never wanted to see him again. 2 months later i found out i was pregnant. b/ he was not a true muslim and i knew he did not want to get married, i decided we should place the baby for adoption. we found a wonderful muslim family who could not have children and they are raising him. but it is an islamic adoption so we still see them.  i want to get married soon and i'm wondering, muslim men, if you knew a girl who u liked and was a good muslimah in my position... would you marry her?  i wont hide my son and put the burden of my mistake on him. and i won't spend my life repenting to another human. i repent only to allah. there is no need for politeness i only want to know what to expect.  salam i would.  welcome to islam.  in islam, when you accept islam, all your past sins are forgiven and you start afresh.  you did the right thing by leaving that abusive man and i respect your bravery and faith.
