Dear Massi, I've been going out with my boyfriend for about 10 months. We have a lot of fun together but since Ramadan started he has gotten into this ultra religious mode.

He barely texts me and when he does he has now started lecturing me.

He says I shouldn't be taking selfies and posting pictures on Instagram during Ramadan as it is haram.

I was like, who made you the social media fatwa maker?

I'm fasting too, but at least I am making an effort with him.

Massi Says, It seems that your boyfriend is using the month of Ramadan to focus on his spirituality.

Although his delivery may seem harsh, it seems his intention is a sincere one and he wants you to do the same.

However, adopting a more religious stance is a personal decision and you cannot be coerced into behaving in this way.

Ask him clearly what it is he wants from this relationship and determine whether you are willing to compromise for him.
