Sunita Marshall on Husband’s Request to Accept Islam

Sunita Marshall, the talented actress who recently appeared as Samra in ARY Digital’s hit drama Sher, shared her thoughts on a personal and sensitive topic. Sher premiered on May 21, 2025, and features Sunita alongside an impressive cast including Danish Taimoor and Sarah Khan in a story full of family conflict and emotional drama. Her strong and mature performance in this series has brought her back into the spotlight.

In a heartfelt interview, Sunita opened up about her marriage to actor Hassan Ahmed and addressed a question that has sparked public curiosity: his request for her to convert to Islam. The couple, who married in both a Muslim and Christian ceremony in 2009 and share two children, have always shown mutual respect across religious differences. Sunita revealed that before their wedding, she felt welcome in his family and was not pressured to convert—a gesture she deeply appreciated and which made the relationship feel natural and respectful.

Sunita recounted that following a traumatic event—Hassan being kidnapped and then returning safely—he later expressed his desire for her to convert. She responded with unwavering honesty: while she respected his wish, she would only consider converting “when my heart truly embraces it.” She emphasized that conversion shouldn’t be forced and that genuine faith must come from the heart. Hassan understood her perspective and said he also wanted her “to accept Islam wholeheartedly,” not just outwardly .

This exchange offers a powerful lesson on love, respect, and patience: real harmony in a marriage can thrive through understanding, not pressure. Sunita’s firmness and honesty in her response showcased the importance she places on sincerity and spiritual authenticity.
