Adnan Abdelfattah has one big request for Tigerlily Taylor Abdelfattah before they welcome their first baby together.
In Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek of the Sunday, August 10, episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? Adnan practically begs his wife to convert to Islam.
“We did everything you want, but we didn’t do everything I want,” he says in the preview. “I’m still worried about my baby’s religion.”
While Tigerlily believes that their baby boy will be born Muslim because his dad is Muslim, Adnan argues that more needs to be done.
“Who will be teaching him the religion? What if I am dying tomorrow or something happened to me?” he asks. “I don’t want him to be, like, American boy. He will going to drink. He will going to hang out [in] bad places. He will do bad things. He will be a killer.”
Visibly shocked by her husband’s fears, Tigerlily tries to reassure him that he has nothing to worry about. Adnan, however, isn’t convinced.
“Don’t tell me that!” he tells his wife. “It’s the last chance before the baby coming to convert you to be a Muslim mother. I told you it’s not hard. Just say, like, two or three words and believing inside you and you will start to know more about my religion. It’s not, like, a big deal.”

Before she makes her decision, Tigerlily asks for some clarification and tries to understand why Adnan is so passionate about his belief.
“So, in your mind, I’m not going to be a good wife or a good mother unless I do it right now?” she asks.
Adnan replies, “You don’t have a belief. This is for you. I want to survive you. I want you to believe. I want to save you.”
While viewers will have to keep watching to see what Tigerlily decides, the couple had the opportunity to debut their baby on a January episode of Before the 90 Days Tell All.
The pair announced their son Zeyn Eleven was born on August 29 and measured 20.1 inches long.
“Luxury is having all my favorite people in one place, the five of us, poolside in the Hill Country, making memories under the Texas sun,” Tigerlily — who shares two kids from a previous relationship — wrote via Instagram on Tuesday, August 12, during a family vacation to Camp Fimfo. “The kids are splashing, laughing and leaving little wet footprints on warm stone while the breeze smells like summer. Nature sets the scene, but family is the masterpiece… and these are the days we’ll remember forever ☀️🏞️💦.”
