In the face of growing strain over their religious differences, Adnan's pleas take on a new level of intensity when he speaks to his pregnant wife, Tigerlily, on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? As the birth of their child approaches, Adnan makes a sincere and tense appeal, stressing the importance of her potentially accepting Islam. Adnan implores Tigerlily,

"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."

The central conflict is depicted in this scene: Adnan maintains that their family's unity depends on her accepting his beliefs. At the same time, concerns regarding autonomy, timing, and cultural expectations are brought up by the emphasis on her faith conversion prior to childbirth.

Within the confines of reality TV drama, this plotline not only touches on personal husband-wife dynamics but also raises concerns about identity, control, and what it means to combine multiple religious beliefs under one roof.


Adnan’s concern for shared faith with Tigerlily intensifies on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?


Concern for their baby’s religious foundation

As he struggles with the impending birth of his child and the part religion will play in their future, Adnan's plea on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? feels more urgent. He expresses genuine worry over their child's upbringing in a single tearful moment. He says to his wife on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? preview,

"We did everything you want, but we didn’t do everything I want. I’m still worried about my baby’s religion.”

This declaration exposes the importance he places on spiritual continuity in addition to unfulfilled expectations. Adnan's concern stems from his strong conviction that their family's identity should be centered on their faith rather than control. His remarks highlight how the issue of "who shapes my child's spiritual journey" becomes profoundly personal when cultures and faiths are blended.


The weight of spiritual legacy

The series depicts Adnan's attempts to guide his child's religious path, but it also teases deeper worries, such as those related to mortality and uncertainty, through another confession. In a moving plea, 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Adnan's emotional worry is brought to light,

“Who will be teaching him the religion? What if I am dying tomorrow or something happened to me? He will going to drink. He will going to hang out [in] bad places. He will do bad things. He will be a killer."

The emphasis here is on legacy rather than philosophy. Adnan is considering the potential that his absence would leave their child without a spiritual foundation; thus, he is not just suggesting religious alignment.

In addition to highlighting the emotional complexity that arises when faith, family, and reality combine on reality TV, it also exposes his vulnerability as a parent, divided between hope and fear.
