If a husband and a wife both have their own religion, which means they have different religion. Would they be happily married? Although you can imagine some of the conflicts might occur between the two. They might found it with some difficult times to convince each other who is right or wrong. Don't you think so?

Yes, of course! A couple may have different religions and yet be happy about the relationship. It's all in the same understanding for the progress of the relationship and not really on their respective beliefs. For as long as there is love and respect for each other, they will still be happy.

well I guess being a couple means you respect each other in every way. And if you are particular with religion in choosing your partner then you cant be totally happy with that person that has different religion than yours. But for me It really doesnt matter to me that much as long as I love that person thats all that really matters and count in having a happy married life.

if they respect each other then yes. no one HAS to convince the other that something is right or wrong. couples are allowed to just get on with life while believing in different things. no one HAS to change to fit the other. if they respect each other then there doesn't have to be any conflict, unless one of them decides to make it a conflict.

There are conflicts, barriers and difficult times in every marriage, so long as they love each other, couple normally can overcome them. If either one or both are religious extremists, can not compromise and tolerate the other belief, then happily married will just be a wishful thinking. If one want his or her religion to dominate the other, thinking of oneself as a messiah or chosen one instead of just a human being living as husband n wife, then happily married will be hard to achieve than going to paradise.

i think there's nothing wrong with a couple who has different religions. what's important is that they love each other and they know how to settle the difference between them and their beliefs. they must learn about giving each other the chance to express himself/herself to the other because that's very important when it comes to a couple with different views.

Yes, it is possible because relationship not defined by relationship . It is defined by faith , it is defined by feeling and commitment towards each other.
