I beg to differ. External factors do matter, as does religion, culture, values, beliefs etc. Love goes out the window when there are financial pressures or cultural pressures. Yes islam does allow the inter-racial marriages but trust me its not as easy as one would like to believe. It is always better to marry someone who shares your culture and religion than having the extra stress on a marriage of having to make adjustments which one resents at some point. love is secondary. It is not the be all and end all in a marriage.
Samnizi what do mean by saying that just because one is not allowed to marry outside their culture it inevitably leads to affairs??? I don’t get it. There is no justification for having illicit relations. Not the inter mingling of opp. sexes, and certainly not because the women are not allowed to marry outside their culture.
Women can be both independent and modern and religious, keeping their moral dignity intact. Who says you can’t be successful in both worlds without being immoral?

I agree.
