Marrying a Non-Muslim

Assalaamoalaikum, hope everyone’s fine..

my question is if a muslim male can get married to a non-muslim female den how come a muslim female cannot get married to a non-muslim male??

“Allah Subhanah has made it permissible for a believing man to marry a righteous woman from amongst the People of the Book (the Jews and the Christians); but has absolutely forbidden a believing woman to marry a non-believer, unless he converts to Islam.”

Allah says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 221 (part): Do not wed your women to ‘mushrik’ men, unless they believe.

hope u guyz can help me on this,
thanks in advance…

The reason Muslim women can't marry non-Muslim man is b/c children usually follow the father's religion. The father is the head of the family...in most families, his religion and it's practices are what's observed in the home. And thus, if a Muslim woman marries a non-Muslim man, odds are that the children will follow the father's religion and not Islam.

If can be EXTREMELY dangerous for a muslim girl to marry a non-muslim as this two couple found out:

THEY WERE HACKED TO DEATH!

The quran is a dangerous book in the hands of ignorants.

In Islam men are allow to marry with non muslim(but only Ihl-e-kitab like christian and jews)
Why is he allowed?? just because his childrens will be muslim.. but muslim women cant marry with non muslims
cuz her children would be non muslim.. she can marry him only if she can convert her busband to muslim


aaj bhi ho gar ibrahim ka iman paida
aag ker sakti hei undaaz-e-gulistan paida

Translated:
"That's the right way to treat such girls!"
Well said yaar! The majority, I am sure, will agree with you.
And, what is Nadia_H saying in the thread called:BASIC ISLAM
"Radical Islam is an oxymoron; there are only some radical muslims!"

Actually, Nadia_H,
Islam stands for peace is an Oxymoron!

Orthodox Islam is RADICAL right down to its very core!

Sorry, I take my words back, that ws just me thinking in a typical pathan way…

…But what she did was zina (adultery), the marriage was not valid according to Islam and if she’d been in a Islamic country then I think she should’ve been punished according to Shariah, but in this case it was wrong that her family took the law into there own hands, they should’ve just disowned her or sumthin’ and let her live…

If there is true love between the woman and the man, then allah can be ignored for a moment.

If you love the man, and he loves you, it is ok to leave Islam (or any other religion)

most of the countries follow secular laws
regarding marriage . there is no universal
law in 21 st century than a aman and women cant marry. if you justify your law others can justify their law in their own land where muslims are minority.

ISLAM is a practical religion.
I dunno why guys here are so concerned abt women rights when girls themselves completely in agreement with them.

it is because they r guys and we are girls...we know our own psychology better...i will never feel comfortable if i were to be married to sum
non-muslim...why...because of the obvious reason that children are more prone to take sfter their father's religion than their mother...again why...because after marriage the guy doesn't come to the bride's house...bride goes to the groom's...so the children grow up in the enviornment of their paternal family, and enviorment contributes alot to ones beliefs.

no paki prince actually u were thinking like a typical desi, dat’s wut they all do n dat’s wut they all think..well not all but most of them..
there wuz another case of dis, a muslim girl married a christian guy, but her parents n brothers din’ go n kill her, instead they tried to tell her how wrong it wuz, explained everythin n warned her but still when she went against it they din’t go kill her neither did they torture her..
n her relatives too they didn’t go bugg them hurt them or anything they just left her alone never talked to her again and that wus it.

well kumarakn everyone has their own opinion n ur opinion is to leave religion for love well den it’s up to u. n i myself don’t believe that cuz islam comes before anything..accordin to me dat is..

enchanted good reasons..thanks

n jazakallah to all the other people too

I'd certainly be more interested in a better everlasting life(afterlife) then a better short mortal life...
So no...its not fine to ignore Allah or leave Islam.
If you do so then u never really believed in it.....

He makes a good point!
Would you stay in a school that openly preaches to "hate the Muslims" to its students?

Then, WHY must you stay in a religion that is based on HATE!

i couldn't resist........i just had to say it.................plz don't mind.........but seriously malick it seems that u r the most hate filled of all the ppl on this forum.

But isn't it true that children are closer to their mothers than they are to their fathers? Its more probable that the child will follow the mother's religion?
Just a thought...

Not if they are forced to follow Islam which is the case in most Muslim countries.

Well Islam asks alot from a person...a few thigs i'll tell:

  1. 5 times prayer a day
  2. zakat (charity in the name of Allah)
  3. fasting
  4. haj (pilgramage for those who can afford)
  5. halal food

Now if a non-muslim girl comes into a muslim family...she wouldn't have much trouble because she doesn't have to do anyy of the above.

BUT if a muslim woman goes to a non-muslim's house...do u really think she would have the power to giv Zakat..these matters are in the hands of husband same is the case with halal food...if all the family members eat no-halal would she be able to provide halal food for herself and kids. Fasting and prayers are not easy things...and many muslims don't do them eventhough their parents are good muslims do u believe it would be an easy job for a single muslim in the household to teach her children things which her hasband doesnot believe in?
And lastly haj...if her husband isn''t a muslim..he wouldn't go to haj...if he is very nice then he might provide for the journey but if not ? then what...even if her husband can afford it?

these are little little things...islam is not only a religion...it is a complete code of life ...it tells u all what to do from the time u wake to the time u go to sleep. WEll i guess it would be very hard for the lady to carry out her duties properly..let alone teach her children what islam is all about.

Wonderingand waiting...who told u we are forced to follow islam...as far as my parents are concerned they never forced me...but i have become a good muslim by doing my own research...and those who don't do it...and just mimick what their parents have told them and never do any effort by themselves to really know islam...they rarely get to know the truth abt it.
