I am of the understanding that naturally Muslims should marry Muslims as that is the ideal situation…so dont give answers referring to how the child will be raised etc because i am well aware of these arguments…
I am also well aware of the fact that as Muslims we are permitted to marry Christians and Jews as they are ehle kitab…
Now my questions pertains to the marriage of a Muslim to someone who doesnt subscribe to formal religion as such but believes in god so is monotheistic…she is not an idolator and accepts god and has an idea of heaven and hell…she just doesnt believe in the Bible, Torah or the Quran…
So can a Muslim man marry a woman who believes in God but doesnt subscribe to any particular religion?
Re: Muslim Man marrying someone who doesnt acknowledge religion...
Well many people might not buy into the Quran or other holy books for some particular reason, although they might agree with the rest of what the Quran/other books say. I guess it depends on exactly where she disagrees with the organized religions.
Re: Muslim Man marrying someone who doesnt acknowledge religion...
And it depends on how the verses are written - does it say clearly that you can marry a believing woman and if not her then a ahle-kitab, leaving no mention of any other option? Or does it just say "believing women"...from what I remember its the former...
someone please reference the right verses? If it specifically says ahl-e-kitaab OR muslim woman, then there is no room for anything else...sorry.
Re: Muslim Man marrying someone who doesnt acknowledge religion...
Well...from my understanding you can marry someone who is of the book...as to whether the Christians and Jews today are of the book is another story...
I'm just interested in whether a Muslim can marry someone who says they just believe in a creator but dont actually accept any prescribed religion...Allah says we are permitted to marry ehle kitaab and forbids idolators...what for people than fit neither?
