Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
please tell me how what u stated is a fact? and provide references.
no country in the World has declared them non-muslim like the qadiyanis.
so essentially you are either ignorant or severely arrogant and beleive your wahabi version of islam is what the prophet (pbuh) desired for the ummah (in which case you’d be DEAD WRONG).
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Anil Khan you are doing something similar to what imxtraordinary did....Bashing Wahabis doesnt make you any less ignorant or severly arrogant.
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
wahabis qadiani isamili..man gt over it
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
anil are u ismaili?
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
^ i have respect for the sect as they have done enormous things for Pakistan - and now specially in the northern areas where young children most of whom are girls are getting educated.
Criticizing them and calling them non-muslim is firstly NOT TRUE as they believe in One Allah and his last Rasool and two, it would be like stabbing them in the back after they (Quaid and Sir Sultan Mohmmad Shah) gave us Pakistan.
May Allah bless are pak zameen, ameen 
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
I think its awesome, you go girl
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
the biggest problem with muslims internally is that there are so many people who feel compelled to condemn other muslims for "not being muslim" or "not acting muslim enough"
and you wonder why there become so many non-practicing muslims, when there are people there criticizing your every move. instead of focusing on whether or not ismailis are muslims or not, or blah blah blah, why dont you focus on yourself and your own islamiyaat and let Allah swt deal with the rest of the world.
dont you know there are hadith out there that basically stated that a man who sinned so much but wasnt arrogant was sent to heaven but a man who was perfect in action but arrogant and judgmental in terms of who did good deeds and who didn't was sent to hell.
seriously. only Allah swt knows what's in the heart. read the story of Musa pbuh and Khizr in the Qur'an and you will see that many things are not what they seem. IF THE PROPHETS LEARNED SUCH A LESSON, THEN WHO ARE WE TO NOT BE OPEN TO LEARNING THE SAME KINDS OF LESSONS!
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
X2, if a muslim lady daoes that, she would not become non-muslim, she will still be a muslim who is commiting Zina
and before some one jumps to the guns, no she would not be subjected to stoned to death, only 100 lashes unless she was married to a muslim and without divorce, ran away with a non-muslim. ** EVen a muslim guy cannnot marry a non-muslim. The only exception is Jew and Christian lady, if she agrees that kids would be raised mulims. ** Converting to Islam for any reason is OK. Many people during the time of prophet converted to Islam because of fear of loosing life when they became prisoner of war
Thank you thank you thank you! I am surprised to see that no one else (especially those that are upset at the fact that Muslim males can marry non-Muslim females) mentioned it. A Muslim male cannot marry a female of just any religion, she must believe in the books (i.e. Jew or Christian).
If you want to do things your way, why bring poor Islam in between and try to justify your act through religion
Agree. As someone else said, just because many do something wrong, it does not make the action right. Islam says Muslim women are not allowed to marry non-Muslim men, period. You still wanna do it? Sure, go ahead, but don't try to back it up by bringing Islam in it because Islam has a very clear stance on it.

You have to be careful with that to because nowadays many christians and jews arent considered "people of the book" because many dont follow the old testament.....many have created their own form of christianity and judaism.

True. The best is to marry someone from your own religion. They will have to answer whether they are Muslim of words only or actions as well. That's between them and Allah. You can try to guide them to the straight path, but that certainly does not give anyone (guy or girl) a free pass to marry someone outside of religion. Guys should marry girls outside of religion only when it's extremely necessary, not sure when that would be, but perhaps for greencard purposes? My personal opinion on that is that don't screw the girl, if you marry someone for greencard, marry them for good as you would marry a girl of your own culture.
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Out of curiosity, could someone please post the reference to the fact that Muslim men are allowed to marry people of the book and whether or not the reference includes who women can and cannot marry?
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Also, those that are saying love makes you do this (marry a non-Muslim guy)...I would like to remind you that this is exactly why Islam prohibits mixing of opposite genders and this is exactly why one should not meet the opposite gender for dating purpose. If you wouldn't give devil a chance to cook something, he won't. "Love" happens when you meet someone enough and get to know them etc. If you follow religion to begin with, you wouldn't come to this point where you must marry outside of religion.
I don't think I need to say this but I would still say: Yes you wouldn't wanna marry someone without getting to know them, but that should take place in the presence of a mehram. And for business dealings, of course you can deal with the opposite gender, but you should be in your limits and boundaries, religiously speaking.
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Of course you can google this information and you will see different/detailed answers, but I always consult this website, hence I’ll post the links from this website:
Can a Muslim woman marry a non-Muslim man?
Can a Muslim woman marry a non-Muslim hoping he would embrace Islam?
Muslim women can’t even marry Jews or Christians
I think this best answers your questions:
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
just wondering about opinions: do you think a muslim woman marrying a non-muslim man is a major or minor sin?
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
^ It's interesting because none of the Quranic text that is quoted actually says that a Muslim man can marry a non-Muslim woman (be she Christian or Jew). In fact, one of the passages uses the same description for both men and women.
It's simply patriarchal society that has interpreted to be lenient for men (big shock).
Anyway, this is a debate for a different thread. But the focus on women being bound by rules and punished when men are not is sickening.
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
just wondering about opinions: do you think a muslim woman marrying a non-muslim man is a major or minor sin?
Major. When a Muslim woman marries a non-Muslim man, the marriage is invalid. When she has sexual intercourse with him, it is considered zina since the marriage is not valid to begin with. Zina is a major sin and has sever punishments, in this life and in the after-life, unless repented.
Re: Muslim women marrying non-muslim Men
Why is it invalid? What is the reason behind it being invalid?
This is quote from Quran....
**“And give not (your daughters) in marriage to Al‑Mushrikoon till they believe (in Allaah Alone) and verily, a believing slave is better than a (free) Mushrik (idolater), even though he pleases you. Those (Al-Mushrikoon) invite you to the Fire, but Allaah invites (you) to Paradise and forgiveness by His Leave, and makes His Ayaat (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to mankind that they may remember” **
**[al-Baqarah 2:221]* *
So if a Christian man says that he only believes in God and considers Jesus only a Prophet, is marrying such Christian still haram, why so when he only believes in the oneness of God?
And Jews already believe in the oneness of God, so how would marrying a Jew makes the marriage invalid?
As Sehar said in Quran, it is not specified Jew or Christian. All it says that the person has to believe in the oneness of Allah/God.

This ayat is about what kind of women a man can marry.
