^Thank you again, TW. Wow, it’s news to me that the Quran does not state that men can marry women Of the Book. I’ll have to research the matter further. The Quran does say that men are allowed to marry chaste women from the People of the book. But it also forbids marrying idolators. So it leads to the question as to whether Christians are considered idolators/mushriks because of the divinity they attribute to Jesus. I don’t know what the majority stance of scholars is on this matter.

I think I confused you it DOES say Muslim men can marry people of the book! I hope I didn’t say otherwise! I apologise for any mistakes.

@vroom I’m not Salafi. And the debate isn’t a Salafi one.
