Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is a Muslim woman who marries a disbeliever considered a disbeliever who has apostatized from Islam?
Answer:
No, she is not considered a disbeliever; she is considered to have committed a forbidden act, unless she intentionally said that what contradicts this is lawful, in which case she becomes a disbeliever. But if she did not know that this makes her a disbeliever, she is ignorant.
