Marriage to Women of the Book When There Is Fear of Apostasy for the Children
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: May Allah reward you. I have heard from our scholars that marriage to women of the book is permissible, but in Muslim minorities, this may lead to the children apostatizing from Islam due to the strength of the system there. So, is it permissible for us to marry women of the book in this case?
Answer:
My brother, even if marrying a Muslim woman leads to harm, you do not marry her, so how about a non-Muslim woman? If this leads to harm, avoid it. Yes.
