Is it permissible to perform the marriage contract in a church?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to perform the marriage contract in a church, given that the system of the country in their land requires that it be documented there, and then we perform it outside as a Shari'ah contract?

Answer:
The Muslims go to the Islamic center, the Islamic reference point. What does it mean, approximately, that there is a state or a country of disbelief that does not have Muslims, with a reference point and a center to which they go, and they do not go to the church.
