Marrying a woman to an innovator

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a woman's guardian to marry his daughter to an innovator?

Answer:
No, it is not permissible to marry an innovator. If his religious innovation (bid'ah) makes him a disbeliever, then it is unanimously agreed that it is not permissible. However, if his religious innovation is less than that, it is still disliked to marry him.
