Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: My sister is a Christian and I have invited her to Islam. Mm. He says: My sister is a Christian and I have invited her to Islam, and I see in her an inclination to that, and now she wants to get married and have the contract performed in the church. His question is: Is it permissible for me to attend and enter with them into this church and congratulate her on this marriage, knowing that I am pleased with this action? What do you advise?
Answer:
She is marrying a disbeliever. Do not go with him and do not attend. But if she wants to embrace Islam and marry a Muslim, go with her, even if the contract is in the church, provided it is according to the Book of Allah and the Sunnah of His Messenger, even if it is in the church. Yes.
