Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I am a young man who married a Christian woman, and she attends the Friday prayer and the festivals with me, hoping for her guidance. However, she asks me to go to the church so that the priest can bless our marriage, just for the sake of a formal appearance. Is it permissible for me to go with her?
Answer:
No, it is not permissible for you to go with her, and the priest does not bless you. The devil is not the priest; he has no blessing. The blessing is from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). So do not go with her, and hate her religion with intense hatred. Yes.
