What is the ruling on a Muslim woman who married a Christian young man?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Our Shaykh, a Muslim woman, meaning a Muslim girl, married a Christian young man. She remained a Muslim, and her husband remained a Christian. What is her ruling?

The Shaykh : Do you mean what is her ruling in this world or in the Hereafter?

The questioner : The legal ruling regarding her, whether in this world or the Hereafter.
The student : In this world and the Hereafter.

The Shaykh : I am afraid this is what the question is about now.

The questioner : Her ruling in this world.

The Shaykh : Her ruling in this world. From my perspective, the ruling is issued, so is this from me or from someone else?
The student : The legal ruling.
Another student : Excuse me, they do not actually contract the marriage for them in the first place. The scholars contract the legal marriage.

The Shaykh : This has nothing to do with the fatwa, my brother. It has nothing to do with the judiciary. The judiciary, when it is a legal judiciary, first and foremost separates them.

The questioner : Yes, exactly.

The Shaykh : Because this is not a marriage, it is not a marriage, it is not a marriage. Therefore, separation is necessary. But who separates them? The one seeking the fatwa?

The questioner : The judge.

The Shaykh : The judge. So, in a case like this, if there is a judge who rules by what Allah has revealed, it is brought to him, and he separates them despite the noses of the so-called spouses. In the Hereafter, she has painful punishment. In this world, after the separation, the legal judge disciplines her and punishes her. But your question today has no effect, because there is more open sinfulness and lewdness happening, and no one can rule, because the ruling is a ruling by other than what Allah has revealed.

The questioner : May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh: Is it clear?

The questioner : Clear, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh : Yes, may Allah reward you with good. Our companion is still speaking.

The questioner : I will continue. Yes, how is it that the judge himself wrote for them without asking if you are Muslim or not? How is it that the judge, in the first place, is being mocked? They told him, "This one is a Muslim," and so on.
The student : Impossible.

The questioner : He does not write for him.
