Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??bit of a fail here. you fail to remember that the balkan people are european and ooooh are also muslims specifically the bosnians. another thing there are just as much black muslims as arabs. moral of the story if you are going to take the mick out of islam you might aswell do it to asians,blacks and EUROPEANS!(Original post by Dirac Delta Function)
Most husbands seem pussy-whipped these days.
It would be terrible for Muslim men if Muslim women were allowed to marry non-Muslims. It's not like Asian and Arab men can compete with their European counterparts., but Asian and Arab women are frequently attractive and there will always be demand for them from European men. -

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??how on earth did you get negged for this?it was brief and concise.(Original post by SkyS0h1)
In Islam, the word of Allah is not questionable or negotiated with. We do what is commanded of us end of.
It seems like common sense to me though- the man/father is traditionally the head of the family. Women in Islam are taught to obey and respect their husbands in all matters that are good. If you were to marry a non-muslim it would cause unnecessary conflict particularly where children are concerned i.e. the way to raise them. In Islam we have an obligation to raise our children as good practicing Muslims which could be endangered if the father is not a good influence.
Also, in Islam we are encouraged to find a spouse who is good for your deen and will help you better yourself Islamically too. Such a husband/wife will be your partner both in this world and the hereafter and this is what any Muslim who truly loves someone wants. How can he love you if he doesnt love the one who created you? Muslims are supposed to 'love' for the sake of Allah and they are supposed to put the word of Allah and love him more than anything in this temprorary world.
And you can bag a really hot spanish latino whatever guy...so long as he's a Muslim...theyr not mutually exclusive
Hope Ive explained it a bit -

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??Didn't realise we'd have this level of sexism even in the 21st Century.(Original post by Bee3011)
Not really because Men will always be dominant no matter how strong a girl is therefore there is no exemption unless the boy decides to change his religion
Why would a girl ever basically accept that she is sub-human in comparisson to a guy?
Girl, god made males and females equal.
There's no such thing as 'men being dominant'. -

I understand what you mean but in Islam a woman is always one step below or behind a man...(Original post by PrismaticCore)

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??for non-practicing Muslims living in Europe, there is no problem at all - except with their families(Original post by Ivanka)
I've seen mixed couples hailing from Balkan, so it is definitely possible, but it's all up to local customs.
but, under Shariah, mixed marriages (Muslim female/non-Muslim male) are a total no-no, and simply non-valid : therefore, equivalent to zina (sex outside of marriage)
even worse : if a non-Muslim wife converts to Islam, she may be (according to the most common opinion) forcefully divorced from her non-Muslim husband, via legal proceedings
same if a Muslim man is declared an apostate, his Muslim wife may be forcefully divorced from him (the famous Nasr Abu Zayd case)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasr_Ab..._Abu_Zayd_case -

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??Okay, going back to your earlier post that I quoted, why are women one step below men? Do you think that women are less intelligent or is there another deficiency that you are referring to?(Original post by Bee3011)

They don't have a defficeincy and they're not less intelligent but as far as I know.... In Islam a woman is seen as below a man for e.g a man's testimony is seen as above a woman in Islam...(Original post by B-Man.)

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??I did say a lot, not all or even most(Original post by Sheldor)
As a girl with many female Muslim friends, I can assure you that the majority would, at worst, face a disappointed but eventually placated father.

Please dont try and insult my intelligence by saying this is how the majority of muslim fathers would react, world news tells me differently than the friends of a random forum poster in the UK -

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??Largely they are mutually exclusive though, vaaast majority are not muslim, so if you want to 'bag' enrique iglesias or whoever, you will have to become catholic, which will in turn lead you to become a target of a fatwa type death threat under backward islamic rules. All so stupid eh?(Original post by SkyS0h1)

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??What I am trying to say is that it isn't logical that a woman should be below a man, is it? It doesn't make sense to give more credibility to a man's testimony when, as you have said, a woman is not less intelligent. It doesn't make sense. Why would you believe in such an illogical belief?(Original post by Bee3011)

I am not trying to offend anyone and I must admit I don't know everything about my religion but I guess a few things just come down to belief and faith :-)(Original post by B-Man.)

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??I know it's a belief. That's why I am asking why you believe something that you, yourself, even acknowledge has no logical basis? If something isn't logical then that means it is false, hence you shouldn't believe in it.(Original post by Bee3011)

Re: Why can't Muslim women marry Non-Muslims??OP, i cant see your gender but if you are a male, do you want to marry a muslim girl or are just curious??
if i just say it from my point of view i would like to get married to a white birtish male but he would have to be a muslims. because that is what i follow and believe and i just dont see our marriage lasting if we cant agree on religion. but that is just me, and i know for sure i am getting married to a somalian guy because that is what my culture accepts anything else and i will be "shamed" and outcasted. but at the moment i am not attracted ti somali guys. that is just my opinion.
