Why can't a Muslimah marry a Jew of a Christian? (Split)

[Dreamer]

^Wrora, please rephrase. =)



''And the Jews say: Ezra is the son of Allah, and the Christians say: The Messiah is the son of Allah. That is their saying with their mouths. They imitate the saying of those who disbelieved of old. Allah (Himself) fighteth against them. How perverse are they!'' [Sura At-Tawba 9:30]

some jews said it like some christians say about christ.... bare in mind that arian christianity was very popular in prophets time and they opposed trinitarian views

[Dreamer]

HEAR O ISRAEL, THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE.....
that sums up orthodox jewish views
ps my uncle was married to a jewish lady so I think I knw a tad more about jewish beliefs than most
though she herself was religious she did the odd festival etc like yom kippor and shabaat once in a while

[Dreamer]

one sect did... its dead now and was on the verge of extinction at prophets time... it was a minor insignificant sect.... basically the belief stemmed from the fact that on the return from exile Prophet Ezra was able to recite the torah by heart or something like this

I just wanted to point out khoray, that Islam has been here since the beginning. It is the Qur'an which came later. (Which is what you may have meant.)

Very true.. =)

Those who are of the opinion that a Muslim woman can marry a non-Muslim because the prohibition is not mentioned have to reflect upon the whole Quran before coming to this conclusion.


A non-existent prohibition clause does not necessarily mean permission.

Please reflect upon that.

A MUSLIM WOMAN CANNOT MARRY ANYONE BUT A MUSLIM.

If the Holy Quran tells you everything, i.e. what you can do and what you can't do, then the Quran would be infinite, literally infinite, volumes. That is why not all ordinary people can make verdicts. They have to be well versed with the Quran.

The question I want to ask you is what is the purpose of marriage?

[Roshina]

A non-existent prohibition clause does not necessarily mean permission.

Not "necessarily," Yes. But does it necessarily mean forbiddance? Why does absence of permission have to mean denial or forbiddance?

To make babies?

To make babies?

That is one.

In Islam, what is the main purpose of marriage?

Dearest sister, bring all the verses that talk about marriage. Let us analyze them together.

My sister, don't look at the Quran like a novel that you pick up from the bookstore. Without the sunnah of the Prophet (saw) one can never understand the Quran. Therefore, please have fear of Allah when you analyze the Quran and make sure that you are in-line with his (saw) interpretation.

Anyhow, bring all the verses and let us see what they say.

Mata sa pata da dumra gran taposuna kai, may be to stop you from adultery , and wank***

My beloved brother, I don't understand Pashtu.

[eusuphxai]

Apologies, the part in pashto was irrelavant, i said its a hard question but i will guess that the purpose of marriage is to stop adultery and wank***

P.s. I am no one brother other than my natural siblings

As for as I know a Muslim cannot marry a non-believer but can marry people of the book. But it's really preferred to marry a Muslim or convert someone into Islam before marrying him/her.
