Simply because it's against Shariah. A muslim man is permitted to marry a non Muslim woman but it's haram for Muslim woman to marry a non Muslim man.

Jman06:
That is gender discrimination at its worst!

Jman06:
Why is this so, especially in the north
Can a Muslim northerner on this forum give a logical answer to the above question?

There have been instances where Christian guys fell in love with a Muslim ladies, but the lady's father vehemently opposed the marriage, why is it so??

A friend of mine is currently in a similar situation and I would like to get informed answers here. And again, how do Muslims see atheists?? Do they still discriminate against them in terms of marriage

Your opinions are welcome

falcon01:
let Me give you a logical explanation.

Women In Abrahamic Religions are considered Properties, They are one step above a slave. If A man marries a woman, he has control over everything that deals with her life. Islamically, if a Muslim Man marries a Christian woman, he owns her and she will do anything he says her children are under him they must practice Islam since the head of the house is A Muslim. But if A Muslim Woman marries a Christian Man, He owns her and her children . Its more of Like getting more members to your side than loosing members Simple. A Muslim woman can Marry a slave, but a Muslim slave she owns but Immediately she marries him, she has become his property and she Automatically answer to him and all she owned becomes his.

So what you are trying to say is that the Muslims consider it a loss to marry off their daughters to a Christian man And yet Christian fathers don't have problems giving their daughters to Muslim men?? In that case in think Christian dads should as well stop marrying off their daughters to Muslim men.

How about atheists How does Islam consider them in terms of marriage Especially if the atheist husband won't stop the woman from practising islam??

falcon01:

Yes Muslims consider it a loss.
Muslims are not allowed to marry off their women to any other religion other than Islam.

Muslim men can also Only Marry from the people of the book i.e From the Abrahamic Religions (Jews, Christians, Muslims e.t.c), but they cannot marry a woman who is outside i.e Greek, mythology, Norse Mythology, Pagans, Atheist, because their belief is absolutely different while the Abrahamic Religions all look similar because they come from the same region.

why do Christian father's allow their daughters marry a Muslim? is it a form of inferiority complex.

or are they not practicing Christianity anymore?

Jman06:
That's too bad sha. I wish Nigerian Muslims could become more liberal like their Christian counterparts.

So what if the man converts to Islam and after the marriage decides to quit but did not stop the lady from continuing in the religion

falcon01:

There are bunch of people out there who are trying their best to Stop this barbaric act in Islam they are Trying to Reform Islam so that it will suit Modern Living so far a lot of progress is been made, social media, Tv stations, and other means of communication.


In this case the Man has committed Apostasy which is one of the biggest crime in Islam and he shall be punished according to Islamic Jurisdictions. He Shall be beheaded.

And Hausa and Fulani Muslim girls are very beautiful. About Northern Muslim view on atheists, the goofs consider anyone that is not a muslim to be a Christian.

hopefulLandlord:

It goes both ways bro. Christian fathers have problems with their daughters marrying Muslim men too

Honestly, very beautiful!
They seriously need to start being a bit liberal with religion.

Jman06:
But they don't take it to the extreme if the daughter insists on marrying the guy unlike the Muslim fathers that would go as far as even killing the lady.

adelee777:


From my experience Hausa and Fulani girls prefer Southern guys as they are more romantic and liberal. They are only afraid of what will happen to them if they are discovered to be dating Southern christian guys. I had a Hausa/Fulani lover that told me this. The girl wanted me to impregnate her as she was too much in love that time. She was stunningly beautiful. This still seems to be an understatement in describing her.

CAPSLOCKED:


A LOT OF CHRISTIAN WOMEN ARE MARRIED TO RICH MUSLIM MEN THOUGH. WITH MONEY THERE'S A LOT ONE CAN DO AND UNDO.

hopefulLandlord:


I know Christians that would go to extreme. Jehovah's Witnesses is a good example. I feel while Muslims have more of those compared to Christians its wrong to generalise the way you did
