Islam has made marriage to Jewish or Christian women lawful for Muslim men, for they are Ahl al-Kitab, that is, People of the Book, or people whose tradition is based upon a divinely revealed Scripture. Although they have distorted and altered it, they do possess a religion of divine origin, and hence Islam has made some exceptions in dealing with them.

A Muslim man can legally marry a Muslim, Christian or Jewish woman. I recently married my Muslim husband in Morocco and for the marriage to be allowed, I needed a statement of my religion. I was also questioned about my religion briefly on 2 different occasions by officials reviewing our pre-marriage documents.

He can marry a muslim, jewish or a christian women. He dosen't have to marry a muslim women just as long as his children follow his religion (Islam).

A Muslim can marry a Jew or a christian(Not those who believe on god begetting a son and/or trinity)
Marraige with a Kafir(one who rejects) or mushrik(Pagan..heathen non believer)is void and carries no legal status
