Totally!!!! A Muslim man can marry who ever they want... Its just the woman who have to marry a Muslim man. There have been cases were a Muslim woman married a Non-Muslim man... Although I'm not too sure how they did that... And that the man has to say some words in Arabic too...

Yes a Muslim man may marry preferably a Muslim woman, or a Christan or Jewish woman. A Muslim woman can only marry a Muslim man. The Jewish or Christan woman doesn't have to revert to Islam. But the children are born Muslim and will be raised Muslim.

Yes, it is allowed for a Muslim man to marry a non-Muslim woman as long as she is Jewish or Christian. He cannot marry an athiest, or someone who does not believe in the One True God. She must also consent to have the children raised as Muslims.
Peace be upon you.

Firstly, you are incorrect in your understanding that Jews and Christians are believers and can go to heaven. You may have based this on Ayah 2:62 or 5:69. However you need to look at the Qur'an as an integral whole. In the tafsir of Ayah 2:62, Ibn Kathir states: `Ali bin Abi Talhah narrated from Ibn `Abbas, about, { إِنَّ الَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ وَالَّذِينَ هَادُواْ وَالنَّصَـرَى وَالصَّـبِئِينَ مَنْ ءَامَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْيَوْمِ الاٌّخِرِ } (Verily, those who believe and those who are Jews and Christians, and Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Day) that Allah revealed the following Ayah afterwards, { وَمَن يَبْتَغِ غَيْرَ الإِسْلَـمِ دِينًا فَلَن يُقْبَلَ مِنْهُ وَهُوَ فِى الاٌّخِرَةِ مِنَ الْخَـسِرِينَ } (And whoever seeks religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers) (3:85). This statement by Ibn `Abbas indicates that Allah does not accept any deed or work from anyone, unless it conforms to the Law of Muhammad that is, after Allah sent Muhammad . Before that, every person who followed the guidance of his own Prophet was on the correct path, following the correct guidance and was saved. [1] So it is necessary, after Allah sent the Last Prophet (PBUH), to believe in him and follow him. This has been mentioned many times, so we can't just isolate one verse (2:62) and claim that Christians and Jews will go to heaven. That's why in scholarly translations you see: Sahih International Indeed, those who believed and those who were Jews or Christians or Sabeans [before Prophet Muhammad] - those [among them] who believed in Allah and the Last Day and did righteousness - will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve. Pickthall Lo! Those who believe (in that which is revealed unto thee, Muhammad), and those who are Jews, and Christians, and Sabaeans - whoever believeth in Allah and the Last Day and doeth right - surely their reward is with their Lord, and there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve. Yusuf Ali Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve. As for the issue of marriage, Ayah 221 forbids marriage between Muslim men and Mushrik women, and between Muslim women and Mushrik men. If you take the verse to refer to all Kuffar, as some scholars have, then Ayah 5:5 gives an exception for Muslim men marrying Jewish or Christian women. If the verse is only about polytheists, then Ayah 5:5 still only makes marriage lawful with Jewish or Christian women, not men. Then of course there's the fact that the wife is more likely to be influenced by the husband than the other way around. Anyway, the scholars have always said that marriage between Muslim women and non-Muslim men is not allowed [2][3][4][5].

Yes, if the women are Christian or Jewish. I was not Muslim when my husband and I married. I have since converted, but only because I wanted to. I was never expected to convert though doing to has made us very happy.

Quran tells a muslim to marry a muslim only.
If a muslim wants to marry a non muslim, he or she has to convert to muslim first before they can be united according to muslim rites.
The fact....a muslim will change your religion to muslim but he will not quit Islam....i.e. muslim religion.

Yup :
[Koran 5:5]
Today, all good food is made lawful for you. The food of the people of the scripture is lawful for you, and your food is lawful for them. Also, you may marry the chaste women among the believers, as well as the chaste women among the followers of previous scripture, provided you pay them their due dowries. You shall maintain chastity, not committing adultery, nor taking secret lovers. Anyone who rejects faith, all his work will be in vain, and in the Hereafter he will be with the losers.
