Answer 1

Are you asking why Muslim men marry outside of the faith and Muslim women do not?

Simple answer, Muslim men according to the Quran are allowed to marry believing women of the Muslim, Jewish or Christian faith. A Muslim woman on the other hand should marry only a Muslim man.

Answer 2

Islam allows a Jewish or Christian woman to marry a Muslim man with the provision that the children are raised Muslim, which is facilitated by two factors in the eyes of the Law: (1) The head of the household is Muslim and (2) Her Abrahamic background qualifies her to grow into the fullness and maturity of the final Divine dispensation. There is no such allowance for a non-Muslim man who would purport to marry a Muslim woman even if he promised to raise their children in the Muslim faith; the Law cannot rely on such a promise on the part of the head of the household short of his accepting Islam.

Answer 3

Just a small point a muslim pays Mahr/wedding gift to anyone he marries.

Polygamy for men shows shows how excellent the woman is when she can be fulfilled by one man. And how empty the man is because he needs more the one woman.

According to sacred law a Muslim man can marry a women who is a Christian or Jew and or sabeans (believers in the Prophet Yahya - there are some of these in Iraq).

A Muslim woman can only marry a Muslim man. Why? This seems like its wrong doesn't it? Please let me explain. A Muslim man has to respect the religion of his non-Muslim wife, he believes in her Prophet, Moses, Jesus and Yahya (upon them all peace).

He respects her book and he has to by sacred law to pay for her daily needs: food, housing etc. A non-Muslim man on other hand doesn't believe in her Prophet or religion. So he could cause her to loss in her religious action.

For example he might prevent her fasting because he doesn't like it or he might stop her praying. He may also refuse to pay for any of her daily needs, he not obliged to do this.So the reason here is, that the non-Muslim man cannot fulfill her rights either worldly or religiously. If he did then he would be Muslim. This is in order to protect the woman from harm.

Does this make sense, please ask me to clarify if you do not understand

Answer 4

That's an assumption. Anyways, i believe it's because more people are open-minded this days.Not because they're planning to become muslim or anything, if thats the case, then those are the ones that convert on their own. I too come from a muslim and non-muslim parent. But my father, who's a 7th day adventist, does not believe in islam, although he's considered a "convert".

Answer 5

This tale about cruel muslim fathers have been told for a very long time. With all possible media weapons.but the great non muslim women marry again and again and again and again muslim men. and tell me, is it only muslim men who left his child or kidnap his child in ur lands? tell me how many children grew up not knowing their fathers, whose non muslim mothers have not even touched a muslim man. be honest. Islam is the youngest and mega modern religion, if u can think.and i know thinking is for some ppl a high achievement sport but you can do it

Answer 6

Because Muslim men are allowed to marry non-Muslim women.However, Muslim women are forbidden to marry non-Muslim men. There is a big pull to convert if a women marries a Muslim man or in the rare case, vise versa.

Answer 7

Believing, practicing Muslim men make the best possible husbands. Because they fear Allah, they don't lie, drink, gamble, do drugs, or chase women, and they work hard to support their families.

When I mentioned this during a lecture to non-Muslim women in the Northeastern US, and then asked for questions, there was a stunned silence, and then one of the audience raised her hand, and asked, "Where do I get one?"

Answer 8

The NON muslim women have not bothered to READ the Qur'an. The former Muslim women escaping Islamic marriages by marrying men outside of Islam have probably experienced enough Islam for more than twenty lifetimes.

Answer 9

muslim men are allowed to marry non-muslim women in islam so there is no problem, and the children are still muslim

Answer 10

I am Catholic dating a muslim. I hope to marry her. And there is no expectation for one of us to convert to the others religion. I will always be Catholic and she will always be Muslim. I guess why this is happening is because we Love each other.
