Muslim Woman Marrying a non-Muslim Man

Q: Is a Muslim woman allowed to marry a man of another religion without him changing his religion or does he have to change his religion before nikah?

A: If a Muslim female wishes to marry a non-Muslim, it is imperative that he first convert to Islam and only then will the marriage be permissible and valid. It is not permitted in Islam for her to marry a kaafier. If she does so, she will be committing zinaa.
