Yes you can marry him. Thats easy.. The hard thing is will you guys stay married for a long time? most dont, to be honest. Some do but most dont.. Its a fact of life here.. Cheers!

Its really frustating to see the answers, as far as I understand that she is not asking weather a muslim can marry a christian girl because they have already decided to marry and it means that they know the matter

her question is can this marriage can be done here in Qatar? if so what are the formalities?

one person answered " change the boy friend"

come on when some body seeks help try to help them if not at least not to tease them you st op it.

According to the TEACHINGS OF ISLAM, a muslim man can marry to CHRISTIAN & JEWS lady since they believ in GOD (ALLAH). This can be verified from any TRUE MUSLIM SCHOLAR.

But it is preferable that wife & husband should have same religion / sect to avoid complications in children belief.

in our religion (islam) a muslim man can marry a cristian or even a jew....our prophit Muhamed (PBUH) has married a cristian and a jew...but after marriage eventually they converted into islam...

however it is not a must that u convert to islam to marry a muslim man...

u need to get married in court..even if both of u r muslim...

i got married in dubai (both of us are muslims) and we got married in court...

u will need a prove from yr country that u r not married...

after u get married u need to atest your marriage certificate in your embassy to be legaly accepted in your country...

if i were u...i would avoid all this hastle and go get married in yr or his country...

btw...a medical test is required by the court to get married in here...whatever yr nationalty or religion..

if ur philipino it will be sooo difficult to get married in here..!

yes ,you can marry here in Qatar and no need for you to change religion. I have a christian female friend and a male muslim who got married here at the shariah court.

TO ALL QL members, if you are not SURE about the answer to any given question PLEASE DO NOT reply to it.

The answer to your question is YES, a Christian or Jews woman can marry a Muslim MAN WITHOUT converting to Islam.

AS for the procedure go to the Shariaa court (in Arabic called al Mahkama al sharaia) and ask for the required documents.

I wonder why you are posting this question here while your BF supposed to be a MUSLIM and knows already the answer!!

In Islam u cant marry a non muslim but yes if ur ready to change ur religion after marriage or b4 den u will be rewarded by the almighty and blessed by him.If the guy who is marrying u can make u a muslim then he is rewarded the most more than the existing muslims,but if ur not ready to change then its better to break ur relation and marry in ur own religion.thnx and all the best,may Allah show u the rite path and bless us all!!!

as far as i know there are two rules for a muslim man to get marry a non muslim women

1. if she is a christian, after the marriage we can convert her to our religion.

2. if she is not a christian, before the marriage we have to convert.

Please confirm with the scholers.

You can marry each other but you'll have to do it in the court. Documents also depend on your nationality.

No need for any of you to convert, a Muslim man can marry a non-Muslim woman; this is according to general rules but I am not sure about Qatar
