Answer:

 

Marry hindu girl

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

 

Your Question: I am madly in love with a hindu girl and i want to marry her is it ok in islam to do so?

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 221:

221 Do not marry idolatrous women until they believe; a slave woman who believes is better than an idolatrous woman even though she allure you. Nor marry (your girls) to idolaters until they believe: a man slave who believes is better than idolater, even though he allures you. Disbelievers do (but) beckon you to the Fire; but Allah beckons by His Grace to the Garden (of Bliss) and forgiveness, and makes His Signs clear to mankind: that they may celebrate His Praise.

 

A marriage between a believer and a Hindu sister would be absolutely unlawful and prohibited in the Sight of Shariah Law and in the Sight of Allah Subhanah. The one and only way it would be lawful for a believer to marry an idolatrous woman is that the woman, of her own free will, leaves her pagan beliefs and religion and reverts to the Truth of Al-Islam.

 

Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 2 Surah Baqarah verse 216:

216 ……But it is possible that ye dislike a thing which is good for you and that ye love a thing which is bad for you. But Allah knoweth and ye know not.

 

Sahih Al-Bukhari Hadith 7.27 Narrated by Abu Huraira

The Prophet (saws) said, "A woman is married for four things, i.e., her wealth, her family status, her beauty and her religion. So you should marry the religious woman (otherwise) you will be a loser."

 

Respected brother, as much as this idolatrous sister might allure you, as much as you may be ‘madly in love’ with her…..a marriage between a believer and an idolatrous woman would be absolutely unlawful, null, and void in the Sight of Allah Subhanah.

 

If one trusts, obeys, and follows the guidance and commands of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of never ever being misled; but if one believes, obeys and follows any other guidance, other than that of Allah and His Messenger (saws), one can be assured of being led astray.

 

Whatever written of Truth and benefit is only due to Allah’s Assistance and Guidance, and whatever of error is of me alone. Allah Alone Knows Best and He is the Only Source of Strength.

 

Your brother and well wisher in Islam,

 

 

Burhan
