Can A Muslim Woman Marry To A Non-Muslim Man?

Can a Muslim woman marry to a non-Muslim man?f

It is emphasized in the Holy Qur’an clearly that a Muslim woman may not marry to a politheist or impious men as follows: “...And do not marry polytheistic men [to your women] until they believe. And a believing slave is better than a polytheist, even though he might please you” (Baqarah, 2/221).

When it comes to Muslim women’s marriage with the men who are members of the people of the book, with reference to the verse 10 of the surah Mumtahanah which was revealed about the women who migrated to Medina from Mecca, Islamic scholars express that a Muslim woman may not marry to non-Muslim men (See Jassas, Ahkam al-Qur’an, V, 328-331; Qurtubi, al-Cami’, XX, 419).

There has been no dissensus among Islamic scholars until today on the fact that it is prohibited for Muslim women to marry to non-Muslim men , on the contrary, there has been ijma (consensus) on this subject.
