is permissible in islam for a man to love a non-muslim (mirzae) woman
Question
I want to ask if it is permissible in islam for a man to love a non-muslim (mirzae) woman
I loved a mirzae girl but i had an intention that i would marry her only if she accepts islam. In this case it is permissible to love a non-muslim girl
Answer
The concept of love before marriage has no basis in Islam. It is, in fact, prohibited. Islam does not even permit a lustful glance on a woman and orders us to lower our gaze. A female is prohibited from talking in a sweet and melodious way to a male. All these acts have a potential of adultery and fornication.
Your love to the Mirzaee girl or any girl for that matter is a major sin. You should terminate that relationship and make sincere Tawbah (repent) to Allah.
and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
