Question

i want to ask that my friend love a girl.who is hindu.now she accept islam. My friend want to marry her. Is they can perform jamat. As man becom imam and lady become muktadi. plz reply as soon as posible

Answer

In the name of Allāh, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh

If the girl accepts islām and marries your friend then they as husband and wife may perform salāh in jamā῾t. In that instance, the wife must stand behind the husband and not in line with him. However, it is better for a woman to perform salāh by herself.

And Allāh Ta῾āla Knows Best
Wassalāmu ῾alaykum
