Marrying a Wahabi girl
Question
I love a girl and she is a Wahabi girl and I am Ahl e Sunnat. Is it permissible in Islam for me to marry her?
Answer
If her beliefs and actions are contrary to the beliefs and actions of the Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah, then you should not marry her, unless she is prepared to make taubah from her past and conform to the Ahlus Sunnah wal-Jamaa'ah in her beliefs and actions.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
