Daughter insisting on marrying a non-Muslim
Question
My daughter wants to marry a white non-Muslim guy. We have tried a lot to inform her about this sin but she is not listening to anyone and is very stubborn on her decision. The current situation is that she is being very nice with us, but once we try to talk her about him, she gets extremely upset and changes her attitude. I would greatly appreciate your help.
Answer
Commence with the following program at home:
1. Ta`leem of Fazaa'il-e-A`maal, Fazaa'il-e-Sadaqaat and Bahishti Zewar.
2. Recitation of a portion of the Qur'aan Shareef and some zikr
3. Collective du`aa with the family at the end of each session.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

Where scholars differ, it’s safer to take the more cautious view.
