Fathwa, - Marry someone of differing aqida or understanding?



►● ╠▓╣♥ ♥╠▓╣




Question:
Is it permissible to marry a Salafi? What about marrying someone that does not categorize themselves as belonging to a specific madhab, or belongs to a different madhab than one's own? What if one's spouse falls into one of these categories?
Answer:
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
I pray that this finds you well, and in the best of health and spirits. May Allah grant you all good and success in this life and the next.
It is valid to marry anyone who is a Muslim. The sunna is to marry someone of "deen"--sound religious understanding and outlook, solid faith (iman), practice, and piety (taqwa)--and good character (husn al-khuluq).
With that, one should consider compatibility, and whether marrying this person will further one's worldly and religious goals. As Ustadha Hedaya Hartford cautions that, "It's important to marry someone who has the same view and application of the deen as yourself. Having that similiar foundation helps through out marriage because is creates or supports basic understanding between the spouses."
As in all major matters in life, one should consult those of understanding and experience, and turn to Allah in seeking guidance through the istikhara prayer.

The fact that Islamic moral values do not yet rule the world must stir all Muslims
