According to religion, a Muslim man can marry a Christian or a bewish girl. If he can get her to convert, it is considered better, but it is NOT A REQUIREMENT. So if anyone says that you have to convert, it is their opinion.

As for the guy converting, that is a big no no in Islam. Even if the guy is will to convert, it will impact his relationship with his family and friends.

The kids will have to be raised as Muslims though.

Perhaps one of the reasons why it is advised you should marry a Muslim is the children. Which religion should the children be following? Wouldn't they be confused if one parent is a Muslim and the other a non-Muslim and then you get idols and other things in the house.

The important thing is that it is allowed. I don't see why many people continue to ignore that or raise issues on top of that.

And as for idols in the house, Christians and Jews don't worship idols so there is no reason to bring that up.

There are certain sub conditions to marrying a Christian or a Jewish woman and one of them accounts for the childs religion. If the OP is serious about marrying a non-muslim, he should research this subject and get answers from someone qualified and unbiased.

I believe it is best that the lady converts to Islam first before marrying a Muslim man.

One not only seeks the blessings of one's parents and family, but above all, the blessings of Allah Himself.

She will have time to learn about the religion, the practices and understand that marriage is not only about love, but also about helping each other to earn a place in the Heavens.

Insya Allah.
