In order to do this she would have to go against the teachings of Islam. Whilst it is allowed for a Muslim mand to marry a non Muslim woman (although though she has to be a woman of the book i.e. Christain or Jewish) it is not allowed for a Muslim woman to do so.

I can not imagine that her family would be happy of this situation and would probably disown her.

As has already been said she could not get married in Egypt.

I could not imagine that she could live in Egypt either after the wedding as if it was known that she was Muslim and he was not then the comminity where they were living would be against them.

So she would have to leave her religion, her family and her country.

From the sounds of your post she has only met this man briefly and has fallen in love with an impression rather than a reality. With no common language there can be little deepth to their reltionship as yet.

She has to be prepared to all the above for a man she has only known briefly and superficially no matter how deeply she loves him.

And then where are they going to go, what country does he come from, what is the likelyhood of them granting her a visa.

What do you think an embassy would make of their relationship, would they believe it to be a genuine one.

If I was a betting person I don't think I would be putting money on this one.

But it makes a change from elderly European men marrying Philipino or Thai wives who can't speak English either and is little different from older European women marrying Egyptian men with whom they cannot talk.

It depends on what the woman wants out of life. What are her chances of finding an Egyptian husband (genuine question).

If you check around I think you will find this subject was discussed in detail when it was first posted. It seems ahmed2004 wanted to give another Muslim the benefit of his knowledge in how to avoid the earthly consequences of Islamic law! I wonder how he would feel if someone was giving a female member of his family similar advice?

Well if her family has anything to say about it...depending on the family that she comes from.....TABOO!If he does not convert...in Islam marriage to him will not be allowed!If she converts...depending on the family she comes from...she will be as good as dead to them...or litterally dead.That does not only go for Egyptian Muslim girls ...its for all Muslim girls in general.Sorry if I upset you but thats the way it is.


By family type I mean back ground,roots etc.
