Can a muslim woman marray a christian man???
-
a muslim man or a woman cannot marry a christian (one who believes Jesus is son of God and in the trinity). the christians referred to in the Koran are those who believed Jesus is son of Mary and a messenger from God.
if i had to choose between a man who is a christian as per the koran (doesn't believe in the trinity) and a hadith follower - surely, it will be more 'islamic' for me to marry a man who is a monotheist than a man who believes God + hadiths.
I agree with most of this reply. Unfortunately many Christians have misunderstood the bible and have taken the word "son" literally. Throughout the bible it uses the word "son" to mean "descendant of", i.e. Jesus being the son of David. Well of course he wasn't literally the son of David, he was a descendant on David. In two of the four gospels it gives the linage of Jesus ending in "...... was the son of Seth, who was the son of Adam, who was the son of God". Therefore, Jesus was the son of God because he was a descendant of Adam, as we all are according to the old testament. I believe, as you do, that Jesus was a prophet and messenger.

By trinity doesn't it mean that trinitian christians are still monotheists because they believe 3 is one? !

Well that certainly applies to most. Even if they believe Jesus was God (which I don't), the belief is actually that he was God in human form (still the one God) and that the holy spirit is God's influence that touches us. So when they say "God the father, God the son and God the holy spirit" they are only talking about three different manifestations of the one God. The biggest difference (in belief) between mainstream Christians and others is the belief that Jesus was God who came to Earth and took human form. Many modern day Christians now reject that idea.

Why keep looking for a law to tell you what your heart knows?
Ask yourself this Who is bumsarama if all he is is a rule follower? You will live and die by that question.
We look to God's laws because he knows what is best. But you are correct, I also am a rule follower, and I will live and die by it. I also pray I die among the righteous who follow the laws of God.
I can understand your view, as I was a christian before, and am married to one, and many protestants seem to hate the idea of rigid laws, as they blame it on "the spirit of religion".
