I ask because I was under the impression that a Muslima must be married to a muslim.. Surah Al-Baqara : Ayat 221 BISM ILLAH AL RAHMAN AL RAHEEM (And marry not idolaters until they accept faith and no doubt, a Muslim bondman is better than an idolater is though she may please you. And give not in marriage to idolaters until they accept faith, and no doubt, a Muslim bondman is better than an idolater, though he may please you. They call towards Hell and Allah call towards Heaven and forgiveness by His Command and explain His Signs for the people so that they may accept admonition. ) I do not read that her husband is a muslim....so that makes him mushrik?? I didn't know wives could just get up and take shahada if they are married to a man of another faith....Isn't this a serious matter? Don't get me wrong. I am estatic about her story. may Allah help her on the straight path......I just don't understand the marriage..... wa salaam
