2.221

وَ لَا تَنْكِحُوا الْمُشْرِكٰتِ حَتّٰى یُؤْمِنَّؕ-وَ لَاَمَةٌ مُّؤْمِنَةٌ خَیْرٌ مِّنْ مُّشْرِكَةٍ وَّ لَوْ اَعْجَبَتْكُمْۚ-وَ لَا تُنْكِحُوا الْمُشْرِكِیْنَ حَتّٰى یُؤْمِنُوْاؕ-وَ لَعَبْدٌ مُّؤْمِنٌ خَیْرٌ مِّنْ مُّشْرِكٍ وَّ لَوْ اَعْجَبَكُمْؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ یَدْعُوْنَ اِلَى النَّارِ ۚۖ-وَ اللّٰهُ یَدْعُوْۤا اِلَى الْجَنَّةِ وَ الْمَغْفِرَةِ بِاِذْنِهٖۚ-وَ یُبَیِّنُ اٰیٰتِهٖ لِلنَّاسِ لَعَلَّهُمْ یَتَذَكَّرُوْنَ۠ (221)

Kanz ul Iman Kanz ul Irfan

English translation of Kanz-ul-Imaan

And do not marry polytheist women until they become Muslims. And undoubtedly, a believing slave woman is better than a polytheist woman, although you may find her attractive. And do not give (Muslim women) in marriage to polytheist men until they believe, and undoubtedly, a Muslim slave is better than a polytheist man, although you may find him attractive. They invite towards Hell, and Allah invites towards Paradise and forgiveness by His command, and He explains His verses to people, that perhaps they accept advice.

Commentary

Unfortunately, despite this clear Qurʾanic injunction, the trend of Muslim men marrying polytheist women and Muslim women marrying disbelievers is on the rise. The blame falls on the culprits and their parents who willingly cast their children into this fire. The blame also lies with self-proclaimed intellectuals, minions of liberalism, and irreligious writers who support this practice by darkening pages with their words.
