Islamic marriage advice and family advice

Tag Archive for ‘Wali’s permission for marriage’

Would I (a Muslim) need the approval of my Christian parents to marry to a Muslim?

I know that if I wanted to marry the parents must give permission but I don’t think that applies to Muslim children with Christian parents. And if it does then I fear my parents will not accept because they would want me to marry a Christian. But I am Muslim before I am a part of any culture so I feel I should abide by ONLY Islamic rules. I obviously do not know the rules to a situation like mine.
