I guess it it should be no surprise for the Americanized and Westernized women to claim marriage with people of the book, after all why not. Muslim men can marry Christian and Jewish women why cant the Muslim women marry Christian or Jewish men?
Yes you guessed it, I am referring to the Muslim wife Huma Abedin who carrying the first child of Mr. Anthony Weiner (they were married last July)
No this has nothing to do with his extramarital sexual activities which is now the business of Huma and her future child. I am quoting for us all to see the guidance of Muslims which should come from that "kalam-Allah"
"Do not marry unbelieving (Idolator) women until they believe.................Nor marry (your girls) to unbelievers until they believe........" (Sura Baqara, Aya 221)
Here there is clear wording that the Mulim men as well as women cannot marry Mushriks-nonblievers or idolators.
Next, from Sura AlMaeda Aya #6
"This day are all things good and pure (tayyibaat) made lawful unto you. The food of the people of the book is lawful unto you and yours is lawful unto them (lawful unto you in marriage) are (not only) chaste women who are believers but chaste women among the people of the book, revealed before time, when ye give them their due dowers and desire chastity, not lewdness, nor secret intrigues.........."
I have highlited the important aspects from the wording in the holy book
Here there is allowance being given to the Muslim men to marry women from the people of the book (Considered only the Christians and Jews) even if they do not be come Muslim
It appears that Qur'an has made no mention that Muslim women can also marry Christian or Jewish men and therefore the understanding is that Muslim women can not be allowed to marry Christian or Jewish men unless after they accept Islam.
Question is that Mrs. Anthony Weiner, that is Huma Abedin, is mentioned as a "Muslim wife", how did that happen?
Is she a Muslim still or has adopted Christianity? If she has done so I have no further comments she must have done the right thing according to her own understanding and I have no business telling her, you cant do that. She is free from Islamic law.
But if she still claims to be Muslim, I must question that. This is not an option you can play with as a Muslim. If you do not pray Namaz or do not recite Qur'an or do not pay Zakat or do not fast in the month of Ramadan, it is understandable, may be you have a reason but getting into marriage with a Christian/Jewish man is a "prohibited" thing ( not just alcohol or pigmeat but a lifelong relationship). Can a Muslim woman take such liberties , saying that Qur'an has not placed an outright prohibition for a Muslim woman to marry a Christian/Jewish man? May be it can be considered. I dont know
I feel sure the marriage must have taken place in the Church but did any "Muslim Chaplin" officiated the wedding ceremony also? I wonder
