Ahl-e-Kitab se Nikah - Marriage to People of the Book

Dr. Arshad Maqbool discusses the permissibility of marriage to People of the Book (Ahl-e-Kitab) even though they associate partners with God. He clarifies that while Muslims who commit *shirk* remain Muslim but sinful, the category of People of the Book is distinct by divine decree. He highlights that despite the Quran refuting their beliefs, marriage to their women is permissible, based on God's command, not personal preference. This lecture explores the nuances of faith, sin, and divine law in the context of interfaith marriage.
