Question:
Aslamu Alaykum,
I need help as soon as possible please, I am a female and I have come across a disbeliever who is a male and he is in love with a Muslim girl. So, because of her he wants to learn Islam from me, but my friend has said it isn’t jaiz for me to help him because he wants to convert into Islam because of the girl, what should I do?
Remember me in your duas.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
You are allowed to help a male non-Muslim learn about Islam by means that will not create a fitnah between you. We can never know for sure that he is learning about Islam just to marry a Muslim girl. Even if it is the case, Allah swt may make him a practicing Muslim better than many of us. Therefore we are not to speculate about his intention but make ourselves available whenever we can to help non-Muslims learn about the final Message from Allah swt to mankind.
