Marrying a shia
Question
I belong to a sunni family. Can I get married with a boy who belongs to Sayed (Ahle tashii) family?
Answer
Generally the shiahs don't believe in the Qur'aan as it was. Many a times they revile the Sahaabah. To believe that the Qur'aan has been changed or a word has been left out is disbelief and nikaah with a disbeliever is impermissible.
And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
