Question

Is it possible for a person to marry with a person of a different sect (maslak). Is it right to do so or should it be avoided?

Answer

Marriage is better enjoyed when there is understanding, mahabbat and peace. When the maslak is different, how can you have a good level of understanding and how can there be peace in the house.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
