The colour does not affect the validity of marriage Fatwa No: 91735
- Fatwa Date:1-4-2006
Is it permissible for a black man to marry a white woman?
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
There is no harm for a black man to marry a white woman or vice-versa provided the conditions and pillars of marriage are met, as the colour is not among the qualification and suitability for marriage.
Allaah Knows best.
