What should a Muslim man, who holds Swedish citizenship, do when he finds difficulty in marrying Muslim women while it is easy to marry Christian women?
A Muslim should be keen to marry a righteous woman who will help him in matters of his religion, based on the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "Marry the religious woman, and may your hands be soiled with dust."
If this is difficult, there is no harm in marrying a chaste Christian woman, although some scholars dislike it.
