The answer

There is no objection to a Muslim man marrying a woman from the People of the Book, provided he can be just. He must invite his non-Muslim wife to Islam and encourage her to embrace it, lest her disbelief influence their children. If he divorces her, she has no right to custody of the children due to her disbelief.
