The answer

Whoever solemnizes their marriage contract in a church has committed a wrong, because churches often contain objectionable elements, and it is not permissible for a Muslim to attend them. Nevertheless, if the marriage contract fulfills its legal conditions and pillars, then the contract is valid, even if it took place in a church. However, if it was done according to the church's method, then it is not valid. A Muslim must be proud of their religion and adhere to its rulings.
