Ahmed Karima attacks Amna Naseer: “We don’t want to mess with anyone … the country is not deficient.”

Dr. Ahmed Karima, professor of comparative jurisprudence at the Faculty of Islamic and Arab Studies at Al-Azhar University in Cairo, attacked Amna Naseer, professor of faith and philosophy at Al-Azhar University, after her statement of that “there is no legal text that prohibits the marriage of a Muslim woman with someone from the People of the Book (Christian or Jewish)”.

Karima told Al-Masry Al-Youm on Wednesday that the marriage of a Muslim woman to a non-Muslim is one of the strictest prohibitions. The Islamic religion prohibits a Muslim woman from marrying a non-Muslim.

Karima added: “To those who are dedicated to jurisprudential legal issues, I say that it is essential to take into account the national security of the country and respect scientific specialization. ».

He continued: “To whom this saying is attributed, his academic scientific specialization (philosophy) has nothing to do with Islamic jurisprudence and its sciences.”

Amna Naseer, professor of doctrine and philosophy at Al-Azhar University, sparked widespread controversy, after stating that “there is no legal text that prohibits the marriage of a Muslim woman with a person from the People of the Book (Christian or Jewish ) “.

Naseer explained, during an interview on the Al-Hadath channel today, saying: “Non-Muslims, Christians and Jews, and they are the people of the book, and the Quran in their name like that. I mean, Mahmash are idolatrous worshipers, that is They deny Almighty God, but they have another religion that differs from us. “

He added: “In such a case, if he (the husband) applies what a Muslim applies when he marries a Christian or a Jew, he does not force her to change her religion, does not prevent her from going to his mosque, does not deprive her of his Quran and does not prevent him from performing his prayers. “

Naseer went on to answer the question, “In this case, do the children follow whom?”, Saying, “The children follow the father … Therefore, the opinion of the jurists was that they reject the marriage of a Muslim woman. with a non-Muslim from Kitab, so that Muslim girls do not abandon and go Christian and Jewish, and here the number of Muslims will decrease. ” ».
