Well she has to obey her parents none the less, even if they reject him for something invalid such as cultural reasons. Now if they forced her to get married to someone she didn't want to get married to, that's a different matter. When I realized that there are families that reject their children to marry outside of the culture, I talked to my mom about it ahead of time to see her views on the subject, with the hopes of possibly opening her mind to other ethnicities and showing her the flaw in having ethnicity-bias, just in case. Alhemdulilah that I did this earlier and that she was open-minded about it, because I didn't want to have to go through the trouble of over-thinking alone without even talking to my parents about it. However, keep in mind that our parents give us away to people that they believe are best for us and that we are compatible with. I can see why they'd want someone from the same culture, despite the issue of piety.

She should speak to her parents about it in a mature manner with good intentions and make du'a for herself, that Allah leads her to what is best for her, and that He will build a desire in her heart to accept and love what is decreed for her.

If she can help them find a flaw in their way of thinking (having cultural bias rather than focusing on better characteristics), then that is a deed and advancement for her; and if they have better reasons that she has overlooked, than she needs to realize her parents have valid reasons for their choice and she always needs to consult them when it comes to marriage. If her parents don't have any valid reason, then she just should forget about that person and she needs to be patient and continue to try to open their mind in case she falls in the same situation later on.

But yeah, she should speak to her parents about it if she wants this person, otherwise if she's not going to include her parents because she fears rejection, then she needs to just forget about it and move on.

First of all daughters are very precious to parents , no matter what. Daughters are more loving also to parents than their sons, may be they dont show it off. but its true. and is vice versa. there is no need to be in so much hurry. Tell ur freind to peacefully talk to her parents. Tell her to talk with her parents. I mean dont decide on urself , just because they will so no for a particular reason. Marriage is not a joke. And specially in the marriage which does not has parental support, the respect between the spouses is less. Tell her dont panic , we have not seen the world as they have seen, experience counts, and its ok that we know their shortcomings, but that does not mean they are completely wrong. Tell her to peacefully talk with them , inshallah He will make path easy for her. Ameen
 
subhanAllaah since when has a strange man one desires to marry got more priority then the parents.

the man says he wishes to marry, the parents say no...


if you reason and they accept then Alhamdulillaah

if you reason and they deny then fear ALlaah and obey your parents for disobedience of parents IS A MAJOR SIN. take it like a test..



Assalamu Alaikum
 
this is not allowed in islam ,
remember the
'there is no arab better than a non Arab and there is no non-arab better than an Arab.
but they count in faith (~or somin like that~)'

1. Associating partners with Allah (Shirk)

Great Shirk: worshipping beings other than Allah (proof all over Quraan)
Small Shirk: Riya

The Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said,

"Should I not inform you of that which I fear for you even more than the dangers of Dajjal? It is the hidden shirk: A person stands to pray and he beautifies his prayer because he sees the people looking at him".
(Sahih; Sunan ibn Majah)

2. Committing murder: (Furqan; 68)

3. Performing Sorcery (2: 102)

4. Not performing the Prayers(Maryam: 59)

5. Withholding the Zakat (Charity) (3: 180)

6. Breaking the fast of Ramadhan or not fasting in that month with a valid excuse.

Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) said,
"Islam is built upon five pillars: testifying that there is no true god except Allah and that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah, performing the prayers, paying the zakat, making the pilgrimage to the house, and fasting the month of Ramadhan" (Sahih al-Jami # 2837)

7. Not performing the pilgrimage when one has the ability to do so (above hadith)

8. Disobeying one's parents (al-Isra: 23)

9. Cutting off the ties of relationships (Muhammad: 22)

10. Committing adultery or fornication (al-Isra: 30)

the problem is .. that she said shes in love with him.. * which obviously i dont believe in it.. before marrage.. like when u honestly really know him .. actually livin together .. * but shes indenial
 
well whats wrong with marrying someone you love??... why cant her parents understand that... her parents can advise her and help her that she should marry this guy n not him etc.. but they cant just say ''no becos hes not an arab'' i mean come on how mean is that.... at the end of the day shes the one whos gona live with the guy so i think she should try talking 2 her parents again.. if they still dont listen then... why not go againt her parents n marry him because shes already told them so many times n they still probly dnt seem 2 understand.. but anyway thats just my opinion and they not unislamic :)
salaamz :)
 
Culture again eh!

If he's a Muslim, I can't see the problem. I've told my parents I'll marry a Sikh convert who may be black, chinese or white and they won't do anything about it. As in Sikhism they are Sikhs regardless of colour or culture. Though my extended family object, but I have a nice long sharp Kirpan for them! lol
