because, you have to consider 2 things, first thing is what food will the wife like or the husband will like, since im pakistani, i know many people won't like spicy food, and i probably won't like their food.
second thing is what language you'll mostly speak, mostly likely your gonna speak english, but honestly i only feel comfortable speaking my own language more than english.
another i forgot to mention is, it also matters is the person recently converted to islam, because if the person is not religious and became muslim; that person probably won't be a good muslim, but if the person is religious then yes; that person will definitely be a good muslim.
Interesting....I would look for her characteristics and quality of a muslim rather then where she comes from...tht infront of strangers might be discrimination...I would eat anything my wife makes just like I eat what my mom makes.

I think when you're looking for someone to marry, you're looking for compatibility... And that, obviously, includes food, culture, language etc.

That's a very pathetic and disgusting way to judge one's Imaan. I do strongly believe that when one converts, they convert with full knowledge of what they're getting into. And life for the convert is not as easy as those who are born muslim. If they're capable of pulling through, they must have great Imaan, right?
I understand you look at emaan and characteristics..right ? So no need to answer tht question was directed at mrkhan89,btw The ruler thanks for clarifying what we didnt need to know....
Whoa, a bit closed minded, we all like different things and race is nothing but a cultural and colour difference, in Islam we are all one brotherhood, I know white Brits who love their curry and I know of pakistanis who dont like spicy food. You could always teach your mrs your native tongue and you could cook together, sharing family recipes, problem solved. Its about compromise with different cultures when they marry and mainly it is about your love and dedication for ISLAM. I suggest you dont marry inter-racially if you are worried with food and dialogue.

Well you must consider the whole culture of a person not only food and language.Also I think you must consider the pros and cons to interracial marriage.What if you spread the name of Islam to the other family if it is interracial,did you consider this?Many things have two sides to it.

Actually that is incorrect,I find converts can be great Muslims because they chose to go into Islam without the extra guidance from a parent or guardian.I see that many converts can be better then non-convert Muslims because they had that zeal to enter Islam.inshAllah
We take for granted what Allah blesses us with from the start. We don't see it as something different cuz its already been adjusted to us whether the wrong way or right way. But still u gotta give props to those who still search being born in a muslim family. That just means they get out of their little bubble. Like myself I know a lot of things I've heard around from people is 100 percent culture. I'd not have known it, had i kept following blindly and not really practising either. Just doing it cuz my family does.
*Without Allah, without Islam, life would be meaningless. If I've ever learned patience, it's because of this. Alhamdulillah...*

Wouldn't mind either way i.e. the persons character as a Muslim.
