Answer

Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, ‘One person getting guidance
through you is better than red camels (being expensive and a luxury of that
time).’

In view of the above, if the Christian female gets Hidaayat through you, it
is highly commendable. However, marriage has major implications. It is not
just being a means of guidance. It is two people staying together and
sharing almost everything of theirs. Such a close relationship require
compatibility and understanding. While there are many men who married
Christian women have successfully introduced them to Islam and live a
comfortable life, there are also many who experience major marital life
problems due to non-compatibility. In the beginning, their intentions may
have been noble but with continuous disputes, they begin resenting one
another.

Many such woman revert to Christianity and the sin of that is worse than not
initially accepting Islam. It is, therefore, advisable that you exercise
caution and don’t hasten in your decision. Mashura (consultation) with your
seniors is important. You should also make Istikhaara and continuously make
Du’aa. Insha Allah, Allah will guide you towards whatever is best for you.

and Allah Ta’ala Knows Best
