Ask The Imam Question and Answer

536 If someone is willing to convert to Islam for marriage and has a basic knowledge of Islam but doesn't fully know the Religion and beliefs, is it permissible to convert and learn about it afterwards?

A friend of mine did this and didn't practice until 30 years after converting. When she fully believed in all aspects of Islam and is only recently a prating Muslim? Because I have read that you shouldn't convert for marriage but for Islam and Allah (S.W.T)?
When somebody wants to embrace Islam do it immediately, as delay may result in the person never accepting Islam. It is better to be a non practicing Muslim than not being one at all. Hopefully once the person accepts Islam Allah (S.W.T) will guide them.
