Marring a girl who does not pray and neither do her parents

Q 1: I proposed to my cousin in order to remain chaste. The girl, her father, and her mother do not pray, but my cousin is still young and has not reached the age of puberty yet. I intend to teach her to pray after we marry. Is it permissible for me to marry a girl who does not pray and neither do her parents?


A: Try to marry another righteous girl and this will be better for you, and forget about your cousin, as she is likely to follow her parents. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
