Question

A non-Muslim accepts Islam, but her husband refuses. What is the state of their marriage?

Answer

If a non-Muslim woman accepts Islam, then it is necessary to present Islam to the husband. If he refuses to accept Islam, her marriage automatically terminates. She has to be in Iddat. After the Iddat of three haidhs she will be free to marry a Muslim.
