  • Answer:

    1. In order to get personal with someone...you need to be friends with them...now...in a protective society as ours in Saudi..it's a bit hard to get to know females that are not directly related to you..mostly in a co-ed work environment...say a big company, a hospital, international school, some non-traditional not-very-safe ways of picking up girls would be the mall, a resturant...u name it... 2. In general, the Saudi society is one of the most complicated societies in the whole world...since the Kingdom is quite huge..you are faced up with so many cultures under one big country..Saudies would range from the type that wouldn't feel safe around guys, others whom confident enough: to accept a coffee offer or turn you down politely. It's more of a family matter...so whatever her parents, family think it's ok...and this is why we keep clashing with the religious police, cuz what's considered ok by your guardians is a taboo in their eyes! 3. regarding the wedding, in general the guy provide mahar, which is the money paid to the bride and again you get different price ranges according to what each family/region most familiar with. The groom is required to provide a flat, apartment, some sort of a guest house or a villa depending on what's the arrangements are. Nowadays, many families would help if the guy is still at college or if he can't provide sufficient accommodation right away. 4. Yes, they do ...unfortunately due to the hectic governmential policies regarding "marrying a non-saudi" many females refrained from going there...some weird regulations ...i think you must get a consent form from the ministry of internal affairs or something like that... 5. The husband is not obligated to be a sugar daddy in other words...if he can't afford it..they could come up with plan B...it's not about money after all...one point to mention is our prophet "sallah allah 3aleeh o salam" did mention that..it's advisable to provide a similar economical status to the one that your wife used to live under her father's roof. 6. Nowadays, it's happening everyday, women are studying overseas..almost 80% of Saudi women are working and thus they get a chance in meeting various people. 7. I think it's not quite common...but I know a few myself.

It's rare for Saudi women to marry non-Saudis. It's a lot easier for some other Arab women to marry foreigners. I know a Palestinian woman married to an American man, and I also know a Saudi woman married to an American man. so, it does happen, but not too much. Families generally want their women to marry within the same culture. Dowry doesn't matter as much as if you can afford to take care of her. And, if you marry someone from another country, then you better be able to afford vacations to take your wife home to see her family.

Alhamdulilah

first off. there are government laws (not anything to do with Islam, jsut country laws) that prevent Saudi female citizens from marrying men that are not Saudi citizen.. so if you can get past that hurdle then sure there are Saudi woman marrying foreign muslim men.. I know a few.. One of my neighbors married an american muslim soldier that was here during the gulf war.. She was saudi, he american.. I have a relative that married an Egyptian man... and one very very rare instance a distant cousin married an Indian man.. It can happen.. but rare.

If she is for you then she is for you mate. May god help you :)

Well if u can afford that big a dowry then you shouldn't even have a problem. Its just the family you have to worry about. Why you wanna marry an Arab anyway? You sound really desperate.

As long as both submit to God I wouldn't see a problem. Of course this is the challenge with relationship to all religion. There should be no fighting because of difference of belief. Everyone is free to believe as they chose. Its when one attempts to force their own on someone else. Woman are abused enough already in the places you mention if they made it known they were with a non muslim in the muslim world you being muslim should know the answer. In America however be different. People are free to choose, regardless of prejudice. In the beginning there was only one.
