    Putting legality aside for a moment, have you considered the difficulty you're going to have raising your child(ren)? You'll be teaching them your religion, she'll be teaching them hers and neither of it will agree with the other. How can either of you stay true to your faith while allowing your partner to teach your child(ren) something that you don't believe?

    From what I know from Shariah wise, if a muslim woman is available, or if the man is not strong enough to guarantee his children's religion, or this non muslim woman is not with a decent morals, then he shouldn't because the prophet said:

    تنكح المرأة لأربع، لمالها، ولحسبها، ولجمالها، ولدينها، فاظفر بذات الدين تربت يداك. متفق عليه
