"Also (forbidden are) women already married, except those whom your right hands possess. Thus has Allah ordained for you. All others are lawful, provided you seek them from your property, desiring chastity, not fornication. So with those among them whom you have enjoyed, give them their required due, but if you agree mutually after the requirement (has been determined), there is no sin on you. Surely, Allah is Ever All-Knowing, All-Wise." - Quran 4:24 (read more)

"Narrated Anas bin Malik: While we were sitting with the Prophet in the mosque, a man came riding on a camel. He made his camel kneel down in the mosque, tied its foreleg and then said: "Who amongst you is Muhammad?" At that time the Prophet was sitting amongst us (his companions) leaning on his arm. We replied, "This white man reclining on his arm." They then addressed him" - Sahih Bukhari 1:3:63 (read more)

"The marriage of a Christian man to a Muslim woman is an invalid marriage. Allah says in the Quran, "And give not [Muslim women] in marriage to idolaters until they believe" (al-Baqara 221). Therefore, it is not allowed for a disbeliever to marry a Muslim woman... If he does marry her, the marriage is invalid. The children are the children of fornication. They are to be given to their mother and ascribed to her alone." - Shaikh ibn Baz
