Find out if he knows how to pilot a plane, but cannot take off or land.
You have to tell her the truth. If she doesn’t listen, too bad.
Offer her a place to hide when it goes wrong.
I seriously doubt you can do anything to convince her, some women just seem to court disaster.
ya might point out what the Bible says about being unequally yoked. Ya might point out how muslims treat women.
I would say something if it were a friend of mine. The trick is saying it in a loving manner and not getting sucked in to a major argument.
.Either way you will probably lose her as a friend.
We've heard that story before. The burka comes next.
Ask her if she’s prepared to deal with him killing their daughter some years down the road, because she refuses to wear a burqa to some event or other?
1 Thessalonians 5:17
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
17 pray without ceasing;
Send her a copy of the Sally Field movie: Not Without My Daughter
—2) He’s more masculine than most of the other guys in her graduate program.—
Yeah, same reason guys go for the “trashy” girls. Usually they don’t marry them, though. Either way, this will affect the rest of her life, and there is little you can do about it.
It is best to learn from the mistakes of others, but in matters of love, often the only way to learn is through your own mistakes.
I agree with San Jacinto. You do have to tell her the truth. You can’t make her believe it, but when something bad happens to her (and it will), you will regret not having said something.
Suggest to her that she does not CONVERT, it is not an option.
Have her watch, “Not Without My Daughter.”
I think you owe her the truth. But it probably won’t work. If she marries the guy your relationship with her is over anyway.
Send her this link along with a hug

Patriot Act = GITMO
She is headed for a disaster of epic proportions. I can’t stress enough what a bad decision she is making. It would be one thing if he were just a secular Middle Eastern fella (still not a great choice). But a practicing Muslim - she’s crazy.
Teach her about Islam, FAST. Explain honor killings and beheaded wives, female genital mutilation, the whole nine.
Christians should be equally yoked in marriage, but they should definitely NOT marry Muslims.
You have to be willing to lose her friendship in order to save her. Tell her the 100% unvarnished truth. Treat her like a sick alcoholic.
Still, your friend may just be one of those females that seemingly has an unconscious death wish.
