Did you see who the proud Muslim married?

Is a Muslim man allowed to marry a Christian or Jew girl in a Muslim community?

I knew that a Muslim may marry a Christian or Jew if there is no Muslim girl around. I am not sure how right I am...

Of course he can.A Muslim man is allowed to marry a Christian or Jew woman, but a Christian or Jew man is not permitted to marry a Muslim woman.
The Quran in Sura 5:5 says:
. . . Likewise you are permitted to marry chaste believing women [Muslims] or chaste women among the people who were given the Scripture [Jews and Christians] . . . . (Maududi, vol. 1, p. 427)
