\n\tIn the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tAnswer:<\/u><\/b><\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\t‘Umar Ibn Al-Khattab said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) say: “Actions are based on intention and each person will have but that which he intended. So whoever migrated for some worldly purpose or for the sake of a woman whom he could marry, his migration was for the purpose that he intended.” (Al-Bukhari, Hadith no.1, Darus Salam)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tAs it is mentioned in the Hadith above; Actions are based on intention. If a person became a Muslim, other than the sake of Allah (s.a.w). His faith is according to his intention. But as a Muslim, we don’t judge him and say his Islam is not accepted. As long as he said kalimah, then it is between him and Allah (s.a.w). We consider this person as a Muslim. As long as he doesn’t do anything which shows he exited the religion of Islam.<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/p>\n

\n\tSimilar to this incident also take place at the time of Prophet (S.a.w). Anas (R.a.) narrated that: “Umm Sulaim became Muslim before Abu Talhah, and he proposed to her but she said: 'I have become Muslim; if you become Muslim I will marry you.' So he became Muslim.” (Sunan Nasai Hadith no. 3342,<\/a> Darus Salam)<\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n
