I want to know the legal status of the marriage between a Muslim Groom and Hindu Bride in India.What will be the effect of their religion. Whether they can believe on their own religion or they will have to change their religion after or before marriage.What Muslim laws or Hindu Laws says for rituals. What will be the religion of the offspring out of this wedlock.
Whether this will help in harmonization of the relation of the Hindu Muslim family.

Sir, its their wish to believe or follow either of the religion. If god forbid any dispute raised between them the law governing their marriage is Special marriage Act as said by my learned friends and the off springs of the marriage are free to follow either of the religion. Now coming to the point of helping to the harmonization of relation between Hindu and Muslim family intercaste marriages are never accepted by the families of either side. Only time is the healer of the matters.

I do agree with my all friends. Such marriage is solemnized and governed under Special Marriage Act.
So far it relates to religion, in India every one has liberty to choose and perform his religion.
It is the choice and understanding of the couple and their offsprings what religion they choose. Either one or both simultaneously

As stated by my friends, THE marriage is governed by Special Marriage act and each one is free to profess his own religion. Just remember JODHA and AKBAR.
What about divorce, maintenance and inheritance?
Muslim laws or Hindu laws are not applicable. You both, shall be governed by provisions of Special Marriage Act and Indian Succession Act.
