Answer

In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalaamu `alaykum waRahmatullahi Wabarakatoh

A Muslim may marry a Christian or Jewish woman only if he is strong in his Iman and he will not compromise in his Islamic values.

It is not permissible to marry any other women of another faith.

And Allah knows best
