Moroccon women marrying white men

hey all. let me know if some1 can help me answering this question. recently i have been doing a lot of research about the morocon women and i am surprised to explore that recently a lot of moroccon women engage themselves into relationships with "white men" of course non moroccons or even non moslims. then they must convert to islam in order to get married with them as they must fulfill the laws of morocco authorities. my confusion drives me crazy as i though moroco women are moslims and mabe a good examples of great moslim ladies then why the morocon culture allows such liberty to invite things like that? first, getting into relationshiops with non muslim men. and then getting them convert their religion so they can marry them.
i think to some good extent it is the french influence on the people of moroco. the culture of moroco is supose to be following the islamic shariah laws rather than the french influenced puppet government.
PLEASE HLEP and reply to my post or message me. thanks

And what is funny is that if you are already a muslim from, say England, the Moroccan authorities don't recognise any certificate of conversion to islam from England and demand you re-take Shahada again in Morocco.

When I married in Morocco, I had to first demonstrate my proof of 'muslimness' to the relevent authorities (being non-moroccan). I had to recite the Quran in arabic, which I did. the authorities seemed pretty strict those many years ago. Seems that nowadays, they become somewhat lax, and accept any 'conversion' for the sake of marriage. Maybe these days money talks more loudly.

But back then, the only girls you saw going with white non-muslim men were prostitutes. Remember, in Morocco, a moroccan man wants to marry a virgin, and a girl who is not a virgin will tend to go with non-muslim men, as a non-muslim ain't fussed about whether a girl is virgin or not.

BTW, there are some 'white men' who are muslims too (though we are rare!).

wasalam

One would have thought you would have understood darija by now Mr Creosta. Didn't you spent 3 weeks in a hotel and now know it all?

I withdraw my previous post. I thought I was dealing with a Moroccan.

<<there are some 'white men' who are muslims too (though we are rare>>

as a muslim you are know longer in this ethnic group but belong to and have identity with the nation of muhammad and have allegiances to allah, muhammad, and the believers.

inama al-muminun al-ikhwat surat al-hujurat

islamically white is a creation or biological marker and not an ethnic group as rasool allah(alahi salaam) said "......there is not a black nor a red that enters into my ummat except that he is one of them." musnad ahmad; as explained by ad-dhahabi that all of mankind falls into this physical description of being light skin or dark skin. (my words) however in his statement you see his(alahi salaam) statement of being in his ummat. ethnic wise every muslims is based around abu qasim's(alahai salaam) sunna. our sayyid imaam an-naas rahamat-ul-alameen
so making color into a ethnic marker is an incorrect ethnic division whereas if you were to look at a persons true ethnic division you must examine rasool's statement " whoever imitates a people are one of them" abu dawood ; in this you see the messengers(alahi salam) definition of a person being that what he portrays and education as is stated in his saying(alahi salaam) "every person is born on the fitra but it is his mother and his father who make him a christian, a jew, or magian" bukhari. A convert denies and repudiate his upbringing to adopt the straight religion which consist of many direction for life.
