Is it possible to marry him if he is working in Saudi Arabia


Is it possible to marry him if he is working in Saudi Arabia?
If the man is Egyptain and is working in Saudi Arabia does anyone know if it would be possible to marry him there. Everything I read leads me to believe that there is no way for me to marry him while he is there. I am from the US and non-mulsim.

It's probably better for you to get married in Egypt or in your home country. The only way for you to come to Saudi Arabia as a single woman would be to get an Umrah or Hajj visa, and you probably need a mahram (male family member) with you. And, you'd still have to leave the country while he applies for the residence visa for you through his company, and you will have to submit an application through the embassy in your country. _______________________________ Since you're not a Muslim and cannot enter Saudi Arabia, you should get married in Egypt or the US. He should be able to take a vacation from his job for a couple weeks. During that time, you can get married. Then, he will probably have to notify his employer that he wants to bring his wife (because there are requirements for foreign workers to be able to sponsor their family to live in Saudi Arabia). After that, you should be able to do the application through the Saudi Embassy in Washington DC.

i don't really get what is the problem here...you are a a non saudi and you live outside saudi arabia, you want to marry an egyptian man who currently resides and works in saudi arabia....so you can, he can take a couple of days off and travel to where you are and get married then register the marriage certificate at the embassy and take you back to saudi with him....or you could go to saudi and get married there...legal papers and stuff aren't that complicated in this matter and he should ask and arrange for these things before you come and just finish things up after you do... maybe if you add more details i could help you better...

Of course you can! You can either marry him in egypt or in your home country or even Bahrain. If you lived in Saudi Arabia, you could even marry him here. There is absolutely no connection between the fact that he works in KSA and not being able to get married to you. Even if he was Saudi these days, with an 'extra fee' he can marry easily to anyone he chooses.

if you can enter saudi arabia, then yeah. but the fact that you are not Muslims makes this a little bit harder to enter saudi. if he goes on vacation to egypt or usa, that would be much better. good luck.

There is no problem marrying him. the problem is YOU getting to SaudiArabia as a single women.. Its a catch 22.. So your best bet is to both go to Bahrain, or Egypt to get married then he do the procedure to bring you to Saudi.. Maybe you can live with his family in Egypt will he's working on the paperwork.. It can take some time (yes a long time) so you could be waiting in Egypt and pick up some arabic in the mean while, which will help you .. Goodluck!
