520 |a In Malawi, many Muslim youths choose their life partners from other religions such as Christianity who at the beginning of their life embrace Islam. However, the situation changes after divorce and in case of death of the husband. The widow or the divorced woman denounces Islam and goes back to her old faith or religion. In many cases, this practice affects the children's future of religion when they are still young, and it jeopardizes the Da'wah process in the country. The primary purpose of this study is to find out the impact of such interfaith marriages on Da'wah process in Malawi. The findings obtained from this study shall have far-reaching implications on the lives of all Muslims in the country, especially the Imams of the Masjid. This research employed the qualitative method. The qualitative approach utilized library research and semi-structured interview methods for data collection. The library research focused on laws practiced in Malawi, books, case studies and journal articles related to interfaith marriages. The population of this study consisted of Muslim communities of Nkhotakota District.
