In many countries today, Christians who want to marry must meet certain legal requirements. Once they do so, they may wed in any legally accepted manner.
فِي بُلْدَانٍ كَثِيرَةٍ ٱلْيَوْمَ ،‏ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَبْلُغَ ٱلْمَسِيحِيُّونَ ٱلَّذِينَ يُرِيدُونَ ٱلزَّوَاجَ بَعْضَ ٱلْمَطَالِبِ ٱلْقَانُونِيَّةِ .‏
