Answer 1
Islam doesn't call for any one to convert to Islam just to be able to marry a Muslim woman. He should be convinced in Islam teachings, Qur'an instructions and rules, and prophet Muhammad (PBUH) as prophet of Islam to whom god revealed the Quran. It is not licit for one to convert to Islam just to marry a Muslim woman.
Answer 2
Because it is the obligation of the husband to teach the wife about Islam, and if he is not a Muslim he can't very well do that.
Answer 3
Answer is incorrect. It is not the obligation of a man to teach a woman. That is not at all one of the reasons.
A non-Muslim man, firstly, may not respect the woman's practice of Islam, so he will hinder it. If Ramadan comes, as one example, the woman must fast. If her husband insists upon sexual relations, she has to then break the fast.
Also: children, we believe, will usually follow the religion of their father. men are dominant, usually. So children of a Muslim woman who is married to a non-Muslim man will probably not be raised as Muslims.
Answer 4
The reason for this is to keep Islam continuing into the future. According to Islam, in addition to being a belief system, Islam passes (almost like genetics) from father to child. If the father is non-Muslim, the child will be non-Muslim, and this would be calamitous for Muslims because Muslim women would be giving birth to non-Muslim children.
Answer 5The reason is that: In Islam practice, the husband prime responsibility is to cover the family expenses even if his wife works and even if she is earning more money than the husband. In addition, Muslims have faith in the holy books (including Torah and Bible), and in both religions of Judaism and Christianity, and all prophets (including Abraham, Moses, and Jesus) while Jews and Christians do not have faith in Islam, in Quran, and in prophet Mohamed.So, it is logic if husband is Muslim to accept for his Christian or Jewish wife to practice her ritual worships, social activities, and clothing according to her Christian or Jewish religion. However, if the husband is Christian or Jewish he may not accept his Muslim wife to practice her ritual worships, social activities, and clothing according to her Islam religion.
That is why a Muslim man can marry a Christian or Jewish girl/woman while a Muslim girl can not marry a Christian or Jewish man.
Some others have the view point that any person of any faith can marry anyone they want and that love conquers all, even religion. However, this is true only if you are not committed to a religion with God or not believing in God at all. If you are committed with God through any religion, what so ever, you have to fulfill this commitment. This is in analogy to one committed with an employer through a work contract (despite the difference between commitment in contract with God, the Creator, and commitment in contract with an employer, creature). Does falling in love with someone entitle you not to go for work or not to fulfill your work commitment? The same answer applies to your commitment with God when you fall in love and thinking of marriage. On the other hand, of course you have full right and full choice to select either to fulfill religion commitment or to abandon the religion you committed to and throw it behind. However, choice is responsibility. You should be aware that your choice defines the consequences that you get in front of God on the Resurrection Day. Either one goes to God Paradise or one be Pushed in Hell fire.

It might be most advisable for the two of you to first explore how mutually compatible your committment to a spiritual path is in general, which might make your decision easier.
In Islam, religion is considered to be inherited, not chosen per se, and religion is inherited from the father. As a result, if a Non-Muslim man and a Muslim woman have children, those children would not be Muslims. As a result, Muslim women usually request that the Non-Muslim man convert to Islam prior to marriage so that all of the children will be Muslims. Conversely, a Muslim man can marry Christian and Jewish women since the Islam will pass regardless of the Non-Muslim mother.

Yes if you're a Muslim yourself you may do so by your mutual will.

However, Muslim women will often object to marrying a man who will not convert to Islam since the children of the marriage will be Non-Muslims.

Which verse in the Qur'an says a non-Muslim woman does not need to convert to Islam to marry a Muslim man?
The relevant citation in the Qur'an in Surat Ma'ida, below. It is worth noting that a Non-Muslim woman DOES need to convert to Islam to marry a Muslim if she is not a Jew or Christian (i.e. those who were given the Scripture before you). So a Hindu or Buddhist woman does need to convert to Islam. It is also worth noting that the reverse is not true, i.e. a Jewish or Christian man cannot marry a Muslim woman. Q 5:5: (Sahih International): And [lawful in marriage are] chaste women from among the believers and chaste women from among those who were given the Scripture before you, when you have given them their due compensation, desiring chastity, not unlawful sexual intercourse or taking [secret] lovers.
