Muslim Marriage under law can be performed only where both parties are Muslims. Same as Hindu Marriage or Christian Marriage can under law performed if both parties are Hindu or Christian. So if both parties are of different religion the only Act applicable is Special Marriage Act unless one of the party convert.
