Article 20 of Jaafari Personal Status Law

English translation

Islam is not a requirement in the person pronouncing the contractual formula as an agent. A non-Muslim may therefore undertake this under the agency granted to him by a Muslim with a Muslim, by offer and acceptance.
Arabic original
لا يعتبر الإسلام في مجرى صيغة العقد وكالة ، فيجوز لغير المسلم أن يتولى ذلك بوكالته المسلم على مسلم، إيجاباً وقبولاً .
