Maybe its just a general fear of assimilation. There are Muslims out there that don't want their daughters (or sons) marrying outside of their ethnic group, even the if prospective groom is Muslim (and thus there would be no religious objection). If there is a genuine religious difference (Muslim guy-> Jewish/Christian Girl, Jewish girl->Non-Jewish guy), there is always the question of how the children will actually be raised. No one wants to believe mommy is going to hell because she didn't convert to daddy's religion, no one wants to be treated as a 'half-breed,' etc.
