question to muslim

Well M not muslim but from my musim frnds I got 2 know abt this that in Islam its allowed 2 marry cousins but its not compulsory.
Ps: y r u crying by the way asking this qstn ??

You don't have to if you don't want to. is some one forcing you? Then I would recommend you to watch the video kochurshak posted a couple of days ago and decide how you want to tackle the issue😆😆

Yeah its allowed in our religion:) but its nit compulsory
When I was growing up all of my cuz were so innocent :))

to me, it's disgusting as we have grown up together...also, I don't have a single male cousin 😆 so hypothetically speaking...had Fawad Khan or Hrithik Roshan been my cousin, I would praise Allah and marry either one of them 😉

It is allowed irrespective whether they're first cousins or the second cousins.This is not a compulsion in Islam but an option. So not a do you have to marry your cousin thing actually.Surah Nisa, chapter 4 verses 22-24 stated there is no sin on you if you have not gone in them. It just an option.

What the extra silver linings that it is allowed?


Scientifically, no biggies problem in marrying them. Genetics and health-risks thing occurred mostly if you married to your own sis/ bro by same paternal.

The risk of giving birth to babies with genetic defects as a result of marriages between first cousins is no greater than that run by women over 40 who become pregnant . Full article from The Telegraph based on research for that taboo.

Nope yaar!! it is allowed, but not compulsory..Just an option..to avoid sexual intercose or whatever as sometimes, you are not raised together with 1st cousin..Might meet later like stranger. Just option! if you have many confusion about it, could PM me too!😉😆

ewww. W*F. they marry their own cousins? I had no idea. that's the same blood though. wouldn't the babies be defective? GROSS!

It is not compulsory, but it is an option.

First cousin marriage is not something exclusive to Muslims. Many South Indian communities also have a tradition of first cousin marriage. I have a few relatives myself who married first cousins. The practice was common in many Christian communities as well. That is why you get jokes about rednecks and southerners marrying their cousin.

Back in the day people were unaware of the biological effects of in-breeding. A first cousin was seen as someone who is not a blood relative. The marriage was seen as a way to keep the family close knit and the wealth and property within the family circle. Also way back in the day life was confined to small villages. So clans and communities married within themselves.

As we learned more about negative effects of in-breeding and became a wider more open global community, first cousin marriage ceased to exist becoming even taboo or illegal in many parts.
