It's a normal practice, Be warned it has been proven, mixing with the same bloodline has a higher rate of deformality.

Those who are attracted to their cousins, should get out more, waxas waa nasiib daro.

Actually studies have been shown that marrying your first cousin is no different than marrying someone from the same small village. That chances of heredity diseases are only increased by a mere percentage points.

If someone marries their cousin, it is their choice and there is nothing wrong with it. It is common in many parts of the world, and it is a tradition of our Noble Prophet.

Allah wouldn't permit us to marry our cousins if it was something bad

Nothing is wrong with it if you never seen or very rarely seen your cousin.

Keyword being 'like'..
Technically they aint your blood sisters since you cant see them without hijab..

Anyway I dont see anything wrong with it.. Each to their own!
Half of my male first cousins are like strangers to me!

It's halal to dye your hair white, doesn't mean I am going to do it. To each his own.

اللي يستحي من بنت عمه, ما تجيبله عيال

Horto Allah made it Xalaal but there are some factors that need to be considered. As Helwa (maybe I should marry her) mentioned, if we don't get along very well, it's not gonna be just me and her but will affect the whole Xaatimi nation and swords will be out of the sheaths. Besides, I always considered her as a sister.

I asked her opinion and her response was a little questionable: She says that she also considers me as a brother but what can we do if our parents desire!!! Hell there are million things we can do if wedon't wanna do it, but it seems my little cousin has the hots for me.

union wrote:barakaboy10, both homosexuality and first cousin marriages are banned in most parts of the United States. Homosexuals pose a public health hazard because of their high HIV/AIDS rates, and first cousin marriages pollute the genetic pool by producing deformed/mentally deficient offspring. The constitutionality of laws forbidding homosexuality are being questioned, but first cousin marriages will remain banned because everyone agrees that they pose a greater risk to soceity than any other type of union. Before you post another ramblings tirade about the virtues of cousin marriages, I suggest you look up the genetic problems associated with them.

do you have any concrete prove? if you do please show it to me. i would love to challenge it. but if your prove is "hearsay" then know children of first-causin marriages are more intelligent than you.

my uncle is married to his first cousin and his children are 100% more intelligent than you. one graduated from university at the age of 21.

can you tell why they are not deformed?

the diin is about cigli or how many people think something is bad. i strongly believe in my religion and i would never prohibit something the diin of allah made halal for me because someone said something. in fact, many doctors disagree with your conclusion. every child has the chance of becoming deformed.

What's that suppose to prove.. Uni usually lasts for 3 years..
Heck I graduated from Uni @ the age of 20... Big deal..
Graduating from Uni doesn't prove ones intelligence!

Just sayin'
