Re: Getting married within family
Not a big fan of it. Actually, totally against it. Though there have been cousin marriages in my family. I have seen that doesn't really matter where the bride comes from, eventually, there will be problems. So why take the risk of recycling genes and producing offsprings that necessitate that those offrspings will have to be married to their cousins as well...starting a vicious cycle. So, rather, marry outside the family. Please.
Besides, while cousin marriages are acceptable in Islam, they are not favored.
besides, how could you marry someone that you called Bhai all your life. grosss!
