Would you marry?

Someone in your family? Like your cousin? Or can you even think about it to marry someone in your family? I did marry in family and it is aloud in the Islam but i just want to know you brother and sister point of vieuw about this.

Salaam.

Re: Would you marry?

There's no prohibition in Islam about marrying a cousin, so it's perfectly legitimate. Even in the Western countries, the phenomenon of not marrying a cousin (and the myth propagated about having handicapped children if you do) is pretty recent.

Re: Would you marry?

it doesnt matter if sumone is getting married in family. and ya my cousin is getting married wid her cousin!!

Re: Would you marry?

i cant even think about marrying a first cousin..2nd cousin is better..

Re: Would you marry?

Theres no problem. 1st cous, 2nd , 3rd ..no problem for me.

Re: Would you marry?

Personally, no I wouldn't.

However, I don't have a problem with others who choose to.

Re: Would you marry?

I don't like 1 big family, I want to know other families and their issues hehehe. I don't want to marry any of my cousins but I would consider it. I don't mind.

Re: Would you marry?

i have no issue in doing so as it is allowed in islam.

Re: Would you marry?

i couldnt marry my 1st cousin. its like marrying your brother.

2nd cousin...i can kinda almost deal with...but personally i would prefer out of the family.

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I would have no problem doing it.

Re: Would you marry?

I don't have a problem with people that choose to marry their cousins. For example my cousin is marrying her cousin and I have nothing against it. However, I can't marry a cousin..first..second..etc. Growing up over here I guess has made me look at it as taboo. Also, I look at them as my cousins etc. I can't even imagine being in an intimate/serious relationship with my guy cousins. They're like brothers. But I don't have a problem with people that choose to do it.
