Cousin Marriage
Please take a look at the picture and articulate your thoughts. Thoughts should be backed up by Ayahs from the Quran and/or Hadiths of the Prophet PBUH. Read the following: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10924896/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin_marriage_law_in_the_United_States (For those who are reading challenged, just the abstract works). Cousin Marriage is outlawed in several states in the U.S. and there is research showing cousin marriage is correlated to kids with birth defects. Is there a risk of birth defects and genetic disorders in children who come from spouses related by blood? if so, why it is not haram them in Islam to marry your first cousin? Do you support the law in some US states that bans first cousin marriage? Was the prophet PBUH or companions married to their cousins? Is it encouraged or discouraged in Islam to marry to relatives? Any historical stories from Europe and their kings of getting married ONLY from same family and what were the consequences? All thoughts are welcome!
