^ are you gonna go through with marrying your cuzen then bro?
 
I wouldnt mind but all my cousins are 40 plus, LOL . The ones around my age are all nephews and nieces.
 
Relatives marrage? :S what type of marrage is that! =s Do you mean to say 'arranged marrage?'
 
I'm not a fan.. but it is ok in Islam.
But it is better to mary outside your family as that increases the Ummah.
It doesn't stay concentrated (in the family) that way...

And by the way .. you can do da3wah then to your new in-laws if they have poor imaan.

so that's my opinion.
 
Well, there's always the advantage of knowing the person's whole life (in most cases) when they're your cousin, so you know them well before marriage, but marrying a stranger doesn't that advantage. But marrying a cousin? I don't think I could ever do that, it's weird, people who are so close to you and you've grown up with them, getting married and having a different relation than the ordinary cousin-cousin chit chats...nuh uh, they're almost like my brothers and sisters (we're all around the same age).
 
:sl:
^ I agree about the advantage of knowing the person all their life and it is true. And parents will be happier and more at ease.

However if the family observe full hijaab, i.e do not mingle with cousins of the opposite gender, then the girl and boy would only know about one another from the parents/ family. And thus still be kinda 'new' to one another.

This being said, i dont see myself marrying my cousins.
 
yes im a fan, it suits some people and its totally fine and nothing to be looked down upon.

Erm, neutral. I'm not against them, the Shar'ah basically allows them, but the scholars said it's better to marry someone who's not a relative, for plenty of reasons.

Here, in Bosnia and near countries, Muslims don't like this type of marriage at all (but they also know very little about Islam, communism etc.), and therefore the relatives marriage here is veeeeery, very rare.
 
im not a fan but its ok n my sisters married to my cousin n shes happy so i guess it is successful.my mums married to her cousin too lolz it happens here alot.
 
lol..

i see it like any other couple,

if both cousins are compatible - go for it


if not - dont

simple :D

lol same here, just what I said above, anyway thank God I found out that forced marriages are haram
 
yes

Alhamdulillah, Allah has given me such relatives, that i cannot control.I shall not marry from them, that i can control. :)
 
rather marry from other families so you meet more ppl!
 
Whatevera rocks ur boat. If u like to keep it within the family, thats ur choice, if u like to cross borders, why not?..It's just not my kinda thing.

Not me, no way. Insha'Allaah I'm marrying someone completely out of the family. And definitely no way to someone from back home, i.e. grown up there.

Nothing wrong with the people, but I simply cannot do that. I don't really care if others do it though, if it works for them it works.
