There is nothing worse than marrying your own first cousin

I don't think religious extremism is a byproduct of inbreeding, that's just religion. Hell Somalis don't have a culture of marrying first cousins, the only group that's close I can think of is reer xamar folks.
First stop badmouthing my people you cow. Second ethnic Somalis don’t practice that and STILL have low IQs! How can you badmouths Pakistanis when they developed nucleuar weapons!

Imagine hooking up with your first cousin who resembles your ugly ass uncle or aunt, then having babies with severe genetic disorders.

Why do so many Muslim countries carry on this disgusting incestral practice. This should be absolutely abolished like child marriage and fgm.

I love cousin marriages. Keep it in the family. My MJ Wabeeneya have a PHD on cousin marriage

Now if we're going to go onto the topic of IQ's you should know that living conditions and upbringing have a huge effect, secondly I wasn't badmouthing your people they're genuinely the only group in Somalia who do it. It's a bit weird but as long as it doesn't pose dangers I don't give a shit.

I don't know how to tell you this bit I'd rather be from Singapore than a country with nukes like Pakistan. I'd rather have less inbreeding, acid attacks and people without a myriad of health issues than have a nuke I wave in front of my neighbours every 2 months.

It's disgusting and a selfish act
Cousins are not meant to be married
Third and second cousins should also include on the list let alone first cousins

This medival disgusting trait were exposed to illiterate nomads believing that cousin marriages bonds the families relationship and bring closer ties
However they're not aware of the dysfunction that'll occur in their households
This practice is no different from incestry and should be outlawed immediately

This will result in failures
Your offsprings are likely to suffer from mental retardation you will regret that decision
No wonder 1/3 of Somalis are either autistic or have mental disorders

I don't care if my cousin looks like a model only sick twisted individuals with dirty minds are fond of incestry

Inbred is no different from incestry

You can't say there's nothing worse when this is something Allah made Halal.

I've seen cousin marriages that turned out fine and the children were fine. The problem comes when there is a trend in your family generation marrying cousins. That's where the genetic mutations really come from.

That’s not what the science is saying booboo. Read!

There are many first cousin marriages, I know of a few myself, that turned out fine. One of them has six kids. May Allah bless them.

Scientifically it is a case of 'chance' that hidden traits in both individuals might show in their offspring. It is not definite that a child would be 'abnormal'. That is as far as science goes.

We Muslims on the other hand use 'Qadr' than 'chance'.

Cousin marriages as one offs aren’t actually genetically damning. It’s all about consistency in genetics.

The more it happens generationally, the less diversity in your gene pool, and the worse it gets.

I think tribal marriages are worse, bc it’s covert. The tribal ecosystem encourages consistent marriages to people who’re closely related to you on various levels. Many marry on the sub-sub-sub clan level, and it’s normative. Over time, you’re essentially doing the same thing to the gene pool. Even it’s not exactly your cousin you’re marrying, it might as well be.

I would still think marrying your cousin, especially in a tribal framework is worse, unless there is outside variation from at least one side.

My paternal grandparent on my mom’s side was an identical twin. His brother thought it would be cool if their kids married each other, but thankfully he was smart to tell him no, and that they were practically the same person.

We already loosely marry our own relatives. I’m glad Somalis don’t consistently marry cousins generationally, bc that would be a genetic nightmare.

I think 2nd and 3rd cousins even for some time is ok, its 1st cousins marrying for like 10-15 generations. Even if you look at lineages, you wont find consistent 1st cousins but rather a 3rd cousin,6th cousin,1st cousin etr

I heard there's nothing wrong with cousin marriage as long as your family lineage wasn't doing it constantly. If you know your parents and their grandparents and their great grand parents were not cousins and they are all clean, then you could marry your first cousin without any child problems inshallah.

Thats true sxb. Most of our parents and grandparents are not 1st cousins but rather like 3rd or 4th cousins which is normal
