Combining the marriage of cousins' daughters or maternal cousins' daughters, and its analogy to the prohibition of marrying a woman and her aunt
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, regarding combining the marriage of cousins' daughters or maternal cousins' daughters, is there not a cause for severing family ties? Should it be analogized to the prohibition of marrying a woman and her aunt based on this common cause, so that we say it is forbidden?
Answer:
No, my brother. The default is that it is not prohibited except for what the Lawgiver has prohibited. The Lawgiver has prohibited only these specific types, and whatever has not been prohibited remains in its default state.
