The Priority of Marrying Relatives

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
In the second question from this questioner, he asks: Does marriage between relatives have negative effects on the children in the future?

Answer:
Relatives are more deserving of marriage than others. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) married from among his relatives; in fact, most of his wives were from among his relatives (peace and blessings be upon him). Marrying a relative is more deserving if he is good and a suitable match. As for the statement of some jurists that a distant relative is more deserving, that is an error.
The point is: if a good relative is available, he is more deserving than others because he has a family tie. So, if a good relative is available, marrying him is good and important. Likewise, marrying from among one's relatives is more deserving than others if it is feasible: such as his cousin, his maternal cousin, or his aunt's daughter, provided that it is feasible and she is a suitable, good match. Yes.

The presenter: May Allah reward you with good.
