What is it with Nigerians and judging people? Hector you don't know me, I disagreed with your opinion fine, then here you are all catching feelings and threatening to report me? That's not very gentlemanly.. I kinda didn't figure you to act like that.
PS: apologies for calling you a perv but still...
Bye

Honey it is a fact. It happens a lot down here. Right from when I was a child I have always known that Muslims marry their cousins especially the hausas. When I was a teenager, the our Hausa neighbour was married to her cousin, even her in katsina where I am presently, our production manager who is a hausa-fulani is married to her first cousin. This is just but a few out of thousands that I know. Infact they marry mostly their siblings. Just three weeks ago, we had the discussion;; from their mouth they said it is permitted in Islam as long as both of you didn't suckel the same breast. The only person they can't marry is their step sibling or someone who suckle the same breast with you.
Thank You for the fine response. Shows you know whatchu talking about. However, I would like to shed more lights on this trend.... Now, in traditional Arabian culture which Fulani's are much in congruence with, it has always been the norm for cousins to marry. Its not like it's an Islamic thing per say , it is that Islam didn't in anyway go against it just like Islam doesn't go against a Yoruba man putting on his native attire in prayers . So, I'll like us to look at this as an Arabic/Fulani/Hausa tradition that Islam permits. Au revoir!
