Hello NLanders, please help advise me on how to counsel this brother of mine who lost his wife about 2 years ago during child birth.

Now the man wants to re marry and is considering his late wife's sister. (Whether out of true desire, wish that the sister can take better care of her late sisters baby or another reason) it's worthy to note also that the lady in question is also advancing in age and likely to settle with any available man.

Please is it morally, culturally or religiously permitted to do so, he has been asking me
It's permitted culturally but it's no longer in vogue

It is totally wrong for him to marry his wifes sister, it is an abomination. The man deserves a sound slapp to bring him back to reality. He is wicked and has betrayed his wife.
take it easy, we are all one mankind.
Don't increase your blood pressure because of ordinary simple question.
See forget abomination or whatever.
Unless the affair had not been going on behind the late wife's back, if it's a new developed interest, then why not. At least it will still keep the man very much into the same family he must have been already used to. Once again, we are all brothers and sisters

As much as this is may be uncommon, there's no such thing as right or wrong in this instance. Maybe you could ask if it was acceptable. But then you would have to ask his people not nairalanders.

Not right.
Re: Is It Right For A Man To Marry His Sister In Law? by bluefilm: 7:21pm On Feb 24, 2021
YES.

Nothing wrong in it at all.

And if it so happens that he has been _fucking her before when her sister was alive, then what stops him from marrying her and continue with the _fucking when the sister is no more?

Is she the only woman on planet earth?
Re: Is It Right For A Man To Marry His Sister In Law? by Nobody: 7:23pm On Feb 24, 2021
The deceased's sister should be ready to bear some insults & accusations. People could say she probably had a hand in the death of her sister in order to achieve her fantasy.

Yoruba families would hardly support such a marriage,,,, but nothing is new under the sun

she will take better care of her nephews and nieces than a complete stranger.

You need your head acupunctured. Totally wrong? If i didn't read some of the story, i would probably have thought someone's balls got blown off. Calm down. Some would even argue he's done well by not looking elsewhere. I think calling this a betrayal is out of place. How has he betrayed his wife?

he can, provided he has been eyeing the sister in law before the wife's death...
Re: Is It Right For A Man To Marry His Sister In Law? by benji93: 7:29pm On Feb 24, 2021
The only thing that's a red flag is the fact that the woman is advancing in age. Perhaps by that you mean late 30s or something. In which case if he wants more children that wouldn't be a good idea unless he has a strong faith.

Lol.
What about brother in-law and sisters inlaw marrying each other (the brother of the husband and the sister of the wife). Is that one right?

Incest is a sin in almost all cultures and religions. I am not sure the courts supports incestous marriages. As for all the men quoting me, how would you you happy if after your demise, your wife gets entangled with your brother?

Well, it depends.

If he has been sleeping with his wife's sister when his wife was still alive, then I won't advice him to marry her because there will be no spark or excitement during sex again.

But if he has always fantasized about shagging her and never got to, then marrying her is his only legitimate way to bring his fantasies to reality.

Although it is the dream of every ambitious man to shag either his wife's sister, mother or friend, his best bet is to marry a new woman entirely while still retaining his wife's sister to genuinely cater to his kids as her own while still shagging her on the side in the guise of helping her bear her own kids before menopause arrives.

How many of you men quoting me, would be happy if your younger brother should date/marry your wife in the event where you died? How many of you would be happy? Its betrayal, its an incestous relationship and wrong.

Op It Depends On Your Tradition, Some May See It As A Taboo While Others May Not.
But Technically It Is Not Wrong To Marry Her Sister Since They Both Are Diffrent Body Entirely Except For The Fact That They Share Same DNA.
Tho Bear In Mind That If The First Died Due To Difference In Blood Group With The Man Then The Second Also Has A High Chance Of Following Same Path.
Gudluck And Happy Incest To Him. grin
