Moral standards are shaped by many factors, including society, religion, philosophy, and culture. What one culture sees as morally right may be considered wrong in another. This shows how complex it is to define morality universally.

From a religious viewpoint, particularly in many faiths, God is seen as the ultimate authority on morality. His standards are believed to be higher than cultural differences.

God isn’t opposed to culture itself. Culture is an important part of human expression. However, God is against specific cultural practices that conflict with His moral teachings. It's important to distinguish between cultural elements that align with divine standards and those that don’t, so people can live in a way that honors both their culture and God's principle.

How do you feel marrying your father brother daughter or a stepchild, doesn’t it look disgusting to you if can be sincere.

Front page pls, the ronu group that is threatening Igbos to leave Lagos

Petalss:
Then you need to research more.

But can’t a god book do better even if another culture is practicing it. Is that morally right in your own thinking without being biased.

Lucifyre:
I don't know if this is plain ignorance or hypocrisy. Who did Abraham marry? Who did Abraham's brother marry? who did Jacob marry? Who did Esau marry? who did Isaac marry? Who did Adam's other children marry? Who did Cain marry,? Who did Noah's grand children marry? Who did Moses' father marry? Who did Judah marry? Was the world not populated and repopulated through incest according to your bible? So what are you saying.

My research on Christian Bible shows that the act was prohibited by Moses on their way to promise land. It is forbidden for them to marry their uncle daughter or stepdaughter.
Leviticus 20:17-21 and Deuteronomy 27:20-23 clearly prohibited those practices for the Jews.

honesttalk21:
It will do you good to look at other translations of the same verse of the Quran.
There is mistake made in this translation.

If I may ask you what then happens when you consumate the marriage with the mother of your stepdaughter?

I have in my earlier reply pointed out the practices of marrying cousins which has occurred frequently in the British monarchy who are not Muslims.

I have also pointed to the medical exaggeration of the risks

The permission is not to marry stepdaughter mother, is to marry a stepdaughter herself which regard you earlier as his father when she was growing up.

Qasim6:
Do you kno the risk is 3% in unrelated couples and around 4-6% in Cousins marriage?

Are we not going to marry again since the risk is also present in unrelated couples?

Yeah, it is permitted. But if you are not cool with it then stay away. You are only looking at it from the perspective of your own culture. Some cultures are cool with it.

Then why will my ancestors know better than the Koran, because in my cultural tradition, that is one of the highest abominable incest one can commit. As far as the risk is greater than 1% that is much. I am yet to see a culture that permit someone to marry adopted son wife if they divorce.

honesttalk21:
@Qasim why bother answering these questions of questionable intent? They obviously are not from an asking position but mere hateful jest.

Cousin marriages have been a notable aspect of the British monarchy, particularly as a means of consolidating power and maintaining royal bloodlines. This practice has historical roots that can be traced back several generations, with various members of the royal family marrying their cousins for political alliances and to preserve the purity of their lineage.

While there are some increased risks associated with consanguinity (the practice of marrying within one’s blood relatives), these risks are often overstated and can be considered minimal in many contexts.

In Islam, marrying one's stepdaughter, whether before or after the consummation of marriage with her mother, is not permissible and is considered forbidden (haram) in Islamic law. The relationship between a stepfather and stepdaughter is considered to be one of mahram (non-marriageable kin), and it is prohibited for them to marry each other under any circumstances.

The verse 4:23 says prohibited.

Prohibited to you [for marriage] are your mothers, your daughters, your sisters, your father's sisters, your mother's sisters, your brother's daughters, your sister's daughters, your [milk] mothers who nursed you, your sisters through nursing, your wives' mothers, and your stepdaughters under your guardianship [born] of your wives unto whom you have gone in.

That is not what verse 4:23 said, attached is what the verse said, you are adding your own. The question is not about whether British or elsewhere culture is doing it. The contention is why will a Koran book that was claimed to come from god allow such despicable practices of marring your uncle daughter that have medical disorder implications and also a stepdaughter or divorced adopted son wife as practiced by prophet Mohammed.

Qasim6:
And for the cousins part, yeah it is permissible.
It is not something peculiar to Islam, some cultures do permit that.

But if your cultures does not permit it, then stay away from it.

Why will Koran not know that the act is not good even scientifically it breeds genetic disorder diseases in children. Now why will my ancestors know better than the Koran that claim that the book came from god through Mohammed.

Qasim6:
So if you did not marry the mother of a lady before, how is the lady your stepdaughter?

What the verse is talking about is if you have consummated a marriage with a woman then you can't marry her daughter again.

If you adopt a child, it is a taboo to marry her later when she grow up.

Qasim6:
But step daughters are mentioned in verse

The verse said that you can marry your stepdaughter if you did not marry the mother before. Read it again slowly.

Kingsempires:
if you are looking for the best religion the true is that Christianity is the best religion why!! Because Christianity teaching is mostly on Love, The love God have for us that he sent his only begotten son to dies for our sin, love your enemies even pray for them ,Matthew 5:38-48 New International Version (NIV)

' But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. So where it get sad is that out of 100% people that are christian I will say that only 5% practice true Christianity.

If it comes to marriage in Christianity there is no dirty practice like that

As for Islam that is practicing that is left for them

Ok still researching and comparing

Qasim6:
Ok no problem.

Kindly quote Qur'an 4:23 here and let's see.

Attached is the quote, that is why prophet Mohammed married his Uncle daughter and after that he also married his adopted son wife Zaynab.

Kingsempires:
so were you a Muslim before or you were trying to convert to Muslim so that chapter and verse makes you to condenm Islam?

I am researching on Islam to know if it is better than other religions and I found those disgusting permissions for marriage. I begin to wonder if Koran actually came from god or just a copied work from previous religious books by prophet Mohammed. It is a serious abomination to have sexual relations or marriage with your father brother daughters because they are your blood sisters or your stepdaughter ( that is your child ) or stepson wife (that is your son wife). In my tradition you can’t marry your relatives to talk more of your Uncle daughters, that is height of perversion.

Aren’t these practices disgusting

Qasim6:
Are you sure you know what you are talking about?

Seems your own problem is who is marrying who

That who is marrying who is abominable in our land, why will a religion that it prophet claim to hear from god permit such dirty marriage. My question is why should Alla permit such marriages

Lucifyre:
Yeah but they can be christains where exactly the same thing happens🙄

It is not permitted in Christian Bible to marry your Uncle daughter which is marrying your father brother daughter and also marrying your stepdaughter is prohibited, that goes along with our cultural traditions. In our tradition if you do that you will be ostracised from community because you have desecrated our land in committing abomination.

This is a serious reason my people cannot be Muslims because this is an act of committing abomination in my tradition and are regarded as incest.

Can Muslim explain why Allah permit them in Koran Sura an Nissa 4 vs 23 to marry their stepdaughter and Uncle daughters, that is to marry a daughter of your father brother or mother brother or an adopted girl child which is your daughter or marry your adopted son wife if they divorce. Prophet Mohammed married his brother daughter Zainab and his adopted son wife.

Igbo Amaka

Deadlytruth:
Ojukwu reiterated it many times that the chief architect and leader of the coup in question was Ifeajuna and never Nzeogwu. Logically also, how could Nzeogwu who was thousands of kilometers away in Kaduna have been the architect and leader of a coup plot hatched and nurtured entirely in Lagos?

You guys like lying alot, you have more information than the northerners and Yorubas that are eyewitness of the coup and narrated how Nzeogwu coordinated the coup.

The one that is most shocking today is that Delta Anioma people from where Nzeogwu came from are not Igbos but they call his coup Igbo coup.

Tjra:
If you really need Biafra, there is an appropriate channel for it.

Your representatives will call for at the house. Simple

You will be surprised at the level of support they will garner.

People of your wicked mindset is the reason Nigeria is in shambles. South East deserve project from Federal government, if you can’t give it to them, let them have their own Country.You can’t keep on treating some people in wicked manner and expect to have peace.South West through Sunday Igboho is also agitating for Yoruba Nation, why is SW still getting projects

DeOTR:
So which tribe do you expect to have the highest percentage if not the Yorubas? 73% of the test was conducted in Lagos and Lagos is yorubaland. Let the test be conducted regionally and let's see how many percentage the Yorubas will take outside Southwest.

If they do it by regions, Yoruba will still score higher because of high polygamous rate in South West, one man cannot satisfy many women and Islamic laws is not strong in SW because Yorubas are more civilised.

Hausa don’t cheat because of their religion there is no much freedom in Islam and their is high tendency of killing the woman according to sharia, make it free for them, the result maybe higher. For Yorubas, they still practice much polygamy thereby having high tendency of infidelity. For Igbos, some of their ladies will fall for money even in marriage.

deji17:
Dem no fit bury her for Igbo land?
RIP

She is married to Yoruba and have children

Let the woman be arrested and likewise let Abike Dabiri use the same energy for Adeyinka, MC Oluomo and Oba of Lagos that have make similar genocide threats against the Igbos.

After 55 years, you are still crying. Your tribe had been ruling Nigeria both as military and civilian for 55 years and yet nothing to show for it. Writing rubbish.

Why do Nigeria like to keep development only in Lagos, porthacourt and Abuja. Other countries develop everywhere in their country.
