Sultan Of Brunei’s Daughter Had A Luxurious Wedding. But People Don’t Like This Couple

It was the first royal wedding of 2023. The celebration was simply magnificent and lasted the whole week! The daughter of the Sultan of Brunei, Princess Azemah, married in the most luxurious palace in the world. Everything was glittering in gold and diamonds. But this wedding has also become one of the most controversial in royal life. Why do many common people think that the princess chose the wrong man? And why are social media users outraged by this alliance?

My late maternal grandparents were first cousins. They lived in different countries and their fathers wanted to tie their families together as back then, siblings and cousins who lived in different countries become estranged as travelling overseas were very costly and risky. They met just a few days prior to their wedding and lived a peaceful life with 2 very healthy, very smart girls who are are very kind and loving people and also successful in their careers.

[@dianaednacorda4708]

What is stated here is correct from the viewpoint of biology (genetics). Marriage is discouraged between first cousins due to the probability of increasing occurrence of genetic defects. Probabilities deal with possible occurrences so there is no guarantee that just because it did not surface among children of first cousins, it will not happen in other cases. But the possibility is greatly increased in offspring of first cousin marriages.

[@lananan1903]

it is indeed legal to marry your first cousin (in Islam) although it is not "encouraged" especially if the fathers are siblings. Not encouraged does not mean Islam opposed or prohibited this. as per my opinion, love is something we cannot stop and further more there may be times when there is limited people to marry.. (esp when you found "the right person").. however, we can make duua.. that Allah will protect them from having a problem later on. So.. let Him take care of the rest. As long as we do not do the wrong thing. Wallahualam

[@sms1511]

Many, many people i personally know have married first cousins and had heathy children. The rate of birth defects due to consanguinity is less than 2%. For comparison the rate of down's syndrome for mothers over the age of 38 is also 2%. Lets not fear monger due to Elvis and his family, a man who dated and married his wife before the age of 17!

[@rosemarie3251]

@@sms1511 Thank you for the information. Someone else has pointed out that marrying first cousins is alright as long as the cousins come from opposite sides of the family and not the same side. However, Elvis and Priscilla married when she turned 21. She was cared for by Elvis' parents who saw to it she was educated. This was approved by her own parents.

[@Annpuritykarimi630]

But it's very true unless the family doesn't have genetic diseases otherwise if there is it's possible to have children affected or if their blood is very close it's possible too ,Pakistanis in Europe and U.S.had been warned before as they don't marry outside their small community over there and the results have started manifesting now so it's not very good to marry a close relative like first cousin atleast a second cousin could be better all the same happy marriage fellows wishing you the best.

Consanguineous marriage such as this are common with the very reasons are to keep the wealth within the family and to keep the monarchic-noble blood. Or, perhaps, no one man dares to propose marriage to her due to her status as a princess and being super wealthy. However, biologically speaking, there is a physical and mental health risk for the descendants.
