Q: I fell in love with a girl in our village. She is best noted for her good manners and religiosity. She is related to me through her mother who is my father's cousin. Her father is the paternal uncle of my mother.
Is it permissible
for me to marry her? I ask Your Eminence to guide me on this matter in order not to fall into sin or incur Allah's punishment. We ask Allah (Exalted be He) to grant us and you protection. May Allah protect you and grant you success.
A:
It is permissible for you to marry that girl. Her mother being your father's cousin and her father being the paternal uncle of your mother does not prohibit marrying her. May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
