Can My Daughter Marry Her Cousin Without Breaking Our Nikah?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My question is regarding divorce. My daughter wants to get married to her cousin but my husband is completely against it. Last year he said in anger that if they do nikaah, our nikaah will be broken. Now he has realised he should not have said that and has said that that statement does not count anymore. If my daughter gets married to this boy will our nikah still be broken or is there a way out?

Bismillaah

A: It will break. If it does happen and you want to live together then you will have to renew your nikaah.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
