No Sis history tells us that interracial marriages are doomed to failure. Too many differences and cultural barriers are a strain to every strong faithful couples. I wouldn't advice anyone dear to me to marry outside their race. As we also know even if the couple are willing to make it work, the family usually is the devils advocate. It's sad but it's the truth in our society. My cousins are married to other races and I've seen hell break lose in their marriages.

I am Sorry but your approach isn’t correct and I know a little about Somali communities. I had a good friend of mine (Indian) and he wanted to marry a Somali girl but the father refused saying, “You are Indian and my daughter is Somali” so it wouldn’t work.

Fact of the matter is that Somali Sisters are very nice and there is no reason why people shouldn’t marry them.

All of this cross-cultural mumbo-jumbo needs to be CRUSHED so if someone is saying that cross-cultural relationships don’t work, then it should spur us (as Muslims) to PROVE THEM WRONG!
If our Brothers & Sisters continue to get bothered about culture and ethnicities then how will so many Sisters and brothers get married.

Allah (SWT) has made all us different and given us different physical attributes to please people of different tastes and different likings.

Moreover Allah (SWT) has given men the right to have four (4) wives so there is nothing wrong with having wives from four (4) cultures!

Our culture is I-S-L-A-M and if somebody thinks otherwise, go out and prove them wrong!
