In his new article ‘Rethinking Consanguineous Marriages in a Diasporic Setting: A Case Study of ar-Rashidiyya Kinship Community’, FAU EZIRE researcher Mahmoud Jaraba analyses how younger members of the ar-Rashidiyya community in Germany are challenging traditional marriage norms. He concludes that consanguineous marriages within the community are no longer rigid practices, but are increasingly adapting due to the dynamics within the community and broader societal influences.
