Are you for or against mix mariage , why ?
we agree for mix marriage because from it we can spread islam. Besides, there is no restriction in Islam to marry our own races. Also when children are born from mixed marriage, risk of developing disease of particular race can be reduced. We also can learn more of our partner's culture.
