This is not exclusively a muslim issue. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_coupled_cousins

The risks are dependent primarily upon autosomal recessive genes within the family line. In first cousins they will have 12.5% of genes in common. The increased incidence of birth defects is 2 to 3 percent greater than the general population.
