Dear Olympia,

Thank you for your question.

The response of first cousin on both father and mother's side refers to when a woman marries her cousin whose father is her uncle from her fathers side (ibn al amm) and whose mother is her aunt from her mothers side (ibn el khala).
The second response of first cousin on both mother and father's side refers to when a woman marries her cousin whose father is her uncle from her mother's side (ibn el khal) and whose mother is her aunt from her fathers side (ibn el amma).

Hope that is clear.

Best,
Shireen Assaf
