Cousin Marriage and Somalia

This topic is a non issue in Somalia since we donβt really do extended periods of cousin marriages but regardless you canβt ban something Allah has made halal. One incident of a first cousin marriage only increases the risk by 1.7%-2.8% which isnβt really that much especially if the family has no history of genetic disorders which brings me to my second point.
If we ban cousin marriages because of a slightly elevated risk of a genetic disorder or illness, do we ban people with genetic disorders that can be inherited, like cystic fibrosis, Huntingtonβs, down syndrome, Alzheimers and many more from having children?

I would even go as far to say marry from a different Qabiil all together.
One positive dhaqan of the early Somalis was to create peace they would marry each others women. I think this is something good as we currently have a lot of conflict within Somalia.
Maybe if everybody made it a duty to marry from a completely different tribe this would increase the peace and love people have.
E.g if you are hawiye marry Daarood, Daarood marry Dir, dir Marry Digil and mirifle, Digil iyo mirifle marry hawiye etc and on and on.
At the end of the day you can't hate your reer abti. I've noticed the least qabiilist people usually have parents of different qabiils. They are less tribalist and more reer magaal.

i don't know because it's inconclusive and I'm knowledgeable on the issue to give answer to that question

We should be marrying other ethnic groups our genes are rotten by inbreeding for thousands of years.

I think it should be discouraged at the very least. I forgot to alter the beginning part to remove ban after i was doing more research.
Imam shafi discouraged cousin marriage especially routine cousin marriage. I said i donβt mind it as long as it isnβt common which is a fair assessment.
If your asking me if i had power if i would ban people with genetic disorders that can be inherited from parent to child.
It would depend on the likeliness of them getting it and how severe the illness we are talking about.
If its painful or debilitating i donβt think they should be allowed to. I think its child abuse by giving birth to a person who will have a shitty life.

Isaaq comes under ibn maqrobia
I've never met a 1st or 2nd cousin married couple. If we do marry it tends to be in clans of our own like a MX marrying a MJ or something. Sometimes sub clans marry as well but the relation is often tge great great grandfather. However the practice of 1st cousin marriages should definitely be a taboo.
We as men should marry other clans to strengthen relations but we should also marry certain ajnabis for genetic diversity. I suggest Turks, levantine, north African and most importantly other cushitic branches.

A good source of genetic diversity would be oromized somalis we could reintegrate them back into somalinimo
Digil and Mirifles can't be compared to hawiyes and daroods as they're much more heterogeneous, infact every clan is, an Eelay Bohorad marrying a Eelay Naasiye would be equivalent to Hawiye marrying a darood.

Hawiye and daarood are the same. If you look at hawiye and Daarood haplogroups you would see they are also heterogenous.
Look at Isaaqs one Subclan which have 4 or 5 different haplogroups.
That's not good reasoning. Most languages don't have a word for autism.
Somalis have really high amounts of genetic diversity so cousin marriage wonβt harm us, we are not whites or native Americans.
If youβre talking about Somali millennials in the west then yes itβs rare but gen X have engaged in cousin marriages quite a bit from what I can tell.

My problem is not the disgust its the genetic issues that frequent cousin marriages bring along.
