It originates in Roman Catholicism not to marry 1st cousins.

Amongst the Muslims some Somalis see their 1st cousins who are their mothers-sisters-children as being brothers/sisters to them who they cannot marry,

even though they know it is not from Islam and Sheikhs tell them that they can marry these cousins if they want to many of them still feel this.
