Marrying my second generation first cousin

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org

Is it ok or advisable to marry second generation first cousin(maternal Uncle’s daughter)?

My maternal Uncle has also married his maternal Uncle’s daughter..so this is a second generation first cousin marriage…I heard that there’s a hadith that we should not marry our first cousin over generation after generation…is it true?…because I am almost engaged and I am really confused..

NOTE-My father and mother has not married consuingenetally…

Assalamualaikum
