No, Ilhan Omar did not marry her brother. The claim that she married her brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi, to commit immigration fraud is a persistent rumor that originated in 2016 but remains unproven and false according to multiple fact-checkers and investigations by authorities. Ilhan Omar has repeatedly denied this allegation, calling it "absurd and offensive." She legally married Ahmed Nur Said Elmi in 2009 and divorced him in 2017; however, he is not her biological brother but a man she was legally married to as part of her marital history. The rumor has been politically motivated and has been debunked by credible sources.
