What you’re saying it is true, but people can get the fetus tested but they choose not to. I don’t know if the technology is there in Pakistan or not, but the fact of the matter is, marrying you cousin is not haram, getting genetic screening is not haram, and if there should be something wrong with the fetus, Allah na kare, then as long as it is under 4 months, it is fine to abort because after four months is when the sould is breathed into it.
**Also, I study genetics. Most of the time, it depends on chance. Many genes in the human genome influence other genes. Everything in the human body is connected. **
The problem isn’t cousins marrying cousins. The problem is not getting the fetus screened. Even then, if they do get screened, it is the couple’s choice, and mostly the wife who is carrying the child, to decide if they wish to abort or not. If they chose not to, yes it will be hard, but the reward later will be above that. It will be hard on the child, but they will know they are loved, no?
**I would also like to point out that doctors and scientists that run these tests are also human so they can make mistakes. **
**I understand your position is to warn everyone, but ultimately it is their desicion, and it is Allah swt’s marzi. Shouldn’t we be thankful for what we have? **
