GENETICS OF DISEASES, ETHICS AND BEAUTYIN SELECTION OF MATES (AN ISLAMIC PERSPECTIVE)

In Islam, the family that represents the nucleus of society is established on a healthy basis in all aspects including the health and genetics. Ethical and genetic understanding of diseases and beauty in selection of mates are discussed in this paper in the light of The Glorious Qur an and in Hadith, the Honorable Sayings of the Prophet of Islam, Mohammad (PBUH). Modern genetic understanding corresponds to Islamic instructions depicted from the Glorious Texts and demonstrates the antecedence of this religion and its texts revealed by Allah, The Creator. This strengthens faith and opens horizons for revealing further links between science and Glorious authentic texts in Qur an and Hadith. Is one who worships devoutly during the hour of the night prostrating himself or standing (in adoration), who takes heed of the Hereafter, and who places his hope in the Mercy of his Lord - (like one who does not)? Say: Are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition (The Glorious Qur an, 39:9)
