“DNA Tests Are Forbidden for Muslims Says Islamic Cleric

An Islamic cleric has sparked debate after declaring that DNA tests are prohibited for Muslims under Islamic law. Speaking during a religious lecture, the cleric argued that such tests undermine the sacred trust and bond within families, emphasizing that Islam prioritizes faith and mutual respect over scientific verification in matters of paternity.

He stated, _“Islam teaches us to trust the word of a spouse and avoid actions that could lead to unnecessary doubt or conflict. DNA testing is not in line with these principles.”_

The statement has stirred mixed reactions, with some agreeing that DNA tests could disrupt family harmony, while others believe modern technology should be embraced to resolve disputes. The cleric’s stance has reignited conversations about the intersection of religion and science in contemporary society.
