About this ebook

In many communities across the Muslim world, cousin marriage is seen as tradition, trust, and family loyalty. But modern science reveals a quieter reality: repeated consanguineous marriage can significantly increase genetic risk for future generations.

This book does not attack faith. It explores the intersection of culture, religion, medicine, and family expectations with compassion and honesty. Through real-world stories, medical insight, and social analysis, it examines how love, honor, and tradition can unintentionally create cycles of preventable suffering.
