Given the recent health and social challenges, along with the significant advancements in the field of genomics, this topic has resurfaced and has been adopted in many Arab countries as a prerequisite for marriage contracts. There is a debate regarding its obligatory nature, with some viewing it as a requirement and others as a preventive measure.
