Ruba and Saqib both carry a gene for an incurable condition, which means their children have a one-in-four chance of dying in early childhood. They've already lost three. Ruba now wants IVF, to select a healthy embryo. Saqib is putting his trust in Allah. And some relatives want them to separate and remarry.
Ruba Bibi had not wanted to marry so young. She had planned to do A-levels and go to university, but before she had finished her GCSEs her parents arranged for her to marry Saqib Mehmood, her cousin, in Pakistan. Born and brought up in Bradford, Ruba had visited Pakistan twice before the wedding - once when she was four and once when she was 12. She couldn't really remember the man she was now engaged to and had never spent time alone with him. He was 27 and worked as a driver. She was 17.
"I was really nervous because I didn't really know him," she remembers...
After three months in Pakistan she was pregnant. She returned to Bradford two months later, shocked to be having a baby so soon. But also happy.
When their son, Hassan, was born in 2007 she excitedly called Saqib to tell him that all was well, although the baby seemed to sleep a lot and had trouble feeding.
"I just thought it was normal," Ruba says...
"When I went in, the doctor told me it was very bad news. She gave me a leaflet and said he has this condition and it's very rare...."
Ruba had no idea that both she and her cousin carried the recessive gene for I-cell, a rare inherited condition that prevents a child growing and developing properly.

“Did my children die because I married my cousin?”
No, they died because your gutter religion encourages cousins to marry.
Interbreeding. Another one of the many benefits of Islam Inc. /s
Why the low IQ in Arab/Muzzie Countries?
Should Chelsea be worried? She’s from Arkansas.
ISLAM: The “gift” that keeps on “killing”!
Islam does everything wrong.
I read that about 20% of marriages in Muslim countries are between first cousins. Has been for ages, and certainly narrows down the gene pool.
50 generations of inbreeding will do that for you.

“Ruba had no idea that both she and her cousin carried the recessive gene for I-cell, a rare inherited condition that prevents a child growing and developing properly.”
From my long ago high school and college physiology and biology I learned that, if two people with the same recessive gene breed, they’ll produce offspring with the same gene. Two blue eyed blonds will produce blue eyed blond kids, that being a recessive gene. The same applies to those two. That’s why every major religion, except Islam, prohibits first cousin marriage.
‘Diversity’ brings such wonderful cultural enrichment, doesn’t it?
It is not so much that she married her first cousin. It is that the family trees on both sides have only one branch for as far back as they can reach.
We only line breed cows two deep. After that weird things start to happen.
Don’t mess with your cousins.
I had a student in Jr High whose family came from Pakistan. She was bright and pleasant. Her mother, a doctor, was Pakistani. I always worried that she’d be sent back to get married. Don’t know what happened to her. But I think of her when I read stories like this.
They would consider abortion and selective IVF before artificial insemination from a non-carrier?!?!?! smh
I know Ann Barnhardt is a little too radioactive for some folks here but she absolutely nails it !!

These Musloids are disgusting and retarded
H->! and Webb aren’t even kissin’ cousins.
Totally Correct.

Needs wider reposting.
Ruba and Saqib
No, your child died because your people have married cousins for 1400 years.
But if they get a divorce in Arkansas they will still be cousins.
