DNA Fingerprinting and its Impact on Lineage, a Jurisprudential Study Compared to the UAE Law

There has been a lot of jurisprudential disagreement regarding the validity of genetic fingerprinting and its being indistinguishable from the curse of denying lineage, as the majority decided to disable the role of this very accurate scientific method, which led to mixing of lineages in many cases. The aim of this research is to prove the validity of genetic fingerprinting in denying lineage, and to show the extent of its consistency and results with cases of denying lineage in Islamic law, and that it is not limited to cursing only. In his research, he relied on the inductive and analytical approach by collecting legal texts and jurisprudential opinions from the books of the four schools of jurisprudence and studying them analytically by clarifying the foundations on which the ancient jurists relied in the conditions for denying lineage, clarifying that they were not limited to what was reported in their time, and attaching contemporary discoveries in denying lineage. Giving it the same legal rulings as a matter of priority. The study supported the text of the UAE law and its judicial applications regarding denying lineage by genetic fingerprinting. This study contributes to enhancing the use of scientific methods to preserve lineages, preserve them from loss, and achieve the goals of religion in societies.
