Blade Runner Redux
I recently re-watched Blade Runner, Director's Cut, version and was amazed at how good the movie was for something that came out in 1982. I say this because this movie picks up so many literary and philosophical themes, from Frankenstein to Crime and Punishment style existentialism.
I wonder how Muslims would deal with the ethical questions concerning genetically created androids or clones. I know that we would obviously object to such creations but what if others like non-Muslims created them, how would we deal with them?
I don't have the answers and Islam will deal with them when the situation arises. But I'm just wondering...

It says in the Holy Quran, Iblis will incite mankind to change Allah's creation. That is what genetic modification is...
