If you got infected with malaria will it change the genes or not? And if you are planing on having children will it affect them

No, the Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria disease don’t infect the egg/sperm cells that make up your potential future children, and also just don’t do anything to change genetic material of the cells they do infect. In fact, those cells (red blood cells) have no nucleus and genetic material at all.
