NO. Gerbils have 4-6 pups in each litter and can have regular litters so if you are going to breed them you have to know what you will do with the litter afterwards.

What will happen to the gerbil pups if the mother scratches them or hurts them?

Gerbil mothers are usually quite tough with their offspring so a couple of scratches is normal, it would probably be an accident and she will tend to it. If it is more serious it could be she rejected the pup for whatever reason. If that's the case just leave her to it - or you can do the 24hr job of hand rearing the pup. Trust me, my gerbil had 5 pups, she rejected one and it died- don't take any dead pups away, mum will sort it- and another had a large scratch on his tummy but its cleared up now.
