Islamic cleric promotes Child Marriage
Recently a well known Islamic cleric from Southi Arabia has made and announcement to legalize marriage s of preteen girls aged as low as 10-12 years. The powerful cleric Grand Mufti Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh said in a speech late on Monday that Islamic Sharia law allows the practice of pre-teen girls getting married and that if we deem them minors then it is an injustice for the pre-teen women.
“If it is said that a woman below 15 cannot be married, that is wrong. If a girl exceeds 10 or 12 then she is eligible for marriage, and whoever thinks she is too young, then he or she is wrong and has done her an injustice. ” the cleric said.
This is how them seem to be treating their women and girls - don’t let the women have the freedom of showing their faces ah not even eyes and marry the girls child as young as 10 to a person old enough to be her great grand father. Can a sensible group of people write such things ? Theythink they are fitto rule the world and want to make the whole world follow their mad ways.. May God forbid but such people are unfit to live let alone rule this world. MAY THE GOOD SENSE PREVAIL and THE Innocence of the Daughters of GOD be saved.
Wow, 10 years old how sad. I was playing with dolls back then. That is so terrible and upsetting.
yes that is exactly the age for children to play in the civilized world — but there is another world that doesn’t give any importance to sense and sensibilities of others.. and it is trying to ruin the whole of the world with it.
