Muslim girl can marry at 15 if attains puberty: HC
06/06/2012 14:05:31  PTI

Ruling that a Muslim girl can marry as per her choice at the age of 15 years if she has attained puberty, the Delhi high court has held the marriage of a minor girl valid and allowed her to stay in her matrimonial house.

"This court notes that according to Mohammedan Law a girl can marry without the consent of her parents once she attains the age of puberty and she has the right to reside with her husband even if she is below the age of 18....," a bench of justices S Ravindra Bhat and SP Garg said.

Citing various Supreme Court judgements on the issue of minor Muslim girls' marriage, the bench said "In  view  of the above judgments, it is clear that a Muslim girl who has attained puberty i.e. 15 years can marry and such a marriage would not be a  void marriage. However, she has the option of treating the marriage as voidable, at the time of her attaining the age of majority, i.e 18 years."

Islam and Old Cultures
@shehab

Why Kuran ('the words of God'} not able to remove arab old cultures ? Even no leaf can move without the permission of Allah as you know.

Jai Bhavani !
Jai Hinduism !

Debate needed. Please do not condemn but debate !
Shehab has a valid point that muslims are also struggling with fundamentalists within their community. He seems to be one such muslim who thinks that this is wrong. Let us not blanket condemn people simply because of their birth. Every person has a brain capable of receiving illumination. It is the duty of every human being (and every Hindu thus) to work on this Dharma principle.

Now coming back to this law or act. Such special laws/interpretations cause various social problems. For example I have heard of Hindu and Christian married men converting to Islam to remarry without divorcing their current wife. I think this 15 year law is dangerous and may cause conversion or forced conversion to legitimize what will otherwise be a crime. Such laws should be thoroughly debated by society as a whole.

Please give thought
Please do not publish this in website for God's sake.A mindless thing called Family planning shamelessly promoted by Govts(including BJP Actively) is being promoted.Hindus are stopping only after 1 kid if the 1st issue is boy.Why this Kolaveri.If he dies what will the couple do-enjoy sexual life till death or what!!.Software couples cobbling more than 1.4 lacs per month in Hyderabad,Vishakapatnam etc-Cant they affor 3 children.Why cant Hindu Women sacrifice 7-8 yrs of life for her children.Will money be take with the corpse after the death.Hindu elite are doing great disservice to Dharma.In spite of huge "youth power" India is pimy befor China in warfare-India doesnt have sufficient ammunition to face war according to Maj.Gen VK Singh.Hindu couple particulaly the leite must be persuaded to produce 3 kids.Dont stop with 1 for Gods sake.Census 2011 findings of EENADU Telugu daily showed that there is a steep decline in 0-6yrs age group population from 1991-2001 and exponential decrease from 2001-2011.Think about it-dont publish it

Is it....
Is it applicable in love jihad marriages also? The judge should clarify. If some one from that community marry any other community girl below eighteen, can her parents sue the culprit? That creature called judge should clarify.

Muslims
Reply to Shehab

Followers of Islam are always doing things which are to be insulted. All muslims are not terrorists but almost all terrorists are muslims. And finally muslims have succeeded in enacting a law in Egypt allowing sexual intercourse with dead wife also.Do you want us Others to appreciate this in the name of religion?

Jai Bhavani !
JAi Hinduism !

Let them...
Well, 15 is much higher than one to fourteen. Let them marry at any age.
Why should we worry about it?

Shame. Shame to the democratic set up
What a shameful judgement it is. The institution of judiciary itself functions now as an agent of discrimination in the contemporary India. The judgement is the latest example to the judicial murder of Mother India. The message of the judgement is, no doubt, is an advise to Muslims that to seek the advise of Deoband seminary or illiterate Mullas for the interpretation of Indian Muslims legal questions. Again to Christians you can meet Pope or Sonia for the same! Thanks.

This is not a threat to Hindus
I don't think this is a threat to Hindus. Hindus need to worry about Pseudo-secularism perpetuated by Khangress.

Crazy Mohammedan Rules
India is supposed to be a secular country where independent Judiciary interpret and supervise all laws enacted by the Parlimanet. Then why allow Mohammedans to follow Islamisim and foolish Mullah interpretation of cruel Sharia codes. Recently a Mullah has issed a decree where any Mohammedan is allowed to have sex with a dead women. Polygamy and deviant sex may be a practice of all Islamists. But why a secular country allow Sharuia codes to be interpreted and implemented by Mohammedans. Islamists are always wrong in their attitudes toward dealings with young grils and women. In India, where the Supreme court Chief Judge is also corrupt can only appease Islamists. A climate of graft and corruprion exist in India. That is why Mohammedans are able to threaten the majority. Hindus are becoming their own worst enemy. Lissten and wake up Hindus.

Shame!
shame on our country to have let such judgements pass.

This is the reason why India must gravitate towards uniform civil code.
Muslim-exclusive IITs and IIMs, Muslim-exclusive Kendriya Vidyalayas, Muslim-exclusive scholarships and banks and the rest exclusive to Muslims. Are such Muslim-exclusive institutions solutions for the problems of Muslims? Or being exclusive is the very cause of their problems?
