Playing with girls in the name of Sharia law
The Manch believes that Muslim personal law is playing with girls in the name of Sharia law and there is a need for a nationwide movement on this. Islamic law considers a girl child eligible for marriage as soon as her period begins. Now even if the child is 11 or 12 years old. In such a situation, by the time she reaches the age of 20-22 years, the girl has become the mother of four to six children.
Muslim Manch says that keeping these things in mind, awareness campaign and mass movement will be run across the country for the upliftment and change of Muslim society. Various cells of the forum, playing their role, will prepare a plan for improvement by taking various sections of the society together. These schemes will be implemented in a sequential manner across the country.
