Moroccans and rights groups are speaking out against a recent fatwa that would allow parents to marry off their underage daughters.
Opponents to Cheikh Mohammed Maghraoui's fatwa say the marriage of nine-year-old girls is a violation of human rights in general, and children's rights in particular. Maghraoui said that at the age of nine, girls are capable of marriage, just like Aisha was when the Prophet Mohammed married her.
Nine? Nein!

Well that is pretty pathetic Armon.
Do you know what rank or religious status you have to be to issue a Fatwa?
Do they require any education or training or can they just self-annoint themselves?
And do Fatwa's have the force of law?
