Fatima Sana Shaikh strongly criticized Iraq’s proposal to reduce the legal marriage age for girls from 15 to 9 years, calling it “horrifying.” She expressed her outrage through an Instagram story, sharing a news link titled, “Iraq plans to reduce the legal marriage age for girls from 15 to 9 years.”

Reacting to the news, Fatima wrote, “Uff! What does this even mean?” The proposed bill in Iraq’s parliament has sparked widespread controversy and concern. The bill aims to amend the personal status law, which currently sets the minimum marriage age at 18 years. If passed, it would allow citizens to choose between religious or civil authorities for family matters, potentially lowering the marriage age to an alarming nine years.
