Actor and activist Nadia Jamil called out Maulana Fazlur Rehman for opposing the Child Marriage Restraint Act 2025.
Nadia Jamil Questions Fazl’s Silence on Child Abuse
She questioned why he never protested against child abuse or demanded stronger laws to protect children in Pakistan.
Speaking at a press conference in Peshawar, Fazlur Rehman argued that the law was shaped under foreign influence. He claimed, “Pakistan’s identity is Islam, and that identity is under threat.”
Activists Nadia Jamil Push Back Against Mulana Fazl’s Stance
Nadia Jamil and other activists have condemned Fazl’s opposition. They argue that oooochild marriage harms young girls, leading to health risks and lost education. Many demand stricter enforcement of laws protecting minors.
Why the Child Marriage Restraint Act Matters
The Child Marriage Restraint Act 2025 aims to:
- Set a minimum marriage age to protect minors.
- Reduce early pregnancies and health complications.
- Ensure education rights for young girls.
While religious conservatives support Mulana Fazl’s stance, human rights groups back the law. The debate continues as Pakistan balances Islamic traditions with child protection laws.
Final Thoughts
Nadia Jamil’s criticism highlights a growing clash between activism and conservatism in Pakistan. Will the government prioritize child rights or yield to political pressure? The answer could shape Pakistan’s future.
