Video: “You can marry a 7-year-old girl” – Nigerian Islamic Scholar says

Some Nigerian Islamic scholars have shared their thoughts on polygamy and child marriage as seen in many parts of the Northern Nigeria.

At the seminar organised by an Islamic scholar named Mohammed El Hassin, some of the attendees where asked to speak on polygamy and early marriage.

One of the participants said “polygamy is something from God”.

When they shifted the discussion to look at the right age for which girls should marry, one of the scholars said. “Islam insists on early marriage so that the girls can grow up to be responsible members of the society.”

Speaking further, he added, “You can marry as early as 7 years old.”

When asked if a six-year-old is ready for sexual relationship with her husband, El Hassin who organised the program echoed, ‘exactly!’ that a six-year-old girl is ready for sex when contracted into a marriage.

The video was shared by former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani Kayode who was speechless at the what the scholars saying. Watch below.
