Mr. and Mrs. Friendly Exmuslim

Is getting married at 16 a good idea?

When a Muslim girl and a Jewish guy start to become more than friends, the Muslim girl's mother gives her an ultimatum: either never talk to this guy again, or get married. This left the Muslim girl to choose between two extremes, not fully understanding the scope of the decision she was about to make.

Yesterday, we covered a girl that got married at 16 and divorced at 17. This decision didn't happen in a vacuum. Her mother did not pull this idea out of thin air. In Islam, women are not allowed to be alone with the opposite gender unless it's their husband, brother, or father. He was also non-Muslim, and Muslim women are not allowed to marry non-Muslim men. Men and women are also encouraged to marry young, but I would argue, even in this case, many Muslim parents would be opposed to something like this.

This story is wild, and if you want to hear what happened to Maryam and her story, watch now. ⬇️
