Legal age of Muslim boy marriage in India
1 year ago
Can you please tell me that what is the legal age of a "Muslim"boy to marry in India?.Because for Muslim girls it is 15 years but no one has mentioned about boys. And at what age can a muslim boy and muslim girl do court marriage legally?
A.Dear Client
There is no specific age for marriage in the holy scriptures of Islam; but, a man must be mentally, physically, and sexually capable of entering into a marriage.
The minimum age for marriage under the Child Marriage Restriction Act was amended in 1978 to be 18 for girls and 21 for men. But, the central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi has consented to raise the age of lawful marriage for women from 18 to 21 beginning in 2022.
