Islamabad High Court recognises that women's unpaid care work contributes to household's income, and women should be entitled to a share in marital assets regardless of title. Great step towards much-needed reform in family and property law in Pakistan. dawn.com/news/1984999

This veneration of D.F. Mulla's "Muhammadan Law" is a plague infesting the judiciary who seem to rely on a mere commentary of a Parsi to undermine the intent of the legislature of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan guided by Articles 2, 2A & 227 #ChildMarriage #MariaShahbaz #FCC

General legal principle has always been that NADRA documents registered prior to incident are deemed credible. Timeliness of registration was never an issue. FCC has introduced new absurd logic in a country where only recently NADRA established mega centers to ease registration

In a child marriage case, Federal Constitutonal Court refused to accept birth and Nadra documents because they were obtained after a delay. Non Muslims better get birth certificate on time or their daughters will be legally kidnapped x.com/dawn_com/statu…

The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC)  in Islamabad, has upheld the legality of a marriage between a Christian minor girl and a Muslim man nearly double her age, dismissing a petition filed by her father seeking her return through a habeas corpus plea. Speaking to Voicepk, Shahbaz Masih complained that the court had been unfair in its decision, saying that they had done everything to try and get their daughter back, but he could feel the systemic discrimination. 'We are awaiting justice,' he laments. Read: voicepk.net/2026/03/court-… @xarijalil

@awami_rational @Matiullahjan919 @Advjalila As mentioned by @aqliyatihuqooq in this press release, Section 7 of the Balochistan Child Marriage Restraint Act 2025 voids such marriages, while other provincial laws are silent but the marriage is deemed void as held by Justice Babbar Sattar in PLD 2022 Islamabad 228.

Minority Rights March raises serious questions over Federal Constitutional Court’s decision upholding an alleged underage child marriage. The group said that it was appalled and angered by the Order issued by a two member bench of the Federal Constitutional Court in the case of a minor Christian girl child, Maria Shahbaz, who is a victim of the crimes of abduction and child marriage, and may also be perpetually exposed to other heinous offences by her abductor. The FCC not only refused to restore custody of the victim to her father, but failed to rescue the minor victim by legalizing her cohabitation with her abductor under the garb of a “Nikkah” which itself entails penal consequences under the Child Marriage Restraint law.

ایسے قوانین کا کیا فائدہ جو انسانیت کی پامالی کرتے ہوں پاکستانی دنیا بھر میں کے مسلمانوں کے حقوق پر بات کرتے نظر آہیں گے اور اپنے ملک میں ہونے والے مظالم کو اسلام کے مطابق ٹھیک مانتے ہیں ۔ ان سے بڑا منافق اور کوئ نہیں افسوس ہے کہ ان صحافی نے بارہ سال کی بچی کو عورت لکھ دیا!

Thousands of Christian residents of Rimsha colony H9 & Allama Iqbal colony G7 gathered to commemorate Pakistan Day & protest CDA attempts to make them homeless. CDA has resumed mass demolition attempts of abadis after Eid. Please speak up to stop this travesty from occurring.

The threatened eviction of several katchi abadis in Islamabad, including Rimsha Colony and Akram Gill Colony, reflects more than an issue of illegal land use—it exposes a deeper structural inequality in how the state treats marginalized communities. Many residents, particularly Christians displaced after the Rimsha Masih case, were previously allowed to settle, build homes, access utilities, and register with state institutions like NADRA and the Election Commission. Despite this long-standing visibility and contribution to the city’s labour force, especially in sanitation and domestic work, their claims to land remain unrecognized.

On 20 March 2025, Bebarg Zehri was taken from his home in Quetta by CTD officials. After a year of unlawful detention, his family fears for his health, safety, and liberty. Bebarg’s detention, and the detention of all Baloch activists held solely for peaceful activism, must end now. 👉 Join our urgent action to demand their freedom 📝 amn.st/BalochActivist #ReleaseBebarg #ReleaseBalochActivists
