Di'ja speaks against child marriage, reveals the danger in such

Di'ja Di'ja

Singer Di'ja has spoken against child marriage and allowing young girls to engage in "anything that has to do with sexual reproduction".

In a tweet she shared, the singer stated that girls should be allowed to get to 18 years of age before they can be exposed to such.

She wrote: "Our young girls need to be allowed to grow up before doing grown man and women things like marriage and anything to do with sexual reproduction. If you really mean well you will at least give her until 18 years old, while honestly guiding her spirit. Not everyone means well."

Giving a reason why she frowns against child marriage, Di'ja said: "DO YOU KNOW ABOUT OBSTETRIC FISTULA? Very high in young girls early marriages whose reproductive systems have not fully developed. Ya Allah we ask you for guidance. Our children cannot keep going through pain because of lack of understanding".
