Islam does not forbid marriage of young children, the council said. However, the Rukhsati (consummation of marriage) is only allowed in the case that both husband and wife have reached puberty.

.

And when was this not happening or illegal in Pakistan? Bachpan ke Nikah, and Rukhsati after adulthood are very common in Pakistan. Why is this an issue, I dont understand.
