Most newspapers have reported that Imrana has been asked to marry her Father-in-law. I don’t think that is correct. Or, to be precise, I would be very surprised if it was correct. In Islamic law, they have a concept of Mahram. A father-in-law is “Mahram” to a woman (i.e. cannot ever get married to her because of her relationship with her husband. ) The problem seems to be that because of the rape, the husband too has become Mahram to her. This last point is, admittedly a leap of logic.But as I understand, once a Mahram, you are always a Mahram. So, I think that all they’ve done is pronounced her marriage void. This doesn’t make much difference to the cruelty that she is being subject to, but it does tell you how much effort reporters put into getting their facts right.
