ABSTRACT

Marriage is perhaps one of the most significant social and legal organizations in the world. Most households are built on the socially and legally acknowledged tie between a male and a female. However, there is also no universally accepted definition of matrimony. Tradition, religion, and socioeconomic status are all inextricably related to its meaning. The sole objective of this article is to provide a comparative viewpoint. The minimum age for marriage is the major topic. Both human rights organizations and multilateral agreements are concerned about child weddings. There is a clear correlation among marrying age and women's general social status: the sooner a female marries, the less time she has for schooling, work, and self improvement. Numerous efforts have been made in numerous nations to prohibit adolescents from marrying.
