Under the Enactment, marriage is considered a contract (aqd) between a man and a woman. The couple must be of sound mind and have reached the age of maturity (baligh). The minimum age for marriage is 18 for men and 16 for women, but the court may allow marriage at a younger age under certain circumstances. The Enactment also requires the presence of two male Muslim witnesses during the marriage ceremony.
