Poster of Oxfam Pilipinas’ statement on the issuance of fatwa or religious edict against forcing women to marry their rapist or perpetrator: We applaud the Bangsamoro Darul-Ifta for issuing a fatwa that declares forcing women to marry their perpetrator as haram or forbidden under the Shariah or Islamic law. The fatwa affirms the fundamental rights of women and girls and emphasizes that sexual violence must be met with justice: victim-survivors should not be trapped in a cycle of violence and perpetrators should not evade persecution.
