I never have been on anything like this but am desperate.

My daughter (just 17) has had a very turbulent, volatile relationship with a muslim boy for about 7 months. I hadnt heard anything from her as she left my address, but then she texted me after a few days.

i was gobsmacked. She tells me she has "married" this muslim boy ... after phoning around, it appears that it was not a register office wedding (as she would have needed my consent) but that she got married in a mosque, and that it is legal.

Can anyone shed any light on this please? it appears the boy is about 16 ... could she be duped into thinking it was a legal ceremony?
