The views and opinions expressed here are the commentators' own and do not reflect the official position of Atheist Republic.
Turkey's religious body, the Directorate of Religious Affairs (Diyanet), faced harsh criticism for issuing a fatwa that allowed adoptive parents to marry their adopted children. The ruling was issued in response to a question about adopting children whose parents died in the massive earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria. “While Islam praised those who aid or take care of orphans, it does not recognize adoption as a legal status.” the body’s High Council of Religious Affairs wrote. The three-paragraph-long edict explained that adopted children could not inherit property from their adoptive parents. But the fatwa maintained that there is no obstruction to adoptive parents marrying their adopted children, even though marriage was not mentioned in the original question. Various organizations and individuals criticized the ruling for violating Turkey's civil code and paving the way for child abuse. The Diyanet retracted the fatwa in their second statement and emphasized the importance of respecting Turkey's laws.
