A viral image of a man now dubbed 'the Arab world's youngest grandfather', is taking social media by storm.
The 33-year-old Jordanian man, Kamal Al Talfity, reportedly got the title after his 16-year-old daughter gave birth last week.
Speaking to local news outlets, Talfity, who married at the age of 16 and is now father to seven children, expressed his happiness over becoming a grandad.
"Thank God, I am so happy. Children are a gift from God," he said.
Yep... a grandfather at 33!
Soon after the news began to circulate online, it sent social media users into a complete meltdown.
While many congratulated Talfity over the birth of his first grandchild, others were outraged by the fact that his underage daughter is now a mother.
People just can't wrap their heads around it
"That's his son... it just can't be his grandchild, that's impossible."
"I calculated... still not getting this"
People have soooo many questions...
"OK, so how old is his wife then?"
"How????"
Others are understandably confounded
"He's happy with this 'achievement,' he didn't live his own childhood and then didn't let his child live hers... he's regressive."
"Maybe try the most regressive grandfather in the Arab world"
Many are raising this point
"Such regressive traditions, when a girl hits 20 they want to marry her off and think she's mature enough. In my opinion, before a woman is 30, she should take all the time she needs to live her life."
Not everyone is upset though... a few are quite excited for the man
Some are congratulating him over the news
"Congratulations."
Underage marriage is technically not illegal in Jordan
In 2002, Jordan amended its Personal Status Law, raising the legal age of marriage to 18.
There were still a few exceptions mentioned in the 2002 amendment, but it was, nevertheless, considered a great step forward.
However, earlier this year, the country's government issued new rules under which "girls can marry at the age of 15 if certain conditions are met beforehand."
The conditions include, "the husband not having been married before, the girl being allowed to continue her education after marriage and an age difference of fewer than 15 years."
The latest move, which was reportedly aimed at curbing the high rate of illegal child marriage in Jordan, drew intense criticism from human rights activists and groups.
Jordan continues to record some of the highest rates of child marriage in the region, but the kingdom is certainly not the only country facing the widespread >global problem.
