Debunking a False Claim: Italian Catholic Wedding Video

A video circulating on social media falsely claims to show a man following "Sharia law" by kissing a child. However, the video actually depicts an Italian father kissing his daughter at a Catholic wedding.

"This sharia law"

is the misleading overlay text on a Facebook video posted by an Australian user. Other posts sharing the video have made similar false claims, including stating "Islam is a mental illness" and that it shows a child bride.

In reality, the video showcases a heartwarming moment between a father and his daughter at a Catholic wedding ceremony.
