In pictures: Morocco on the march
Half-a-million Islamists demonstrated against the proposals in Casablanca
The anti-reform protesters marched in separate male and female columns
Supporters of the changes only mustered 40,000 at their rally in Rabat
The Islamists denounced the reforms as Western-inspired
The organisers in Rabat said their rally was against violence and poverty suffered by Moroccan women
The Casablanca march reflects a sharp increase in fundamentalist activity, since King Mohammed VI came to power last year
