Are you an agist?

Just kidding!

You already know that we make mistakes when we look at 2000 year ago and make these self-professed righteous remarks about the life back then.

those who attack the lifestyle back then are wrong
And
those who want to live like the way they used to live 2000 years ago are wrong too.

Thank you. That’s why I have a problem with Muslim countries allowing men to marry 9 year old girls. Supposedly, that’s a sunnah for them.

Ours are different time.

Having said that.

Marriage should never be about sex, and making babies.
At least one of the parents has to be financially stable as well.
Otherwise when young people have sex, and make babies, and then they cannot afford the baby, then the society at large has to pay for raising the baby.

Got it?

So it wasn’t about life expectancy then, now was it? If people were ok with marrying off 9 year girls to 50 year old men due to “less life expectancy” then why didn’t the same logic apply to 15 year boys being able to support a family? Since our life expectany was about 40 years then why weren’t 15 year old boys expected to take care of a wife? Yet a 9 year old wife was okay! Like I said, these ARE excuses.

In old time, there was no tax system, no county health system, no food stamps.

If you married a 9 years old girl to a 15 years old boy, there was no way in heck, that they could support their kids. 15 years old boy back then, or even now does not have enough expertise to earn money, and cannot have enough savings.

So he did not have enough expertise to earn money but she was expected to take care of the house and give birth to babies. Good Logic! A 9 year old, Come on! Don’t you see an injustice in that? I don’t care how long ago that was, but they knew to treat a woman like a property.

We in the modern society have focused too much on age, sex, & babies, and not enough on making sure that at least one of the parents would actually have enough money to raise the kids instead of becoming hopelessly dependent on taxpayers’ handouts.

You can say that about teenagers, who know nothing about their future goals. It only goes to show no matter how much time has changed, teenagers and kids are what they are. They should not be pushed into adulthood before they are even ready. Just because a girl reaches puberty at 9 doesn’t mean she is ready to make babies mentally. Aisha had no idea what was going on around her. There are Hadith clearly saying the state of her mind when she was being prepared for Muhammad.
