Very well said! :k: 
I don’t think 9 year old possibly have reached the age of puberty. besides, what was the reason for the prophet to marry her specialy when she was only 6 and prophet was allready married. what was the NEED for that??
Mughal…Stop telling these infantile thinkers to even think…They might hurt themselves…
These idiots don’t know, that the Holy Prophet :saw: was so powerful and so believed at the time, all he had to do was point to any number of girls or women and they would have been placed at his feet and no one would have dared to do anything about it…
Perhaps these screwball intellectuals who are graduates straight out of anti-Islamic websites don’t know that every wife that the Holy Prophet :saw: had was either a divorcee or a widow…
The most powerful man in the world had only a single virgin wife, and that too which was a marriage ordained by Allah :swt:…Just like Allah :swt: ordained the birth of Jesus :as: through a virgin mother…
Kids…
what u people fail to see is that it was a cultural norm at the time…
leave the companions aside, even his worst enemies never pointed a finger at his act or marrying ayesha (ra), because it was just so normal…
it took 1400 years after the prophet’s (saw) death for people just to figure out that it was a very shameful act… 
and remember ayesha’s elder sister was married to jaafar bin abu talib at the age of 11 years…

^ well, if you think about it, ( assuming you are interested), there was probably a need for it . Aisha Radi-Allahu-Anha's marriage to the Prophet Muhammad SAWS at an early age allowed her to be an eye witness to the personal details of his life and carry them onto the succeeding generations. She lived another 50 or more years after Rasullullah SAWS's death and developed into a spiritual, teacher and scholar. Nearly half the ahadith collected after the death of the Prophet (pbuh) were narrated by her. I am sure, having a role model like her, with unparalleled virtue, intelligence, wisdom and eloquence, made life easier for muslim women at the time (and continues to do so even now).
Hazrat Aisha 
has narrated hundreads of hadiths, could you find any examples of her being unhappy or being mistreated by the Prophet :saw:. If anything it was one of the most loving and commited marriages ever.
Have you got evidence of any of the companions or even his enemies ever complaining about this marriage?
She was happy, her parents were happy and the Prophet :saw: was happy, so why should anyone else have any right to complain.
It was in Allahs infinite wisdom, why he allowed such a marriage to take place, and even today Aisha is role model for all muslim women to aspire to.

If the marriage of Aeisha radhiallaahu 'anha was something which was despicable even at that time and in that culture, this fact would never have been recorded for posterity and all efforts to conceal or cloud it would have been undertaken.
But the fact that these Ahaadeeth have reached us after they were recorded centuries ago and to all the Muslim generations in between proved that the marriage was culturally and morally acceptable and the fact is also that the Muslim community at that time remained unshakened in its faith in his Prophethood and the message which he had brought bear testimony to this assertion.
We have to look at the life of Aiesha radhiallahu 'anha afterwards. She was without doubt one of the foremost scholars of Islam. It is even said that she had attained in her lifetime the position of Mufti - someone capable of giving religious rulings - a position very few Muslims will ever occupy.
She was seeked by many, both men and women, who hungered for knowledge and they came to her from all directions, Yemen, Bahrain, Syria. History does not know of any woman who was approached by so many for such a noble purpose.
If indeed she had became a victim of sexual abuse she would in most probability be devastated emotionally, psychologically, mentally and perhaps even physically but the achievements she had made in her life after the death of the Prophet proved that she was a woman who was in complete control of her faculties, becoming one of the intellectual giants of Islam.
And the fact that she had spoken so dearly of the Prophet was indicative of the innocence of the marriage and of the impeccable character of her husband because given the trust enjoyed by her by the virtue of her relationship with him, she could have unleashed a vengeful attack against him by attributing to him words or deeds of horrendous nature if indeed she was a victim of his supposed lust, destroying both the Prophet and Islam.
No sexual abuse victim would ever spoke positively of her attacker, much less becoming a channel that promote love and understanding of him and the message which he had brought.
^ very wellsaid At-Tawheed.

So you are saying that there might have been incidents which have been hushed up. What logic.
If that was an accepted practise then, OK. But now it is not an accepted practise.It is repulsive. Islam was supposed to be a religion that has stood the test of time(for the past 1400 years "no rules have changed") . Hence you mean to say that it is OK to marry a 6 year old girl and have sexual relationship with her when she is 9.

it still happens in the indian sub-continet and perhps might as well be happening in other parts of the world too....
P.S. the weterners see marrying cousins as gross, so what shud we do about them....
best thing, ignore them, cuz it's all so fine and acceptable to us....

Nobody is saying it is right. We just ignore them. We dont go around proclaiming that it is right.
