Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64: Sahih Bukhari Aisha: that the Prophet married her when she was six
years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with
him for nine years (i.e. till his death).
The intervals between prayers are used for quick stands "I used to wash the traces of Janaba
(semen) from the clothes of the Prophet and he used to go for prayers while traces of water were
still on it."
From Khomeini's book, "Tahrirolvasyleh", fourth volume, Darol Elm, Gom, Iran,
1990 : A man can have sexual pleasure from a child as young as a baby. However he should not
penetrate, sodomising the child is OK. If the man penetrates and damages the child then he
should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however does not count as
one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girls sister.
[...] It is better for a girl to marry in such a time when she would begin menstruation at
her husband's house rather than her father's home. Any father marrying his daughter so young
will have a permanent place in heaven. How it all began ( a long time ago in the isolated
deserts of Arabia) : Already, when Aisha (the daughter of Abu Bakr, Mohammad's closest friend
and unquestioning ally) was about 4-5 years old Muhammad started dreaming of a union with her
[Ref: SAHIH BUKHARI, 5:235] and he wasted no time in realizing his dreams, inspite of the
fact that object of his dreams was a mere child.Perhaps you want to assume that it is
"normal" for a 50+ year old man to dream of marrying a 4-5 old child, and then ACTUALLY ask
for her hand at 6?
Is it normal for an oversexed old man (Muhammad had over 9 wives and concubines) to dream of a union
with a 4-5 year old girl?
Muhammad ( SAW ) was basically oversexed, his sexual relationship with Aisha is a special case,
which fits his strong need for a larger latitude to satisfy his sexual urge, as is witnessed by:
"The Prophet used to visit all his wives in a round, during the day and night and they were eleven
in number." I asked Anas, "Had the Prophet the strength for it?" Anas replied, "We used to say that
the Prophet was given the strength of thirty (men)." And Sa'id said on the authority of Qatada that
Anas had told him about nine wives only (not eleven)." [Bukhari.1:268]
When she was 6, Muhammad asked Abu Bakr, Aisha's father, for her hand. Abu Bakr thought it was
improper, because, as he said "I am your brother"; Muhammad brushed aside Abu Bakr's reservation by
saying that it was perfectly lawful for him to marry Aisha [ Ref: SAHIH BUKHAR I7:18].
What happened to " there is no compulsion in matters of religion ?" Anyway what compulsion did
Muhhammad need being a prophet his word was law, he restricted men to only four wives when he
himself had more than four, that was a convenient exemption for Muhhammad.
So, Aisha was betrothed to Muhammad, and 3 years later, i.e. when Aisha was 9, the marriage was
consumed. And Muhammad was 53 then [SAHIH BUKHARI
1991:236,7:64,7:65,7:88] .
The 3 year waiting period probably had to do with the fact that at that time Aisha had contracted
some disease, whereby she, temporarily lost her hair. Aisha was then socially and psychologically
still a child as is evidenced by the fact that she was still given to her toys, she was unaware of
what was happening around her, and her playmates behave as would the children at present times
[Sahih Bukhari 8:151,5:234].
Aisha became Muhammad's favourite wife. And the sexuality in the relationship was predominant [
SAHIH BUKHARI .1.270, 3:36, 7:6, 3:148, 3:149, 3:150, 7:142, IbnSa'd 1pg165 ]. Later, Aisha was to
be called the "mother of believers". If you are wandering, yes, the relationship was pedophilic.
When did the sexual relations between Prophet Mohammad and his child bride begin?
Unfortunately we do not have any video recordings of such events. Neither can we expect that there
would be any explicit statements regarding this. In any case it is certain that she had NOT reached
puberty when she moved into Muhammad's house, which in itself, contrary to the prevailing social
norms, is a tacit implication that he may indulge in whatever fantasies he may have had when he
asked for Aisha's hand. And Muhammad did have fantasies.
Volume 8, Book 73, Number 151: Narrated 'Aisha: I used to play with the dolls in the presence of
the Prophet, and my girl friends also used to play with me. When Allah's Apostle used to enter (my
dwelling place) they used to hide themselves, BUT the Prophet would call them to join and play
with me. (The playing with the dolls and similar images is forbidden, but it was allowed for
'Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty.) (Fateh-al-Bari
page 143, Vol.13)
It is, however, very unlikely that Muhammad would have waited for the onset of the menses; or at
most it could have been just after the 1st drops. The evidence is necessarily indirect.
# His strong desire to "graze of the (tree) of which nothing has been eaten
before", as his other wives had not been virgins.
# Menses or fasting do not reduce Muhammad's desire and potency for sex. His
nightly rounds to his wives(lastly 12-13) did require more than average potency.
# New additions to his harem lead to intensive sexual activity, e.g. arrival of
Maria lead to increased, initial spurt of sexual activity to the neglect of others .
# The intervals between prayers are used for quick stands "I used to wash the
traces of Janaba (semen) from the clothes of the Prophet and he used to go for prayers while traces
of water were still on it."
# Other wives try to please Muhammad by sacrificing their turns in favor of
Aisha.
# During his last fatal illness he cries: "Where will I be tomorrow? Where will
I be tomorrow?", seeking Aisha's turn.
Prophet Say: Marry Young Virgins Volume 7, Book 62, Number 17: Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah: When I
got married, Allah's Apostle said to me, "What type of lady have you married?" I replied, "I have
married a matron' He said, "Why, don't you have a liking for the young virgins and for fondling
them?" Jabir also said: Allah's Apostle said, "Why didn't you marry a young girl so that you might
play with her and she with you?'
Silent Children : Volume 7, Book 62, Number 67: Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "A matron
should not be given in marriage except after consulting her; and a virgin should not be given in
marriage except after her permission." The people asked, "O Allah's Apostle! How can we know her
permission?" He said, "Her silence (indicates her permission)."
Where sex is akin to a crime, silence is admission of your guilt. What a corruption of "fitrah" (
human nature).
What religion condones the destruction of childhood? What are we who daily avow our undying love for
Allah to do against a system that ruthlessly oppresses its youngest and brightest ?
What was Aisha's age? I have heard other figures ... (A question also known as: How many of your own
sources will you deny ? ) All the relevant sources (Bukhari, Ibn Hisham, Tabari, Ibn al-Athir, Ibn
Sa'd, Ibn Hanbal, etc.) maintain that Aisha was bethroted to Mohammed when she was 6, and the
marraige was consummated 3 years later.
'Mahommad - The Word of Allah' written by Anne-Marie Delcambre. (Anne-Marie Delcambre has a
doctorate in 'Islamology', and taught Islamic Civilisation at the Saint Joseph University of
Beyrouth in Lebanon). On page 69, it says that he was married to her when she was 9 years old.
Dates commonly accepted by scholars: Birth Muhammad(570), birth Aisha(614 or
1992). Bethrothal(620 or 621), Consummation of marriage(623 or 624). In particular the
"consummation" of marriage is said to have taken place after the hidjra in Shawwal 1 or 2.
Between 621 and 623 Asiha is said to have contracted a disease whereby she temporarily lost her
hair. (Ref 1)
She could not have been more than 10 years when she went to live in Muhammad's house. The fact that
she took her toys with her to her new home indicates that she was psychologically and socially still
a child. And the fact that she was allowed to play with DOLLS indicates that she had NOT reached
puberty by this time. ("The playing with the dolls and similar images was(is) forbidden, but it was
allowed for Aisha at that time, as she was a little girl, not yet reached the age of puberty."Fateh-al-
Bari page 143, Vol.13). Besides, there is also Aisha's own statement which implies that she had NOT
reached puberty when she moved into Muhammad's house[Sahih Bukhari 7.163]. I am sure she would have
been able to recount accurately as to when and where she got her first menses. Most girls do
remember such events rather accurately. (Refs 2)
What is "sick" is that Muhammad had started to dream of a union with Aisha already when she was 4-5
years old: "You were shown to me twice (in my dream) before I married you...(and) I said (to
myself), 'If this is from Allah, then it must happen." He was to use a similar tactic when he wanted
to marry his step son's wife. A tactic which Aisha later came to understand as fraud, as in: "Aisha
said: O Allah's Apostle! I do not see, but, that your Lord hurries in pleasing you." (Refs 2)
http://www.papillonsartpalace.com/muhtpammed.htmIt happens all over the world, sure. But it happens with incredibly consistency and in the public eye in Muslim countries. There's the difference. While the rest of the civilized world prosecutes and punishes people for doing it, Muslim countries welcome you with open arms and a pat on the back for landing a young one.
