[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you feel about Muhammed marrying a 9 year old? Do you consider him a pedophile? If not, would you allow your 9yr old girl to marry a 50 something prophet (assuming that "the prophet" returned?[/quote] Well, first of all I don't trust every 'historical' text out there that states this. We're relying on hearsay from hundreds of years ago and we should question its reliability to some degree. On the other hand though, my grandmother married at age 14. In some Muslim parts of the world it isn't unusual at all. Girls matured earlier back in those days, physically as well as emotionally. But lastly we have to remember that even if Muhammad married her, it does not mean he consummated the marriage while she was nine. He was apparently a very compassionate human who married sometimes to help a family, never for lustful reasons.[/quote]
