[quote=Anonymous]New to the Aisha/Muhammed subplot in this thread. Mutual love could not be a reason because Aisha simply wasn't old enough. Also, although the poetry of the time is full of romantic love, this almost never factored into marriage (much as in Europe in medieval times and later). So we are pretty much left with two scenarios. The first is an alliance as earlier described. The second is that Muhammed became besotted with the young Aisha and sought her hand in marriage. And her father agreed as he could readily see the advantage of the alliance that would result. Either way, an alliance, so that is my vote.[/quote]
