Muhamad understands his religion correctly

Over the years we had many Muhammad worsippers  who weasel and  lie and deny everything about this most embarrassing record of Muhammad’s pedophilia in the hadith: Muhammad, the holy prophet of Islam married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage when she was nine.

It is refreshing to meet an adherent of the faith who tells us there is “nothing to be ashamed of”- so there you have it:

Muhamed - To y.m

I do not know where you get that we Muslims are ashamed by Muhammad peace be on him marriage to Aisha. You stated the hadeeth and you said he married her when she was six and consummated the marriage when she was 9. he consummated the marriage when she was 9 because she had reached pupirty. Nothing to be ashamed of there sir.

* I suppose “pupirty” means she menstruated. That was good enough for Muhammad, and that’s  good enough for the slaves of Allah for all time….

Now I do not know where you people get all those made-up stories about Muhammad being murdered by a Jewish woman.

Book to be published about Islamic oppression of women — fear of Muslim outrage

* That’s before the book is even published. Now watch this space. The book will probably never be  published, because the usual 1.5 gazillion Muslims will go apeshit, but we can’t blame them all for the tiny minority of extremists that will firebomb the publishers and assassinate the writer, because Islam is a religion of peace, and besides, Islam is not a monolith and all that jazz, and those who insult the RoP must be killed….

There is no Muslim outrage about this book yet, but the fear of it is palpable enough for the Sunday Times to write an article about it. And if that outrage does indeed materialize, this will be yet another case, as here and here and here, of Muslims becoming outraged over accurate representations of Islamic texts and teachings. “Fears of Muslim anger over religious book,” by Christine Toomey in The Sunday Times, May 31 (thanks to Twostellas):

An academic book about religious attitudes to women is to be published this week despite concerns it could cause a backlash among Muslims because it criticises the prophet Muhammad for taking a nine-year-old girl as his third wife.

mo-aisha1* Islam, a religion for pedophiles

* Really, really wishing Aisha weren’t nine

Why is there no Muslim backlash against the Bukhari hadith collection (the collection of Islamic tradition that Muslims consider most reliable), which reports the same thing in no less than five places? Find it at 5.58.234; 5.58.236; 7.62.64;7.62.65; and 7.62.88.

The book, entitled Does God Hate Women?, suggests that Muhammad’s marriage to a child called Aisha is “not entirely compatible with the idea that he had the best interests of women at heart”.

Not entirely, indeed. And the response Muslim women deserve is not outrage at the book, but reform where child marriage is rampant, and reform of other elements of Islam that oppress women. But nothing seems much less likely.

It also says that Cherie Blair, wife of the former prime minister, was “incorrect” when she defended Islam in a lecture by claiming “it is not laid down in the Koran that women can be beaten by their husbands and their evidence should be devalued as it is in some Islamic courts”….

* Don’t buy info on Islam from Cherie BLiar…

Indeed, she was wrong. Wife-beating is in Qur’an 4:34 and the devaluing of testimony is in Qur’an 2:282. So now there will be a “backlash” because truth rather than falsehood is revealed?

Yemen: "The West wants to teach us how to marry, conceive and divorce. This is cultural colonization that we reject"

Hmm, not really.  “The West” is pretty timid not to mention anything about Aisha who was 6 when she “married” Muhammad, a warlord in his fifties. If you call Muhammad a child-molester you might even end up in court and get a fine, along with being labeled ‘racist, bigot, Islamophobe.” You won’t find Aisha’s story in this article by DONNA ABU-NASR/Associated Press mentioned either. Why do you think that is?  Is the truth no defense?

 Of course, the whole concept of pedophilia did not exist in Muhammad’s day, but when he is taken as the supreme example of human conduct and imitated today, what results is…pedophilia. Muhammad’s consummation of his marriage with Aisha when she was nine is in the hadith collection Muslims consider most reliable, Bukhari, several times:5.48.234; 5.58.236; 7.62.64; 7.62.65; and 7.62.88.

What’s more, it is clear that Muslims take this seriously and imitate Muhammad in this. Article 1041 of the Civil Code of the Islamic Republic of Iran states that girls can be engaged before the age of nine, and married at nine: “Marriage before puberty (nine full lunar years for girls) is prohibited. Marriage contracted before reaching puberty with the permission of the guardian is valid provided that the interests of the ward are duly observed.”

Islamists fight Yemen law banning child marriage

She was 2 years old when her father promised her in marriage to a man in his 30s. It was a swap, so the father could marry the man’s sister without paying the obligatory bride-price. At age 9, the girl was put on a sack of rice to appear taller next to the bridegroom in the wedding picture. At 11, she was taken to her husband’s house to live. Despite promising not to consummate the marriage before she reached puberty, he tied her to a bed, stuffed a rag in her mouth and raped her, she says.  Read it all>>

That Aiisha 'Thing': Muhammad's 'beautiful pattern of conduct' wrecks the lives of children around the world

Saudi group tries to halt marriage of 10-year-old girl to man in his sixties

There’s that child marriage again. But it has nothing, mind you, nothing to do with Islam. Except the inconvenient matter of Muhammad’s marriage to Aisha (Bukhari 5.58.234). “Saudi group seeks to prevent sexagenarian from marrying child,” from Deutsche Presse Agentur, 

* And because Muhammad set “a beautiful pattern of conduct”  (Qur’an, al-Ahzab 33:21) (because he was the perfect cult leader who could do no wrong) he is to be emulated by every Muhammedan around the globe in everything he did till the end of time…

* That’s the reason why banning the practice in Islamic countries regularly fails: its against the Koran, and for believing  Muslims that is the direct command of Allah for all time…

Update on Yemen’s child bride case:

 “A lot of people in the public don’t think that this is wrong or that what happened to her was abuse”

Yemen’s world famous divorcee, Nujood Ali, 10, has been chastised by some in Yemen for speaking out about her arranged marriage.

This article ignores the role of Muhammad’s marriage to Aisha — consummated when she was nine — in why the practice of child marriage not only persists, but is so often praised in the Islamic world.

Nujood Ali Update. “Child bride gets divorced after rape, beatings,” by Paula Newton for CNN via DW

*   “Give me a girl of 8, and I can give you a guarantee” for a good marriage”  Child Marriage in Yemen,” by Robert F. Worth for the New York Times

If there is one promising aspect in this report, it is the acknowledgment of Muhammad’s own example as a factor in the persistence of child marriage in Yemen: Awareness of the nature of the problem will better focus efforts to solve it, keeping apologists from passing the buck on the basis of “culture” rather than religious practice.

Hard-line Islamic conservatives, whose influence has grown enormously in the past two decades, defend it, pointing to the Prophet Muhammad’s marriage to a 9-year-old. (correction: Aisha was 6 when the profit married her, and he consummated the marriage when she was 9)

It’s not the would be reformers who are ‘acknowledging’ it: it’s the Shariah advocates who are citing it in support of their opposition to the reforms in question. Surely you can make out the difference between a genuine process of reform that includes identification of problem areas, vs. the citation of the problem areas as support for the status quo?
