[QUOTE]Originally posted by freshsoda: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by doodlebug: [qb] Aisha was not a child when the marriage was consummated, only when it was planned, which is pretty usual for those times. Remember the Virgin Mary was about 14 years old when she had Jesus, pbuh. Even today, my grandmother was married at 14 years old back in the 1920's. It's only recently that it's in style to wait until your mid twenties/thirties to get married. [/qb][/QUOTE]But Aisha was only 9 years old according to Sahih Bukhari and Muslim the most reliable sources of Sunna Hadith while p.Muhammed was almost 50 years or above !!!!!! [URL=http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/bukhari/058.sbt.html#005.058.234]http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/fundamentals/hadithsunnah/bukhari[/URL] Volume 5, Book 58, Number 234: Narrated Aisha: The Prophet engaged me when I was a girl of six (years). We went to Medina and stayed at the home of Bani-al-Harith bin Khazraj. Then I got ill and my hair fell down. Later on my hair grew (again) and my mother, Um Ruman, came to me while I was playing in a swing with some of my girl friends. She called me, and I went to her, not knowing what she wanted to do to me. She caught me by the hand and made me stand at the door of the house. I was breathless then, and when my breathing became Allright, she took some water and rubbed my face and head with it. Then she took me into the house. There in the house I saw some Ansari women who said, "Best wishes and Allah's Blessing and a good luck." Then she entrusted me to them and they prepared me (for the marriage). Unexpectedly Allah's Apostle came to me in the forenoon and my mother handed me over to him, and at that time I was a girl of nine years of age.
