My God! That was so fluid and clear as explanation. This question is posed by Christians every time, especially when they're stuck and have no more arguments to defend their belief. The Cheick did really good here Wallah 👏
What was the age of Aisha (Aysha or Ayesha) at the time her alleged marriage(assuming she was married) to Islamic Apostle Mohammad? Although many Moslem scholars insist that Mohammad was single and lifelonng celibate, according to some jurists, his alleged youngest wife is Aisha (Aysha or Ayesha), the daughter of his closest companion. Her age at the time of marriage is uncertain. According to some fabricated narrations, she was 9 years old. However, according to alternative methods of calculating her age, if the woman Aisha existed, she could have been at least 18 years old. What is certain is that he did reach her puberty. Why was there confusion about this age narration? Most of the Hadith narrations mentioning her age was nine are reported through Hisham ibn Urwa while living in Iraq, where Hisham ibn Urwa is reported to have relocated after living in Madinah for seventy-one years. It is reported in one of the most well known books on the life and reliability of the narrators of the traditions ascribed to the Muhammad reports that Yaqub ibn Shaibah said, “narratives reported by Hisham are reliable except those that are reported through the people of Iraq”. It further states that Malik ibn Anas objected on those narratives of Hisham, which were reported through people of Iraq. Another book on the narrators of the traditions of the Muhammad reports that when he was old, Hisham’s memory suffered quite badly. We find evidence in both Hadith books and history books that indicates Aisha must have been much older than nine when she got married: According to a hadith in Bukhari and Muslim, Aisha is said to have joined Muhammad on the raid that culminated in the Battle of Badr, in 624 CE. However, because no one below the age of fifteen was allowed to accompany raiding parties, Aisha should have been at least fifteen in 624 CE and thus at least thirteen when she was married following the Hijra in 622 CE. In Prophet Muhammad's life, one of the most debatable topics was that of the age of his wife Aisha when the two became married. Her alleged young age has been used in smear campaigns against the Prophet, but Arab historians insist that Aisha, the daughter of Abu Bakr, was a woman of nineteen years at the time of her marriage. Numerous historical incidents point to the simple fact. It was common in Old Arabic to use abbreviations, such as six for sixteen and nine for nineteen, much like the way Old English method of saying one and twenty to mean twenty-one. Another critical piece of information historians cite is that the age difference between Aisha and her sister Asma was 10 years. According to this, Aisha’s year of birth was 605 (595+10=605) and her age at the time of the Hijra was 17 (27-10=17). Since her marriage took place seven or eight months after the Hijra, or just after the Battle of Badr, this means Aisha was 17 or 18 years old at that time. Ibn Hisham’s version of Ibn Ishaq’s Sirat Rashul Allah, the earliest surviving biography of Muhammad, records Aisha as having converted to Islam before Umar ibn al-Khattab, during the first few years of Islam around 610 CE. In order to accept Islam she must have been walking and talking, hence at least three years of age, which would make her at least fifteen in 622 CE. Tabari reports that Abu Bakr wished to spare Aisha the discomforts of a journey to Ethiopia soon after 615 CE, and brought forward her consultation of marriage to Mut`am’s son. Some say she was already married to her cousin and some say she had a child with him as she was famously known to have a son and was nick named umm abdullah (mother of abdullah) , however some say she adopted that boy as her son 10 years before her marriage with the prophet. Mut`am refused to keep Aisha as his wife, because Abu Bakr had converted to Islam, but if Aisha was already of marriageable age in 615 CE, she must have been older than nine in 622 CE. Tabari also reports that Abu Bakr’s four children were all born during the Jahiliyyah (Pre-Islam Period), which has ended in 610 CE, making Aisha at least twelve in 622 CE. According to Ibn Hajar, Fatima was five years older than Aisha. Fatima is reported to have been born when Muhammad was thirty-five years old, meaning Aisha was born when he was forty years old, and thus twelve when Muhammad married at fifty-two. According to the generally accepted tradition, Aisha was born about eight years before Hijrah (Migration to Medina). However, according to another narrative in Bukhari (Kitaab al-Tafseer) Aisha is reported to have said that at the time Surah Al-Qamar, the 54th chapter of the Qur’an , was revealed, “I was a young maiden”. The 54th Surah of the Qur’an was revealed nine years before Hijrah. According to this tradition, Aisha had not only been born before the revelation of the referred Surah, but was actually a young maiden, which generally means a female teenager, not even only an infant at that time. So if this age is assumed to be 7 to 14 years, then her age at the time of marriage would be 14 to 21 or even 28. The fake narration about Aisha was added to Islamic books by some disgruntled monks who were upset with Mohamed, because he was single and virgin till his death, but someone fabricated hundreds of lies in order to create a bizarre number like 12 wives, taking inspiration from Jesus 12 companions.

It was narrated that 'Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allah married me when I was six, and consummated the marriage with me when I was nine, AND I USED TO PLAY WITH DOLLS." أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ آدَمَ، عَنْ عَبْدَةَ، عَنْ هِشَامٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ تَزَوَّجَنِي رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَأَنَا بِنْتُ سِتٍّ وَدَخَلَ عَلَىَّ وَأَنَا بِنْتُ تِسْعِ سِنِينَ وَكُنْتُ أَلْعَبُ بِالْبَنَاتِ . Grade: Sahih (Darussalam) Reference : Sunan an-Nasa'i 3378 My concern with these Hadiths is Aishah's overemphasis on mentioning her playing with her dolls often just randomly throwing this in there in the narrations even though it contextually has nothing to do with anything, she just for some reason mentions them and it's very strange to me. Why does she do that? It gives off a very strange picture in my head when I read it and it's confusing. To mention such a thing would be done if you want to imply that you're still too young or not ready (that's at least what I would do). Non Muslims are using these Hadiths to mock Islam and our beloved prophet ﷺ and I'm telling you people are shocked and disgusted and none of us are able to defend this publicly without getting branded with the P-word (don't want to say the word). This isn't fair and our prophet's entire image is getting tarnished even if this was a normal thing in the past, these narrations don't seem normal to me and they seem to be reported by other than prophet's close ones. Why would 'Aishah say "The prophet married me when I was 6, consummated at 9, and I used to play with dolls." This is so incredibly strange to me and completely unnatural and I can only imagine a hater lowkey munafiq claiming she said this so that our prophet's reputation would suffer. It reminds me of this ayah: "But there are, among men, those who purchase idle tales, without knowledge (or meaning), to mislead (men) from the Path of Allah and throw ridicule (on the Path): for such there will be a Humiliating Penalty." (31:6) In another narration, 'Aishah said: "I used to play with dolls when I was with the Messenger of Allah, and he used to bring my friends to me to play with me." حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، حَدَّثَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْقَاضِي، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كُنْتُ أَلْعَبُ بِالْبَنَاتِ وَأَنَا عِنْدَ، رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ فَكَانَ يُسَرِّبُ إِلَىَّ صَوَاحِبَاتِي يُلاَعِبْنَنِي . Grade: Sahih (Darussalam) Reference : Sunan Ibn Majah 1982 Abu Bakr's and Umar's Marriage Proposals for Fatimah (as) were Rejected by the Prophet (saww) Nasai, Hakim, Hanbal, and others state: Abu Bakr and Umar asked the Prophet (saww) for Fatimah's (as) [hand in] marriage. He said, "She is [too] young." Ali then asked for her [hand in] marriage and he married her to him." (Sunan Nasai #3221; Mustadrak Hakim #2705 (certifies the tradition as authentic by the criteria of Bukhari and Muslim); Fada il Hanbal #1051; Kanz al-Ummal #36370; Riyad al-Nadirah 3:144) Hakim says, "This tradition is authentic by the criteria of both Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) but neither of them included it" (Mustadrik Hakim #2705). Why would the prophet of Allah reject Abu Bakr because of the huge age difference between him and Fatima, and her being a little too young for him, while at the same time this wasn't a concern to him while marrying his daughter, 'Aishah... In this Hadith we clearly see that the Prophet had a moral opinion about the age difference, it's something (at least disliked) but I would assume not OK as it is not befitting. Why this blatant contradiction? Something isn't adding up! Someone has fabricated something here if you ask me and I would without blinking think it's the 'Aishah narrations, even if they're in Sahihayn. Allah promised to preserve the Qur'an, not the Sahihayn... we need to stop treating the Sahihayn as if they're the Kalam of Allah! They're prone to distortions, contradictions, fabrications and everything else the Kitab of Allah isn't: "Do they not then reflect on the Quran? Had it been from anyone other than Allah, they would have certainly found in it many inconsistencies." (4:82) Wa Allahu a'lam, Allah forgive me if I have said anything wrong. I accept the case however it may be and I don't look down upon it, I just love Rasulullah too much to let this slide and sit on ice while the K*ffar are rejoicing with it.
I personally don’t believe the prophet ﷺ married sayyida Aisha at the age of 6 but even if we assume he did, a 9 year old 1400 years ago is the polar opposite of a 9 year old today. We can only picture a 9 year old from the lens of the 21st century who behave much younger than they actually are - (this applies to everyone not just children sadly) Women (& men) 1400 years ago were precocious & matured way quicker than children today. Also, the average life expectancy has shot up since the time of the prophet ﷺ due to our understanding of science, diseases, medicine etc. Women on average go through puberty a couple years before men also. Another point that wasn’t mentioned in the video is that the prophet ﷺ marriage to sayyida Aisha was something that was revealed to him in 2 separate dreams before the marriage took place & the proof for this can be found in l authentic Hadiths which in both Sahih Bukhari & Muslim. Shaykh Hamza Yusuf relates a story in which a woman told him that she was having a very hard time overcoming the age of Sayyida Aisha at the time of marriage. He gave her a general answer just like Shaykh Asrar Rashid did in this video & then she left. Around a week later in Madinah she approached the Shaykh again with tears in her eyes. He asked her what was wrong & she said that she felt so at ease after feeling troubled for so long. She said that since they first met she had a dream in which the prophet ﷺ explained why the marriage took place. He ﷺ explained that Sayyiduna Abu Bakrs maqam with Allah was already so high that becoming the father in law of the prophet ﷺ increased his maqam even more. Another thing to note is that nobody at the time apposed the marriage & nobody historically apposed it either up until the last couple centuries. & Allah knows best o
At about 1:03 it is claimed that Child-Marriage is supposedly prohibited in the Quran. But Q65:4 is mentioned by the Asharite creed's website and many other fatwas as legitimizing child-marriage. So the Quran allows child-marriage. Guardians can agree a betrothal-nikkah if the girl is too young for consent (Like Abu Bakr did for 6 year old Aisha) and from age of puberty (minimum 8 years and 9 months) girls can consent themselves to marriage and intercourse. If a girl is betrothed she gets the "Option of Puberty" which means she can rescind the marriage when she attains maturity. However, intercourse can precede Option of Puberty.
@rihannaa Thanks for us to agree on the presentation being dishonest. Unfortunately I do not share your interpretation on consummation. All madhabs indicate that child-marriage has to have a reason, but poverty of the uardian can be a valid reason (as can be many other reasons). So the required benefit is too easily claimed. The "Age of Pubery" being 9 means that the girl has to be asked from the age of 9 if she wants to get married, it does not mean that a bride has to give consent to intercourse. Under the age of 9 a girl has no right of consent or withholding consent. Baugh's "Minor Marriage in Early Islamic Law" clearly states that the legal language changes if the girl is a minor and muftis use the term "husband performed intercourse on her". The Assembly of Muslim Jurists in America (AMJA who publish fatwas on amjaonline ) have a fatwa called marying prepubescnet girls which uses the term "made to have sex" if the girl is too young to have consent and clearly lets intercourse precede "Option of Puberty" so consummation doubtlessly precedes adulthood. Bin Baz (grand mufti KSA 1993-1999) has a fatwa where he specifically indicates that the guardian consults the mother and other female relaives to help the guardian decide whether a girl is "ready for intercourse".
@rihannaa Expecting a girl of 9 or younger to stand up for her rights is unfair on a young girl. There is also the point that girlsnotbrides directly links poverty to child marriage and in "An Islamic human rights perspective on early and forced marriages " also notes the practice not necessarily is Islamic, but it is allowed in all 4 madhabs in Islam. So, is Islam to blame or partially to blame for legalizing the practice and providing Muhammed as an example? Of course Islam is. It is no coincidence that Niger is the worst country in the world for child-marriage.
@@jj-yi1ne It is simply not true that any madhab prohibits it. girlsnotbrides (UN organization started by bishop Tutu) reports this on Islam and child-marriage & Option of Puberty ----- /learning-resources/resource-centre/an-islamic-human-rights-perspective-on-early-and-forced-marriages/ >Dispelling myths: The issue of early betrothal > >In some communities it is normal for parents, particularly fathers, to betroth or marry their children while they are still minors, on the understanding that the marriage will be consummated at a later date. This practices occurs in different societies for various social and tribal reasons and is by no means an inherently ‘Islamic’ practice. > >However, Islam does not forbid this practice in principle but allows it on the condition that the marriage can be rejected or upheld by the male or female upon reaching puberty. This is because, as in any other marriage, until they reach comprehensive maturity they have no legal capacity to give their consent. > >It is unanimous in all four schools of thought that the male and female have a right to exercise their choice, ‘khiyaar al-buloogh,’ upon attaining majority or reaching puberty. So minor marriage still happens and is still allowed. If you claim it is supposedly prohibited: show clear evidence.
Aqd nikah is allowed between two parties at any age. Sexual intercourse is only allowed between sane, intellectually sound, physically mature individuals.
It is NOT the fault of imam Bukhari if you guys who Dio the printing of hadith books & print errors the age of Aisha when she was engaged to Muhammad saw was 19 NOT 9, She was between 19 to 25 when she married Muhammad saw
1:54 your a liar حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كُنْتُ أَلْعَبُ بِالْبَنَاتِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَكَانَ لِي صَوَاحِبُ يَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا دَخَلَ يَتَقَمَّعْنَ مِنْهُ، فَيُسَرِّبُهُنَّ إِلَىَّ فَيَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي. 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 Messenger (ﷺ) 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.) (Fath-ul-Bari page 143, Vol.13) Sahih al-Bukhari 6130
Traditionalists do nopt appreciate people messing with the Sunnah, particularly when it concerns 17 canonical hadith with the highest levels of reliability. So they will defend Aisha's Age as 6 (or 7) at nikkah and 9 at consummation.
Lol amazing how when debating Christians he is ready to throw Hadith under the bus. But when he attacks and goes crazy agains Mufti Abu Layth for rejecting certain Hadith. Why is he using it was a different time and place as a defence for marrying a 6 year old? I thought the prophet was morally perfect for all people across all time.
why did your ancestors and everybody elses ancestors marry 9 year old then retard. this is not morality this is social norms. morals dont go into age it goes into social norns
My God! That was so fluid and clear as explanation. This question is posed by Christians every time, especially when they're stuck and have no more arguments to defend their belief. The Cheick did really good here Wallah 👏
You defend a 50 year old man having sexual relations with a 9 year old. You are sick in the head.
What was the age of Aisha (Aysha or Ayesha) at the time her alleged marriage(assuming she was married) to Islamic Apostle Mohammad?
Although many Moslem scholars insist that Mohammad was single and lifelonng celibate, according to some jurists, his alleged youngest wife is Aisha (Aysha or Ayesha), the daughter of his closest companion. Her age at the time of marriage is uncertain. According to some fabricated narrations, she was 9 years old. However, according to alternative methods of calculating her age, if the woman Aisha existed, she could have been at least 18 years old. What is certain is that he did reach her puberty.
Why was there confusion about this age narration?
Most of the Hadith narrations mentioning her age was nine are reported through Hisham ibn Urwa while living in Iraq, where Hisham ibn Urwa is reported to have relocated after living in Madinah for seventy-one years. It is reported in one of the most well known books on the life and reliability of the narrators of the traditions ascribed to the Muhammad reports that Yaqub ibn Shaibah said, “narratives reported by Hisham are reliable except those that are reported through the people of Iraq”. It further states that Malik ibn Anas objected on those narratives of Hisham, which were reported through people of Iraq. Another book on the narrators of the traditions of the Muhammad reports that when he was old, Hisham’s memory suffered quite badly. We find evidence in both Hadith books and history books that indicates Aisha must have been much older than nine when she got married:
According to a hadith in Bukhari and Muslim, Aisha is said to have joined Muhammad on the raid that culminated in the Battle of Badr, in 624 CE. However, because no one below the age of fifteen was allowed to accompany raiding parties, Aisha should have been at least fifteen in 624 CE and thus at least thirteen when she was married following the Hijra in 622 CE.
In Prophet Muhammad's life, one of the most debatable topics was that of the age of his wife Aisha when the two became married. Her alleged young age has been used in smear campaigns against the Prophet, but Arab historians insist that Aisha, the daughter of Abu Bakr, was a woman of nineteen years at the time of her marriage. Numerous historical incidents point to the simple fact. It was common in Old Arabic to use abbreviations, such as six for sixteen and nine for nineteen, much like the way Old English method of saying one and twenty to mean twenty-one. Another critical piece of information historians cite is that the age difference between Aisha and her sister Asma was 10 years. According to this, Aisha’s year of birth was 605 (595+10=605) and her age at the time of the Hijra was 17 (27-10=17). Since her marriage took place seven or eight months after the Hijra, or just after the Battle of Badr, this means Aisha was 17 or 18 years old at that time.
Ibn Hisham’s version of Ibn Ishaq’s Sirat Rashul Allah, the earliest surviving biography of Muhammad, records Aisha as having converted to Islam before Umar ibn al-Khattab, during the first few years of Islam around 610 CE. In order to accept Islam she must have been walking and talking, hence at least three years of age, which would make her at least fifteen in 622 CE.
Tabari reports that Abu Bakr wished to spare Aisha the discomforts of a journey to Ethiopia soon after 615 CE, and brought forward her consultation of marriage to Mut`am’s son. Some say she was already married to her cousin and some say she had a child with him as she was famously known to have a son and was nick named umm abdullah (mother of abdullah) , however some say she adopted that boy as her son 10 years before her marriage with the prophet. Mut`am refused to keep Aisha as his wife, because Abu Bakr had converted to Islam, but if Aisha was already of marriageable age in 615 CE, she must have been older than nine in 622 CE.
Tabari also reports that Abu Bakr’s four children were all born during the Jahiliyyah (Pre-Islam Period), which has ended in 610 CE, making Aisha at least twelve in 622 CE.
According to Ibn Hajar, Fatima was five years older than Aisha. Fatima is reported to have been born when Muhammad was thirty-five years old, meaning Aisha was born when he was forty years old, and thus twelve when Muhammad married at fifty-two.
According to the generally accepted tradition, Aisha was born about eight years before Hijrah (Migration to Medina). However, according to another narrative in Bukhari (Kitaab al-Tafseer) Aisha is reported to have said that at the time Surah Al-Qamar, the 54th chapter of the Qur’an , was revealed, “I was a young maiden”. The 54th Surah of the Qur’an was revealed nine years before Hijrah. According to this tradition, Aisha had not only been born before the revelation of the referred Surah, but was actually a young maiden, which generally means a female teenager, not even only an infant at that time. So if this age is assumed to be 7 to 14 years, then her age at the time of marriage would be 14 to 21 or even 28.
The fake narration about Aisha was added to Islamic books by some disgruntled monks who were upset with Mohamed, because he was single and virgin till his death, but someone fabricated hundreds of lies in order to create a bizarre number like 12 wives, taking inspiration from Jesus 12 companions.

ASHIA WAS BETWEEN 19 TO 25 WHEN SHE MARRIED MUHAMMAD SAW
I personally don’t believe the prophet ﷺ married sayyida Aisha at the age of 6 but even if we assume he did, a 9 year old 1400 years ago is the polar opposite of a 9 year old today. We can only picture a 9 year old from the lens of the 21st century who behave much younger than they actually are - (this applies to everyone not just children sadly)
Women (& men) 1400 years ago were precocious & matured way quicker than children today. Also, the average life expectancy has shot up since the time of the prophet ﷺ due to our understanding of science, diseases, medicine etc. Women on average go through puberty a couple years before men also.
Another point that wasn’t mentioned in the video is that the prophet ﷺ marriage to sayyida Aisha was something that was revealed to him in 2 separate dreams before the marriage took place & the proof for this can be found in l authentic Hadiths which in both Sahih Bukhari & Muslim.
Shaykh Hamza Yusuf relates a story in which a woman told him that she was having a very hard time overcoming the age of Sayyida Aisha at the time of marriage. He gave her a general answer just like Shaykh Asrar Rashid did in this video & then she left. Around a week later in Madinah she approached the Shaykh again with tears in her eyes. He asked her what was wrong & she said that she felt so at ease after feeling troubled for so long. She said that since they first met she had a dream in which the prophet ﷺ explained why the marriage took place. He ﷺ explained that Sayyiduna Abu Bakrs maqam with Allah was already so high that becoming the father in law of the prophet ﷺ increased his maqam even more.
Another thing to note is that nobody at the time apposed the marriage & nobody historically apposed it either up until the last couple centuries.
& Allah knows best
o
Sheikh i want see clear debate with the christian prince sheikh because they are keeping attacking beloved prophet muhammad(saw)
Shaykh Asrar is wrong not to believe that Ayesha (ra) was 9 years old at time of consummation
At about 1:03 it is claimed that Child-Marriage is supposedly prohibited in the Quran. But Q65:4 is mentioned by the Asharite creed's website and many other fatwas as legitimizing child-marriage. So the Quran allows child-marriage. Guardians can agree a betrothal-nikkah if the girl is too young for consent (Like Abu Bakr did for 6 year old Aisha) and from age of puberty (minimum 8 years and 9 months) girls can consent themselves to marriage and intercourse. If a girl is betrothed she gets the "Option of Puberty" which means she can rescind the marriage when she attains maturity. However, intercourse can precede Option of Puberty.
@rihannaa Thanks for us to agree on the presentation being dishonest.
Unfortunately I do not share your interpretation on consummation.
All madhabs indicate that child-marriage has to have a reason, but poverty of the uardian can be a valid reason (as can be many other reasons). So the required benefit is too easily claimed.
The "Age of Pubery" being 9 means that the girl has to be asked from the age of 9 if she wants to get married, it does not mean that a bride has to give consent to intercourse. Under the age of 9 a girl has no right of consent or withholding consent.
Baugh's "Minor Marriage in Early Islamic Law" clearly states that the legal language changes if the girl is a minor and muftis use the term "husband performed intercourse on her". The Assembly of Muslim Jurists in America (AMJA who publish fatwas on amjaonline ) have a fatwa called marying prepubescnet girls which uses the term "made to have sex" if the girl is too young to have consent and clearly lets intercourse precede "Option of Puberty" so consummation doubtlessly precedes adulthood.
Bin Baz (grand mufti KSA 1993-1999) has a fatwa where he specifically indicates that the guardian consults the mother and other female relaives to help the guardian decide whether a girl is "ready for intercourse".
@rihannaa Expecting a girl of 9 or younger to stand up for her rights is unfair on a young girl.
There is also the point that girlsnotbrides directly links poverty to child marriage and in "An Islamic human rights perspective on early and forced marriages " also notes the practice not necessarily is Islamic, but it is allowed in all 4 madhabs in Islam.
So, is Islam to blame or partially to blame for legalizing the practice and providing Muhammed as an example?
Of course Islam is. It is no coincidence that Niger is the worst country in the world for child-marriage.
@@ohana_is_family quran doesnt allow it. thats your interpretation. the madhabs do not allow it thats your interpretation of the madhab
@@jj-yi1ne It is simply not true that any madhab prohibits it. girlsnotbrides (UN organization started by bishop Tutu) reports this on Islam and child-marriage & Option of Puberty

So minor marriage still happens and is still allowed.
If you claim it is supposedly prohibited: show clear evidence.
Aqd nikah is allowed between two parties at any age. Sexual intercourse is only allowed between sane, intellectually sound, physically mature individuals.
It is NOT the fault of imam Bukhari if you guys who Dio the printing of hadith books & print errors the age of Aisha when she was engaged to Muhammad saw was 19 NOT 9, She was between 19 to 25 when she married Muhammad saw
Please stop blaming imam bukhari for mistakes by others who have done printing errors. Of hadith books
1:54 your a liar
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ قَالَتْ كُنْتُ أَلْعَبُ بِالْبَنَاتِ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَكَانَ لِي صَوَاحِبُ يَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي، فَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا دَخَلَ يَتَقَمَّعْنَ مِنْهُ، فَيُسَرِّبُهُنَّ إِلَىَّ فَيَلْعَبْنَ مَعِي.
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 Messenger (ﷺ) 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.) (Fath-ul-Bari page 143, Vol.13)
Sahih al-Bukhari 6130
He salallahualaihi wasallam used to go to his best friend - Abu Bakr's (radiAllahu anhu) house. Aisha was his daughter.
Traditionalists do nopt appreciate people messing with the Sunnah, particularly when it concerns 17 canonical hadith with the highest levels of reliability. So they will defend Aisha's Age as 6 (or 7) at nikkah and 9 at consummation.
traditionalists dont say any of that. christians say that because they love child marriage
"The minimum age for a girl to be married is three years and one day. she does not have to repudiate."
(Mishnah Niddah 5:4)
Lol amazing how when debating Christians he is ready to throw Hadith under the bus. But when he attacks and goes crazy agains Mufti Abu Layth for rejecting certain Hadith. Why is he using it was a different time and place as a defence for marrying a 6 year old? I thought the prophet was morally perfect for all people across all time.
The Prophet (pbuh) is perfect for all time but we aren't.
why did your ancestors and everybody elses ancestors marry 9 year old then retard. this is not morality this is social norms. morals dont go into age it goes into social norns
