Before reading this, it's important to realise that Mohammed wasn't the only "prophet" to practice paedophillia. After one of his numerous slaughtering adventures, Moses instructed his soldiers to murder every adult, and every male child, and every female child who wasn't a virgin, but to spare the little virgin girls so they could be captured and used for sex.

In the book, 'Cradle of Erotica' by Edwardes, Allen & Masters, Moses is reported to have told his men that is is wrong to have sex with a child under the age of three.

And King David, when he was on his death bed, was "ministered unto" by a pretty little pubescent child whom his men had kidnapped especially to revive his flagging libido. King David did everything he could to get an erection but Viagra was in short supply due to the so-called "wise men" bringing incense, frankinsense and Myrrh instead, fucking morons!, so he was unable to rise to the occasion, despite the "ministering' of this sad child.

Most of God's chosen patriarchs were paedophiles and/or perverts. Abraham, the founder of the Jewish faith, was in fact a pimp. He earned a fabulous living by forcing his half-sister, Sarah, into prostitution, and God rewarded Abraham with immense wealth.

So with those details in mind, read about Mohammed's child bride.

AISHA – MUHAMMAD'S BABY FUCK-BUDDY

Aisha was the most controversial of all of Muhammad’s wives. Aisha was 6 at the time of her betrothal. She married Muhammad at 9 and at that time the marriage was consummated. This act and the fact its consequences are still being widely experienced today, is something readers may care to judge for themselves.

"Muhammad taught that a girl is considered an adult following her first menstrual cycle. Muhammad also taught that his followers were to follow in his ‘sunnah’ or lifestyle, to imitate him.

Today many female children in the Middle East are being married as young as 9 to men old enough to be their grandfathers." [3]

Despite Muhammad’s supreme authority, some Muslim’s questioned the matter of Aisha’s age at the time of the betrothal, and possibly even questioned the age of marriage and consummation.

FROM THE HADITH OF SAHIH BUKHARI

I have used Bukhari's Hadith, translated into English by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan, at the Islamic University in Medina. Bukhari's Hadith is considered authentic by the majority of Sunni Islamic scholars. It is second to the Quran in terms of importance. The central figure to approve and sign the translation is Dr. Amin Al-Masri, Ph.D. Cambridge University. He is the Advisor and Head of the Sharia Dept., at the College of Sharia and Islamic Studies in Mecca.

From Bukhari Vol. 7, #65:
"Narrated Aisha: that the prophet wrote the marriage contract with her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old. Hisham said: "I have been informed that Aisha remained with the prophet for nine years (i.e. till his death).

Bukhari Vol. 7, #88:
"Narrated Urwa: "The prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)."" Bukhari Vol. 5, #234 says:
"Narrated Aisha: The prophet engaged me when I was a girl of six. We went to Medina and stayed at the home of Harith Kharzraj. 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 all right, 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 messenger 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."

Sahih Bukhari, Book 73:
Volume 8, Book 73, Number 151:
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 Apostle 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.) (Fateh-al-Bari page 143, Vol.13)

FROM THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF ISLAM, under "Aisha". (pub. by E.J. Brill).
"Some time after the death of Khadija, Khawla suggested to Muhammad that he should marry either Aisha, the 6 year old daughter of his chief follower, or Sawda Zama, a widow of about 30, who had gone as a Muslim to Abyssinia and whose husband had died there. Muhammad is said to have asked her to arrange for him to marry both. It had already been agreed that Aisha should marry Djubayr Mutim, whose father, though still pagan, was friendly to the Muslims. By common consent, however, this agreement was set aside, and Muhammad was betrothed to Aisha.... The marriage was not consummated until some months after the Hidjra, (in April 623, 624). Aisha went to live in an apartment in Muhammad's house, later the mosque of Median. She cannot have been more than ten years old at the time and took her toys to her new home."

From the Muslim book "WOMEN IN ISLAM" by Said Abjullah Seif-Al-Hatimy, published by Islamic Publications in Lahore Pakistan:

"...(Aisha) She was the youngest of his wives. It is said that she was nine years of age when he married her." Out of all of Muhammad’s wives none had been virgins, until Aisha, and she remained the only virgin he married, she was his favourite, sexually and emotionally. Nothing in the Qur’an or Hadith’s suggests otherwise. Even before Aisha was 6 years old, Muhammad was dreaming of her:

Sahih Bukhari, Book 62,
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 15:
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said (to me), "You have been shown to me twice in (my) dreams. A man was carrying you in a silken cloth and said to me, 'This is your wife.' I uncovered it; and behold, it was you. I said to myself, 'If this dream is from Allah, He will cause it to come true.' "

Defenders of Muhammad’s marriage to Aisha generally suggest the following reasons for Muhammad’s actions:

1. To reinforce the friendly relations existing with Abu Bakr.
2. To educate and train Aisha so she may serve the purposes of Islam.
3. To teach her to utilise her capabilities for the sake of Islam.

One may be forgiven for thinking all of the above to be absurd as Aisha was 6 years old when Muhammad was betrothed to her. The notion that the marriage was to reinforce the relations with Abu Bakr is not realistic or believable, but perpetuated by almost every Islamic site on the internet as well as in books. Is it simply a suggestion put forward by Muslims to mask that what Muhammad did was wrong?

The evidence is clear. Muhammad and Abu Bakr were already the very best of friends, they were not rivals in need of a form of alliance. There are 2 conflicting stories about how Muhammad made the decision to marry Aisha;

1. That it was suggested to him by Khawlah, wife of Uthman, who was in Mecca.
2. That Muhammad simply wanted a beautiful, young, virgin, regardless of what her father, Abu Bakr, thought.

Here is the quote from Tabari[4], volume 9, page 129.
"The Reason Why the Messenger of God Asked for the Hands of Both Aisha and Sawdah in Marriage... ...When Khadijah died, Khawlah, wife of Uthman, who was in Mecca, said (to the Messenger of God), "O Messenger of God, will you not marry?" He replied, "Whom"?" "A maiden [virgin]", she said, if you like, or a non-maiden." He replied, "Who is the maiden?" "The daughter of the dearest creature of God to you," she answered, "Aisha bint Abi Bakr.".....

She went to Abu Bakr's house, where she found Umm Ruman, mother of Aisha and said, "O Umm Ruman, what a good thing and a blessing has God brought to you!" She said, "What is that?" Khawlah replied, "The Messenger of God has sent me to ask for Aisha's hand in marriage on his behalf."

The story goes on to describe how Abu Bakr then gave his daughter in marriage [equal to betrothal] when she was 6.

Note that there is nothing at all about "cementing ties", between Abu Bakr and Muhammad. Instead, all we see is a match maker hooking up Muhammad with Aisha. Anyone familiar with Abu Bakr knows that his relationship to Muhammad needed no cementing. He put his life on the line for Muhammad many times and followed him through thick and thin.[5]

It should also be noted that marriage to a woman already offered to another was illegal. Aisha, was clearly already set to marry Djubayr Mutim.

Malik’s Muwatta
Book 28, Number 28.1.1:
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Yahya ibn Habban from al-Araj from Abu Hurayra that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, "Do not ask for a woman in marriage when another muslim has already done so."

Muhammad, now already renowned for setting aside the revelations previously given to him by Allah, created precedents by way of his ‘Revelations’ from Allah, changed yet another Qur’an rule that one shall not marry the daughter of a Brother. He also set aside the protest from Aisha’s father, Abu Bakr, who was already Muhammad’s greatest friend and pronounced brother to Muhammad, by Muhammad.

Sahih Bukhari, Book 62,
Volume 7, Book 62, Number 18:
Narrated 'Ursa:
The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."

Another act instituted by Muhammad was the acceptance of a woman for marriage. If a woman remained silent, then she was in acceptance of the marriage. Hardly fair for an innocent girl of 6 to have understood what was going on around her.

Sahih Muslim, Book 8:
Book 008, Number 3307:
Ibn Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) reported Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: A woman who has been previously married (Thayyib) has more right to her person than her guardian. And a virgin should also be consulted, and her silence implies her consent.

Book 008, Number 3308:
Sufyan reported on the basis of the same chain of transmitters (and the words are): A woman who has been previously married (Thayyib) has more right to her person than her guardian; and a virgin's father must ask her consent from her, her consent being her silence, At times he said: Her silence is her affirmation. It is has been alleged that Muhammad had particular kinds of ‘Revelations’ when it suited him, even Aisha, his favourite wife questioned him on the convenience of his ‘Revelations’ and at the ease at which they came when he found himself in the difficult situation of trying to persuade others to do his bidding. It may be alleged Muhammad repeatedly had ‘revelations’ to justify ‘modifying’ the rules of the Qur’an to suit his own desires, carnal and otherwise.

Muhammad claimed to be the ‘Prophet’ from Allah, sent to tell people that there is one God and that Muhammad is his messenger sent to warn people of the Judgement Day and to remind them of Allah’s goodness.

Sahih Bukhari, Book 60,
Volume 6, Book 60, Number 311:
Narrated Aisha:
………. I said (to the Prophet), "I feel that your Lord hastens in fulfilling your wishes and desires."

Although still relatively young, even at the time of Muhammad’s death, Aisha seems to have been an intelligent girl whose close personal observations led her to question the timing of Muhammad’s ‘revelations’ with Muhammad’s need to change rules here and there.

Regardless of the time in history, many, this writer included, find it impossible to justify sex with children, yet for Muslims, Muhammad established the precedent, and hence right, for Muslim men to have the option of having sex with little girls, by taking them as wives.

Many, this writer included, would argue such practices are socially, morally, psychologically, physically and medically inappropriate.

The evidence is that psychological depression and emotional damage to children is irreversible. You can read more about the Medical effects on Young Woman and their babies at,

Muhammad claimed he was a ‘Messenger from God’ (Allah), but what if Muhammad was simply an intelligent and manipulative leader who used the relatively primitive beliefs of his people to advantage in achieving his own ends?

While it has been argued Muhammad had many revelations that were strictly related to his personal interests, he also quite apparently had many that were arguably not related to his own desires, but it is unclear as to whether he ever had a revelation from Allah that actually prevented him from doing something he wanted to do.

Whether or not Muhammad was the ‘Messenger from God’, one issue is arguably clear, ultimately, Muhammad set himself up as the one all Muslims were to imitate. To lead a perfect life, you must live in every way as Muhammad did. Given that, it is more than fair to examine Muhammad’s life to see how much of the way he lived is relevant, excusable or perhaps justifiable, in the 21st century?

Is the expectation on all Muslims to live as Muhammad did perhaps a legacy not even in the interests of many Muslims, women in particular, and certainly not in the interests of non-Muslims?

The legacy of the life of Muhammad and the potential ramifications of that legacy is something we need to study. Our future may depend heavily on such knowledge.
