Question

was mohomed a pedo? he had to be because he shagged a 9 year old girl right?
why defend pedo's as Allah's prophets?

Answer 1

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) married ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) after he married Sawdah bint Zam’ah (may Allaah be pleased with her). She – ‘Aa’ishah – was the only virgin whom he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) married. And he consummated the marriage with her when she was nine years old.

Among her virtues was the fact that the Revelation did not descend when he under one cover with any of his wives other than her. She was one of the dearest of all people to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him), and news of her innocence was revealed from above the seven heavens. She was one of the most knowledgeable of his wives, and one of the most knowledgeable women of the ummah as a whole. The senior companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to refer to her opinion and consult her.

With regard to the story of her marriage, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had grieved over the death of the Mother of the Believers Khadeejah, who had supported him and stood by his side, and he called the year in which she died The Year of Sorrow. Then he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) married Sawdah, who was an older woman and was not very beautiful; rather he married her to console her after her husband had died and she stayed among mushrik people. Four years later the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) married ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her), and he was over fifty. Perhaps the reasons for the marriage were as follows:

1 – He saw a dream about marrying her. It is proven in al-Bukhaari from the hadeeth of ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to her: “You were shown to me twice in a dream. I saw that you were wrapped in a piece of silk, and it was said, ‘This is your wife.’ I uncovered her and saw that it was you. I said, ‘If this is from Allaah then it will come to pass.’” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 3682). As to whether this is a prophetic vision as it appears to be, or a regular dream that may be subject to interpretation, there was a difference of opinion among the scholars, as mentioned by al-Haafiz in Fath al-Baari, 9/181.

2 – The characteristics of intelligence and smartness that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had noticed in ‘Aa’ishah even as a small child, so he wanted to marry her so that she would be more able than others to transmit reports of what he did and said. In fact, as stated above, she was a reference point for the Sahaabah (may Allaah be pleased with them) with regard to their affairs and rulings.

3 – The love of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) for her father Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him), and the persecution that Abu Bakr (may Allaah be pleased with him) had suffered for the sake of the call of truth, which he bore with patience. He was the strongest of people in faith and the most sincere in certain faith, after the Prophets.

It may be noted that among his wives were those who were young and old, the daughter of his sworn enemy, the daughter of his closest friend. One of them occupied herself with raising orphans, another distinguished herself from others by fasting and praying qiyaam a great deal… They represented all kinds of people, through whom the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was able to set out a way for the Muslims showing how to deal properly with all kinds of people. [See al-Seerah al-Nabawiyyah fi Daw’ al-Masaadir al-Asliyyah, p. 711].

With regard to the issue of her being young and your being confused about that, you should note that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) grew up in a hot country, the Arabian Peninsula. Usually in hot countries adolescence comes early and people marry early. This is how the people of Arabia were until recently. Moreover, women vary greatly in their development and their physical readiness for marriage.

If you think – may Allaah guide you – that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did not marry any virgin other than ‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her), and that all his other wives had been previously married, this will refute the notion spread by many hostile sources, that the basic motive behind the Prophet’s marriages was physical desire and enjoyment of women, because if that was his intention he would have chosen only those who were virgins and beautiful etc.

Such slanders against the Prophet of Mercy (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) by kaafirs and others of their ilk, are indicative of their inability to find fault with the law and religion that he brought from Allaah, so they try to find ways to criticize Islam with regard to issues that are not related to sharee’ah.

And Allaah is the Source of strength. May Allaah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and his family and companions.

Answer 2

Aisha before she married Mohamed SAW was engaged to a man called Gobair bin Al Mot'em bin Al Adi which means that she was getting married getting married
so instead of marrying that Gobair she married the prophet SAW and she was happy with that marriage
btw it was a normal thing in Arabia at that time that girls marry so young especially when the parents have too many children

Answer 5

this is a lie that there is no proof for it. not all Muslims believe in what bukhari and muslim wrote in there books, and believe me so many Muslims do not even read these huge books, several volumes. even what salman roshdy said, which enraged million of Muslims, is written in very ancient books like tabari. satanic verses them selves are hadith that ibn taimeya and Muhammad ibn Abdul believe in. complete non sense.

Answer 6

We should all face the music eventually: Mohammad is the poster child for Islamic correctness-what you see is what you get. Mohammad stole, murdered and raped-even children. Why would you expect any different form his followers? What Mohammad acted out in life is the epitome of Islamic character in devout Muslim men.

Answer 7

why do people who answer the question have to so rude...you are obviously not Muslim..so why you answer question?? just so you can show stupidity, i wonder?? and if you want serious answer ..then form a question with some sense of maturity....I am offended by the way you ask the question..i know you really don't care..but I'm just voicing my opinion

Answer 8

Muslims don't know how dangerous their religion is.

From a Former Atheist, Christian forevermore.

Answer 9

what i know that he married her when she was nine but he didn't touch her till she grown up , but he married her because he wanna his best friend {her father} to be proud that his daughter married to allah's prophet muhamed , and that because *** baker al sedeek {her father} was so loyal to islam and allah and prophet muhamed ,and in this old centuries before islam known, the girls were marrying so young , and never asked if she agreed about marriage or not , but this young lady aysha was loving muhamed so much , and when he died he dead in her home on her chest.
that's all what i know about that , and i don't think that he is a pedo at all.
any way each one has his own religion , and we have to respect all the relegions.

Answer 10

Such hateful answers. People, think with your brains instead of spewing $hit.

Muhammad (pbuh) and Aisha were married, and it wasn't until years later that their marriage was comsummated. They had a love relationship, so beautiful and so strong and so profound that Aisha never spoke badly of Muhammad, not even after he passed away. How many men WISH they had such a loving relationship, where the woman NEVER EVER gossiped about you, never spoke badly of you, not even after your death? No one has that kind of relationship. Muhammad and Aisha did, theirs was profound MARITAL love.

Answer 11

no honest muslims in this world
