This is a big problem with islam. The real problem is that for Muslims to justify what prophet Muhammed has done, they are trying to convence people that marrying a 9-year old girl has nothing wrong!

I guess if it was an issue back then, there would have been outrage and there would be an explanation. God would certainly not allow an unfit man to be His messenger. Imperfect man, perhaps but if it was wrong at that time, there would be something done about it.
So I guess since it was not addressed then, can we not just trust that God knows what He's doing? We know that they married, but who's to say that they had marital relations? I don't know that prophets slept with girls. And if they did, and did not marry them first, then they would certainly be sinning wouldn't they?
If he married her to protect her, well isn't that just a nice thing to do? You may have to study the social situation of that day. I don't know all the details, but it was not a peaceful region then either.
So let the non-muslims laugh. They probably have people laughing at them too. You win hearts through conduct and peace. If they are making these comments about Islam, then their hearts are not for the religion, and you don't want them as your spiritual siblings anyway.
Let the non-muslim people say what they want to say. Muslims can decide to not play in that game.

He was married to her and only had sex with her when she hit puberty - in all respects a woman not a girl (also believed by many to be at 14 or 12 - no one is absolutely sure)
She was happy (she is one of the most influential muslims ever her legacy of stories of muhammed is one of the most improtant in Islam and she lived to an old age remembering him fondly) her father was happy the community was happy as they counted a person as being adult when reaching puberty.
Just because you arbitrarily think 16 or 18 or 21 is an age of consent does not mean your retrospective anlysis, one and a half millenia later, should carry any weight with anyone but you (remember life expectancy back then was not what it is now)
(what about a 16 yr old has not reached puberty - now would that be ok for you to have sex with them - not according to Islam - maybe ok to you though)

First off do you realize that was more than 1400 years ago? And do you realize that the Arabian peninsula is a very hot dry place?, it's basically a desert. Nine year old girls at that time and under such heat hit puberty at a very young age. A 9 year old girl back then wasn't looked at and didn't look like a 9 year old girl of the modern day. Hence, It was pretty normal. Remember that was 1400 years ago, different culture, different habits and so on. She wasn't the only 9 year old girl who was married back then.

each and every Muslim is certain to describe elegance of Islam no count number he's paid any interest or not. If we do not, we will be requested via Allah for failing in our responsibility. for sure, your non-muslim pal will ***** on the judgement day that he became continually with you yet Adia by no ability shared the staggering thing about Islam with him. hence he's not at fault. Then Allah will surely ask you. it truly is surely not forcing your beliefs on some one. it truly is sparkling from the Quran; [one million] Say: O ye that reject faith! .................[ After your preaching] [2] I worship not that which ye worship, [3] Nor will ye worship that which I worship. [4] and that i won't be able to worship that which ye were wont to worship, [5] Nor will ye worship that which I worship. [6] To you be your way, and to me, mine even if you're required to contemporary your perception in Islam in a dignified way; " Invite (people) to the way of your Lord with expertise and interesting Preaching, and argue with them interior the staggering ideas."Quran [16:one hundred twenty 5] My pricey Adia you won't be able to get away out of your responsibility. note : besides there are such a large number of issues which even Muslims do not recognize. Will you not percentage your recognize-how with us ???

I don't get it, has a Muslim come to your door and is forcing you to convert?
Get over it, while you may feel little good about yourself in your small world. A person with common knowledge about history and world religion sure can understand the answers given to you by many Muslims here.

Are you sure they are your fellow Muslims. But why throw with rocks when Christianity is sitting in the glasshouse? 0r haven't you heard about priests molesting children? Do we know he slept with her? Again Mohammed was a man, and customs were different in those times. Granted today he would be sitting in jail, but chances are Jesus would be sitting in a phsyc ward.
