No. He was in his 50s. She was 6 or so. But just as the Quran, history that far back is a guessing game sometimes. There isnt even any solid proof that there WAS a muhammed. But nontheless the Quran says that a woman can have sex once she menstrates and back then going through this around the age of 10 would be normal.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aisha%27s_age_at_marriage
Go to this website if you want a neutral side
Though you got to think the peodophilya in that time probably didn't exist as the term today (if you think... not a long time ago with 6 years of age in history the kids would be working and have big responsabilities... culture has changed so maturity comes later... you got to think that Abu Bakr was the best friend of the Prophet Mohammad and that he was Aisha's father (and maybe he didn't want Aisha marrying anyone that wasn't as pious as the prophet)... so now that you know all this think for yourself...
And may God guide you to the truth

Well, depending on who you ask
He was somewhere between age 45 and 55
And she was, by her own writings 6 at the time of marriage and 9 at the time of consumation.
Some claim she was as old as 14 when they consumated
but HER writings (which also PRAISE Muhammad) say she was 9!
So, she either LIES about her age (yes, all women are younger than they claim to be) and lies abut Muhammad or she tells the truth.
YOu choose.

Of course!
Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64
Narrated 'Aisha:
that the Prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old, and then she remained with him for nine years (i.e., till his death).

He was in his 50's. And age of Aisha is still disputed.
