I believe that Islam is a false religion made up by a false prophet out of jealousy of the Jews. The Al Aqsa Mosque (Golden Dome) in Jerusalem sits on the site where Abraham was going to slay Isaac and where the Ark of the Covenant holding the 10 Commandments rested. This is where they say Mohammad ascended. What a coincidence! Also, they want to say Jesus is a prophet and didn't die but was taken up to Heaven. This is a lie from Satan because if you don't believe Jesus died for your sins, you will die in them. Satan is disguising himself as an angel of light.

Muslims say that because he was a prophet, he did not have to abide by all the rules like common people. So he was allowed to have more than 4 wives.
Muslims believe that once puberty is reached, you are an adult, no matter what age it happens, so they say Aisha hit puberty at 9.
I should add though that Shia Muslims believe Aisha was 17-18 when she actually married Muhammad because the date of her age in hadith put her in that age group. Sunnis say she was between 6 and 11.

Arranged marriages for political reasons were quite common back then, including in Western Europe. I believe Aisha was 11, and my understanding is that there is no proof they consumated prior to her hitting puberty, which while offensive now, was also a common time to get married in those days. I'm not saying I approve, I just saying you need to look at it in the context of the times. The really unusual thing is that his first wife was older than he, and he was in a monogamous relationship with her for decades.

i suggest you read the books about Muhammad written by Karen Armstrong, a renowned writer (she wrote "the history of God)
she explains the political and social aspects of arabia at the time of the Prophet, and she gives a very unbiased account. Please don't base ur view on unresearched, biased, and hateful assumptions abt the Prophet.

I believe it is because of the fact that they look upto Mohammed as a key figure in their religion.
When he does that, he has defeated the Muslim teachings!

Are you proud of your efforts to offend?

I believe she was 9 and they defend it by saying he did not consummate it until she was 12. Still a sick camel jockey in my opinion.

Muhammed was also a false prophet who led Arabia and much of the world astray. He also leads them to their doom on the field of Armageddon, though he watches not from his "kingdom".

I guess they just don't want to deal with the fact that their "prophet" was a pedophile...
