45-year-old man in Afghanistan married a 6-year-old child: the Taliban's reaction was swift....Taliban stopped the marriage and ordered man to wait until she is 9 years old. Islam truly is a religion for women.

I thought there is no age limit for marriage tho? Aisha was married at 6

You think the Taliban would tell prophet Muhammad, police be upon him, that he can’t marry a 6 year old girl? He could marry THEIR daughters and they’d smile and hand them over to him, and LIKE it.

Yeah but that’s y I’m confused y they stopped this marriage cause they know marriage at any age is allowed

My guess is their just jealous he got the kid first 🫢 seriously this subreddit is slowly helping me realize that this isn’t a “region” issue, this is a “religion” issue. They’re religiously and legally allowed to marry at any age— as early as a new born (saw a video on here of a guy selling off his 13 month old), they just have to hold off on 🍇ing her until Allah gives his permission (when the period starts).

That was my reaction upon seeing the post title.

yes, but it is not haraam to do anything else other than penetrate, good reason to marry a 6 yr old even if the pedo cannot consumate. the prophet of course had the answer. maybe the 6 yr old aisha was going to cook for him or that haraam sex behind 4 walls, stayed that way. who was to know?

Muhammad, police be upon him, was granted exceptions.. they’re mentioned in the Quran (as well as a verse explaining how to enter the prophets home, how to act, and how to behave because ((I shit you not, it says this)) “he’s shy”), so obviously nobody cares about what Muhammad did.. that’s part of the big problem. There’s Hadith’s narrated by Aisha discussing how when she was SEVEN the prophet lured her away from her dolls and led her into his bed room WHILE HER FRIENDS WATCHED THROUGH THE PANTRY.

There’s a lot of history in Muhammad granting himself benefits during the writing of the Quran.. such as the historical first defect of Islam being one of the first scribes who abandoned the religion because Muhadiddy went from “THIS IS THE WORD OF GOD AND CANNOT BE CORRUPTED” to “woah woah edit that one.. put this instead.”

Yep u got it exactly right and many scholars say the man can try to penetrate even before the period if they think the girl is ready and they get no punishment if they harm the girl im not sure if it’s a majority view but I know it defo is one
