Volume 7, Book 62, Number 64: Sahih Bukhari 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).
The Bible - Mohammed lived after Jesus. The chapters of the Old Testament were written over a thousand years before Jesus was born. The Bible was written several centuries before the Quran. Read more: wiki.answers.com...
The International Center for Research on Women now estimates that there are 51 million child brides now living on planet earth and almost all in Muslim countries.
Twenty-nine percent of these child brides are regularly beaten and molested by their Husbands in Egypt ; twenty six percent receive similar abuse in Jordan .
Every year, three million Muslim girls are subjected to genital mutilation, according to UNICEF. This practice has not been outlawed in many parts of America .
The Islamic practice of pedophilia dates back to the prophet Muhammad, who amassed Eleven wives and many concubines after the death of his first wife Khadijah in 619 A.D.
"If the religion allows it, then we can't legislate against it,"
Muslim Malays make up about 60 percent of the country's 28 million population and on certain issues, including family law, they are subject to Islamic justice.

Removing the Muslim part, and keeping religion would be a whole lot fairer. From all the catholic priest child rape cover-ups to youth ministers etc. etc... The institutions in general seem to be littered with them in.
Publicly reported convictions going back 17 years reveals that:
* 75 clergymen have been convicted of, or pleaded guilty to criminal child molestation charges since the Gilbert Authe case in Louisiana in 1985.
* Half of these (38) were Roman Catholic priests, the rest Methodists, Pentecostals, Baptist Ministers, Episcopal priests, etc.
* Many of the sentence were 10 years or more ranging from 30 days to life in prison.
* Although there are more and more as the years go by the disgusting problem still rears it's ugly head and there are more than ever of the clergy molesting children and particularly women.
* A spokesperson for the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops said there was no national system of tracking the number of priests convicted of child molestation.
* The Catholics have be the center of focus in the U.S. and Canada and in the media, but a great many ministers from other denominations have been convicted. 10 Baptist minister, 3 Pentecostals, 5 Methodists, and two Episcopal priests convicted or pleading guilty to child sexual abuse since 1985.

Seems your issue is the fact that the muslims do this openly whereas other religions tend to hide the fact..
I'll stick with open religion and hope they change their ways eventually..
Much better that the devious catholics etc that hide behind an army of lawyers larger than any know company ever had..
75 priest's in 17 YEARS HAVE BEEN CONVICTED....
Look's to me some people would rather blame 75 people for the mass's.
As where the muslim religion openly does it so that makes it ok...
it is in there bible that is is ok....
It will not change...
to embrace the muslim religion is the same as saying i love pedophiles or that is at least ok.

This is an absolute disgrace. How can anybody say Mohamed was any sort of prophet? I don't have to say what he was the OP did it already...... Well done! I challenge any Muslim to defend this & say it is right!
But wait for it we will get either "It's the interpretation" thing or "it was the norm at that time but now it is not done" thing or "it is Jewish Propaganda thing" or straight out it didn't happen!. Guess what, those answers are not acceptable to defend this. How can someone who did this be respected? They are scum for molesting little girls!. Truth it it was wrong then & is still wrong now!.
Sort of shows you ignorance
just NOW hearing what they say??
Maybe you need to look at past history and the average life expectancy back then to understand why, in bygone days, people married earlier than they do now..
You just tried to defend a Pedophile with the life expectancy & bygone day rubbish!!!! What a lame excuse there is no excuse ever to molest a child no matter what century you are in! Yet you tried to defend this Hmmmmmmmmmm

not at 9 that's being a pedophile! how can this defended even centuries ago. that's wrong even if you only live to be 40 or younger! ! Even more shocking is that it still happens today! The OP has provided sources. I suppose you agree with this as well! Oh that's right, no one else is entitled to an opinion without being called ignorant!
In 500 BC the average life expectancy was about 20 years. In 400 AD it was 35 years.
ignorance??
ignorance??
