At what age you could marry in Britain in 18th Century? Margaret Beaufort was born into English nobility in 1443 and was married to John de la Pole at 7 years old. A 5 year old girl was married in 15th century England (political marriage) Anne DeMowbray. In the bible lady Mary allegedly married a 90 year old at the age of 12. Yitzchak (Isaak) was 40 years old when he married Rebecca (Rivkah) when she was 3 years old. Also marriage at the toddler age and even before birth was common in india and in many other countries, see arranged marriages. Ignoring all these realities and overriding them by saying, no, muslims bad, because a legitimate marriage has been performed at a young age is totally dumb and ridiculous if you had any objectivity or historical understanding nobody critiqued this consentual marriage up until 50 years ago, neither the kuffaar or the time, nor the parents, nor the society, no the lady herself, that lived up to an old age and never had anything bad to say about it.
regarding A'isha:
1) her marriage was according the norm of the society
2) this argument is an insignificant distraction, her age is neither mentioned in Qur'an nor by the prophet peace be upon him
3) her age isn't mentioned as an issue by neither his companions or even enemies till the 20th century
4) not even the enemies objected to that marriage (see presentism)
5) his wives were honored by society even post-mortem and were called the mothers of the believers
6) she was the only virgin the prophet peace be upon him married, i.e. if he only liked young wives, he wouldn't have married 10 others who weren't young, nor virgins.
7) in the bible allegedly mary married at 12 to a 90 year old and rebecca at 3 years of age to a 40 year old
Yitzchak (Isaak) was 40 years old when he married Rebecca (Rivkah) when she was 3 years old.
0) Mary was 12 year old when she birthed Jesus (catholic enyclopedia and church fathers confirm)
1) Sarah was 90 when Abraham was 100
(Genesis 17:17).
2)Abraham was 100 when Isaac was born
(Genesis 21:5).
3) Sarah died at age 127
(Genesis 23:1-2).
4) Isaac was 40 when he married Rebekah
(Genesis 25:20).
Two further facts are needed to conclude the above four facts :
Sarah was 90 when Isaac was born
(conclusion from the first 2 sentences).
Isaac was 37 when his mother Sarah died (cuz 127-90=37)
5) Abraham informed of Rebekah’s birth (Genesis 22:20-23); and Sarah’s death aged 127 (Genesis 23:1-2)
Abraham informed of Rebekah’s birth when Sarah was 127. Since Isaac was 37 at his mother’s death, he was 37 when Rebekah was born. Since Isaac was 40 when he married Rebekah, Rebekah would be 3 when the marriage took place (as 40-37=3).
Basic math.
«So they sent away Rebekah their sister and her NURSE, and Abraham’s servant and his men.»
(Genesis 24:59)
The word for “nurse” is מֵנִקְתָּ֑הּ which means “breastfeeding”. A primitive root; to suck; causatively, to give milk -- milch, nurse(-ing mother)
Rebecca was still being breastfed which proves that she was a child.
Also Genesis 24:57 uses the hebrew word “naarah” to describe her. “Naarah” means
child, little girl.
Rashi aka Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki (1040-1105) in his commentary on Genesis 25:20 confirms that Rebecca was 3. He is considered the greatest biblical exegete of Judaism. Rashi's commentary continues to be a key basis for contemporary rabbinic scholarship and interpretation.
Rabbi Bachya ben Asher (1255-1340) in his commentary on Genesis 24:67 confirms that Rebecca was 3. He is considered by Jewish scholars to be one of the most distinguished of the biblical exegetes of Spain. Islam teaches the opposite of debauchery:
The system of hijab, الحجاب
Hayaa (modesty), الحياء
Lowering the gaze, غض البصر
No ikhtilat (mixing), عدم الاختلاط
No khalwa (blameworthy seclusion), عدم الخلوة
Etiquette of gender interaction in speech (not softening the voice, no chit chat), ولا تخضعن بالقول
No point of pedophilia, even by modern standards,
