Saudi Marriage Officiant: It Is Allowed to Marry a Girl at the Age of One
MEMRI TV ^ | June 24, 2008

Dr. Ahmad Al-Mub'i, a Saudi Marriage Officiant: It Is Allowed to Marry a Girl at the Age of One, If Sex Is postponed. The Prophet Muhammad, Whose Model We Follow, Married 'Aisha When She Was Six and Had Sex with Her When She Was Nine

Following are excerpts from an interview with Dr. Ahmad Al-Mu'bi, a Saudi marriage officiant, which aired on LBC TV on June 19, 2008:

Dr. Ahmad Al-Mu'bi: Marriage is actually two things: First we are talking about the marriage contract itself. This is one thing, while consummating the marriage – having sex with the wife for the first time – is another thing. There is no minimal age for entering marriage. You can have a marriage contract even with a one-year-old girl, not to mention a girl of nine, seven, or eight. This is merely a contract [indicating] consent. The guardian in such a case must be the father, because the father's opinion is obligatory. Thus, the girl becomes a wife... But is the girl ready for sex or not? What is the appropriate age for having sex for the first time? This varies according to environment and traditions. In Yemen, girls are married off at nine, ten, eleven, eight, or thirteen, while in other countries, they are married off at 16. Some countries have legislated laws forbidding having sex before the girl is eighteen.

[...]

The Prophet Muhammad is the model we follow. He took 'Aisha to be his wife when she was six, but he had sex with her only when she was nine.

Interviewer: When she was six...

Dr. Ahmad Al-Mu'bi: He married her at the age of six, and he consummated the marriage, by having sex with her for the first time, when she was nine. We consider the Prophet Muhammad to be our model.

Interviewer: My question to you is whether the marriage of a 12-year-old boy with an 11-year-old girl is a logical marriage, which is permitted by Islamic law.

Dr. Ahmad Al-Mu'bi: If the guardian is the father... There are two different types of guardianship. If the guardian is the father, and he marries his daughter off to a man of appropriate standing, the marriage is obviously valid.

[...]

People find themselves in all kinds of circumstances. Take, for example, a man who has two, three, or four daughters. He does not have any wives, but he needs to go on a trip. Isn't it better to marry his daughter to a man, who will protect and sustain her, and when she reaches the proper age, he will have sex with her? Who says all men are ferocious wolves?

Suddenly, relations with a goat, sheep or camel seem highly civilized by comparison.

Islam is a false, evil cult with the goal of world domination.

Muslims want to make the world’s citizens submit to Islam’s sick, evil, freedom denying, totalitarian doctrines.

Muhammad , the prophet of Islam was a terrorist.

http://www.faithfreedom.org/

We came to see that Islam is a hoax, an imperialistic ideology, disguised as religion, invented by a narcissist for his own personal gains. We found out that Muhammad was a conman, a ventriloquist who projected his own words into his imaginary dummy deity to fool the gullible. With a promise of a carnal and orgiastic paradise (just for men) and threat of hell he goaded his foolhardy followers to raid and slay innocent people under pretext that they were infidels. He and his merry band of terrorists looted villages and cities, raped the women, and enslaved all who were not killed outright. To this day, Muslim jihadis are following the footsteps of their prophet who bragged, “I have been made victorious with terror” . No other cause is responsible for more deaths than Islam. Our goal is to expose this religion of terror and warn of its danger. We also want to help Muslims see the absurdity of it, end their “us” vs. “them” ethos and embrace the human race in amity. No one is their enemy; it is they who are the enemy to everyone else. We strive for the unity of mankind through the elimination of Islam, the most insidious doctrine of hate. Humanity is one. Let not charlatans like Hitler and Muhammad divide us with their big lies.

Islam can’t be reformed, but it can be eradicated. It can’t be molded, but it can be smashed. It is rigid, but brittle. That is why Muslims can’t tolerate criticism of it. To eradicate Islam, all we have to do is tell the truth. It’s that simple. This was not possible before, but with the help of the Internet, it is now. The insanity of this creed is so glaringly obvious, it boggles the mind. All it takes to see that is to read the Qur’an.

The truth about Islam is out. It’s here on this site. With truth and reason alone we can demolish this tall tower of lies. If you help spread the truth we can bring this house of cards down sooner than anyone can imagine.

Unless we do something about it.

These are kids (females) robbed of everything including their childhood.

Perverted bastards, that’s what they are. They can try to justify any way they want but they’re still perverted bastards and they better not start it here.

We may have a lot of sickos but we also have a lot of mean people who don’t take this crap.

You know what’s so sad? You can tell those people the truth til you’re blue in the face, and guess what? THEY DON’T CARE! They don’t care that mohammed was a terrorist and a pedophile. It just doesn’t matter to them. So, now what? You’ve got to have someone who cares to change. There is NO hope for islam - it’s just pure evil.

It was fairly common in traditional societies for families to contract marriages for their children at a young age. It was done in the west among royalty and nobility in order to cement alliances or join properties.

BUT it was also traditional for them to continue living apart, with their parents, after such ceremonies, until they were old enough to consummate the marriage. Normally that would not be before a girl had menstruated, maybe around 12 at the youngest, but usually older than that.

The sick thing about Ayesha is not the marriage at 6, which was probably intended to cement tribal alliances, but the fact that she apparently lived with Muhammed and he couldn’t wait until she was older than 9. It is VERY unlikely that she was properly of age that young. But Muslims consider the whole story very admirable and romantic.

And, of course, the other sick thing is that Muhammed is the ideal model for everyone to follow, as this fellow makes cldear. He was not only a pederast, but a rapist, a murderer, an enslaver, and an oath breaker, among his other less than endearing habits.

Gosh. Someone who is horny enough to marry a one-year old will wait until she’s 9?

Remarkable self-restraint these mohammedans have...

Sir Charles Napier, the British General, had the right way to celebrate diversity and multiculturalism in these sorts of situations. He handled the Indian tradition of Suttee (burning widows on their husbands funeral pyres)thusly :

“You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: When men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks, and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”

Personally, I’d prefer to hang them by the feet or unmentionables and let them whither on the vine, but the British have their way and I have mine.
