Hey, why not marry a nine-year-old girl if one is a devout Muslim? The Muslim prophet Mohammad ("peace" be upon his name) did. Mohammad was engaged to a girl when she was six-years-old and consumated the marriage when she turned nine. This Muslim husband was just following in the footsteps of Mohammad.

Sure, the guy could have just raped, beaten the girl or just divorced her on the spot. (That's OK according to Mohammad. So is stoning to death a woman suspected of not being a virgin or adulteress.) But, noooo, he felt it was his husbandly duty to teach his uncooperative wife a lesson by disfiguring her for life. We shouldn't pass judgement on other people's customs--NOT!

And this is the religion/culture that wants to implement worldwide Sharia (barbaric, 7th Century Islamic laws) via bloody, violent jihad. Don't let Muslim LIES (which are also OK if told to non-Muslims according to Mohammad) regarding this incident and other evil displays of "diversity" fool you into thinking that these are just "isolated" acts...

In most Muslim societies, women who are raped are often killed by their own male family members. (If they aren't stoned for adultery due to a woman's testimony being suspect or half that of a man's testimony--plus there must be at least three witnesses to the violation!!!) Rape, pregnancy, and suspicion of pre-marital sex are grounds for murdering a woman in that culture. It's called "honor killing" and it is still going on because that part of the world is chock full of ignorant barbaric "customs" that even the few sane, logical Muslims find appalling.

As the article states, not legally. Even under the Islamic "law", I don't think one is supposed to (try to) have sexual relations with such a young bride. I think even the old pedophile, Mohammed himself, waited a few years after marrying a 9 year old before taking her to his bed.
