You mean physical maturity? Is that enough reason to grab such not even a teenager and have carnal knowledge of her?

Does she understand the meaning of love or marriage? Can she deliver a baby successfully? I now see clearly why vesico vaginal rectal fistula will continue to be on the rise among Muslims. I also understand that there is no age limit to marriage in Islam (ref: MURIC Director, Sunday Punch 6th March 2016).

The girl child has come to suffer in Islam. I now also understand Boko Haram abductions of young girls and other abductions of young girls in the country (see today's Sunday Punch). Also the promise of virgins in Aljana to good Muslim men (what is in Islam for females now and hereafter?)

If the French man wrote that, did he justify s..e..x.. with minors?

I'm deeply sorry for females in Islam especially the poor, illiterate ones in villages. Western education has 'librated' some, though.
See, please don't be in a hurry to comment. Jes go tru the conversations again and you will see that what you are saying is outta context. DUBAI and even the whole UAE is an Islamic state. Same with Indonesia.

As I said and will continue to say. ISLAM FORBIDS THE MARRIAGE OF MINORS. THE CRITERIA FOR MARRIAGE IN ISLAM IS MATURITY AND CONSENT.
I only quoted Montesquieu to justify that the maturity times varies as females mature at different times under different conditions. Even in the United States, the age for marriage varies.

And to the punch news you read. Hmmmmnn

It's not a new thing about the media you know lolz. . A report by Toronto-based416Labs states that New York Times portrays Islam & Muslims more negatively than it does cancer, cocain, alcohol. So, it's no big deal anymore. But if you really want to know the truth about Islam, go to the authentic source, THE QURAN AND THE AUTHENTIC HADEETH. And see why, despite the negative comments, Islam is still the fastest growing religion in the entire UK and US.

And to the female in Islam being liberated.
Pick up your history book and begin to read. Of all the Muslim women that are capable to achieve and you will see with certainty. Women like Fatima Al-Fihri (open the 1st ever university in the world), Rofaydah Al-Islamiyah (1st nurse to perform surgery in the world) and so on like that.

On the issue of Boko Haram Vis-a-vis ISIS. The whole Muslim community in Nigeria as well as the whole wide world have all condemn dia act.. Next time you log on to Twitter, check the hashTag #NotInMyName and #BokoNotHaram..

What usually makes me happy is that, the more you try to defame Islam, the faster it grows. Lolz

Pls get your fact straight.
Our women are treasures, when the are young, the serve as a shield for her parent from hell fire, as a wife, she completes the religion of her husband, and as a mother, Paradise is under her feet. That is why a whole chapter in the Quran was dedicated to them and non was dedicated to men. Lolz. The Prophet says :the women are half of the society that give birth to the other half.

Wait, let's even look at it again. Do you know that 80% of reverts to Islam are women? I guess you don't.. Hahahahahahaha..

Get you fact straight next time pls.

See, this the culture and norm of the land. Each land has its own culture and norm. And why do you want to travel dia if u can't abide by dia norms. Covering of the body is not even about religion, it's moral, common sense tells that the body shouldn't be exposed.

And to women not driving.
If you know Saudi which am sure you don't, you will know that dia are not like the western world. Transition from men to both sex driving is not that fast. The society must be prepared and ready for it. But am sure work is ongoing bout that. Lolz

Saudi won't force you to cover your body but upon entering there land. You must abide by the norms. If you are in Rome, you behave like Romans..

"Let there be no compulsion in
religion. Truth has been made
clear from error. Whoever
rejects false worship and believes

You have clarified nothing. Have you missed the part where Montesquieu wrote that "in those countries, infancy and marriage generally go together."?



In New Hampshire you can get married at the age of 13 in cases of "special cause" with parental consent and court permission but definitely not against your will.



Who cares?



Fortunately, the world has changed unlike religions.




It is.
Lolz.
1. About the infancy, I guess you answered yourself. INFANCY AND MARRIAGES GOES TOGETHER..
But that was in the 6th century hot Arabian desert. If anyone marry such now, it is a crime. Females generally mature faster than we have today. You can't possibly compare the two. We now have Air conditioning, iPhones and iPads when all they had then was a scorching heat.

2. And you also said Religion don't change
Yes you are right, my religion don't change. Unlike Atheism, which formerly forbids but now allows consensual incest.
If you know Islam very well, you will understand that it is a religion that guides the way of life. For example, during the time of the Prophet, there was no air-conditioning in the mosques, but we now have state-of-the-art mosques with world class facilities all around the world. Also, during the time of the Prophet, there was nothing like the speed cars e. g the Ferrari and the buggatis.. But go to Qatar today, u see imams cruising in speed cars.
That doesn't mean the religion has change but with the scope of time. We have been able to adapt our ways to fit into the society we find ourselves.

3. And the New Hampshire issue.
Exactly my point. At special conditions, it is allowed, not only in U. S but majority of the countries. As at 2007,the accepted age for marriage in Spain was 7.. Islam actually prohibits the marriage without consent, both of the parents and the bride WITH WITNESSES..

CHAP. I.: Of domestic Servitude.
SLAVES are established for the family, but they are not a part of it. Thus I distinguish their servitude from that which the women, in some countries, suffer, and which I shall properly call domestic servitude.

CHAP. II.: That, in the Countries of the South, there is a natural Inequality between the two Sexes.
WOMEN, in hot climates, are* marriageable at eight, nine, or ten, years of age: thus, in those countries, infancy and marriage generally go together. They are old at twenty: their reason, therefore, never accompanies their beauty. When beauty demands the empire, the want of reason forbids the claim; when reason is obtained, beauty is no more. These women ought, then, to be in a state of dependence; for reason cannot procure, in old age, that empire which even youth and beauty could not give. It is therefore extremely natural, that, in these places, a man, when no law opposes it, should leave one wife to take another, and that polygamy should be introduced.

Where did I make a comment on the prophet?




So what if it was a norm back in the day? Does it make it right?



Genocide was a norm too in human history. Does it make it right?
Thank God I have been able to clarify the issue of the marriage with Aisha.

The purpose of the citations I made was to tell you that in the 6th century hot Arabian desert, women mature early at the age of 8,9,10. At 20, they are usually considered old.
Now fast forward to our generation, the 21st century, women that even marry at the age of 20 is said to be young. So, women mature differently at different times at different places.

That is why even in the U. S, ages of marriage varies with New Hampshire having 13, New York having 15 and South Carolina having 16.

Even mother Mary(May the peace and salutations of Allah be on her noble soul) was married to Joseph at the age of 12..

And you said "does that makes it right"
The point is, it wasn't until recently that it became an issue because if such marriages occur today, it is child marriage and child molestation. You can read about marriage in the ancient Egyptian culture too.

His name is spelled (Charles de) Montesquieu. Now quote the source, in which he allegedly said so. And then again, how was he qualified to determine the age at which puberty begins for Arab girls?
Reference : Spirit of Laws Montesquieu Book 16 page 264 -5. Please before you comment on the Prophet marital relation, pls learn your history.

Why do you think it is not until recently that the marriage of Aisha to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) became an issue. It's because, then, it was a complete norm.

Me sighting Montesquieu is to tell you that it was complete norm then.. Even as at 2007,Spain allowed marriage of 7yrs old girl.. Comment on what you know something about please.

So then what is the role of the Sultan and Emir. The Sultan after all is the leader of Muslims do you think they need to come out to clarify why these people are being taken to their palaces . Or do you not see the damage being done to the reputation of Muslims. How would Muslims react if it had been Muslim women would they not have burnt some churches and beheaded a few "infidels" like me as your brother described me earlier?
LOLZ. I guess you still have a lot to learn bout Islam.

1. The news of them going to the emir is still not confirmed as no official statement has been made by the palace.

2. Someone being the leader of Muslims is due to the post he holds as the emir of a Muslim state. That doesn't make him God Or Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He is prone to errors too.

Pls read a book bout Islam.. It will really go a long way in your reasoning trust me. I suggest you get a copy of the book attached.

For me it is possible to disagree peacefully.

You keep going on about belief in God while failing to address the abductions. Please deal with the issue of forced abduction and conversion

The fact still remains you don't judge the existence of many based on the actions of a few.

For those who do not know caravans were simply a procession of Camels and animals travelling across the desert in a large number carrying a lot of goods and wealth.

Many Arabs in those days attacked such processions robbing them of valuables and you guessed right(WOMEN). They would kidnap men for ransom as well . That was how Muhammid lived while he was is Medina. In short the Modern day equivalent of a highway robber and we can see where Boko Haram draw their inspiration
LOL. Ignorance.. Why not start reading from the authentic Hadeeth and see why 1.7billion individual wants to follow this "high way robber" as you called (I seek forgiveness for your soul).

LOL. Good that means you have actually been reading some Islamic literature.. Nice.. But lemme now enlighten you.

The Prophet (SAW) was chosen head of the city state of
Yathrib which was later renamed as MadinatunNabi, in 622
A D. To maintain the sovereignty of the state all passing
caravans or vehicles would become trespassers or
intruders unless it was recognised and affiliated by the
state. It's unconfirmed if there were any Jews caravans
were attacked as rights of Yathribi or Medinine Jews were
confirmed in Constitution of Medina and Jews of
Madina used to carry on their . Some espionage or traitor
troop of Jews may be taken down. The booty of Women
is also questionable. Trade caravan hardly had women as
the prolonged journey the desert were very havoc to bear.
Besides the question of sovereignty, the major operation
to capture Makkan Caravan took place as Makkans seized
the remaining properties of Muslims in Makka and wanted
to sell those in Syrian Market. That incident was one of
the precursor or first major Makkan-Muslims conflict.
So, the major cause of caravan raids WERE NOT GETTING
BOOTY, but to maintain sovereignty and achieve security
for newly formed state of Madina.

What does the expression "What your right hand possesses" ma malakat aymanukum mean? stop deceiving yourself.

The Quran says so many contradictory things which many so called Muslims deny. The fact is simple Muhammid advocated peace when he was in Mecca and had no political power. After he fled to Medina he became more militant and then Allah "allowed" all kinds of violent behaviour like hijacking caravans and so on. So people often make a distinction between Meccan Suras and Medinan Suras the latter being more violent in tone.

I am not a Christian and my criticism is not about promoting Christianity.

I have studied the Quran very well and it is the work of man. No doubt at some point a man in contact with his Higher Self but at other points a man motivated by politics power and selfish drives. How else does one explain Allah not finding anything to say in his revelation but to tell his prophet that it was okay for his adopted son to divorce his wife so he could marry her.

When you say The Quran says there is no compulsion in religion this is true but it also says that there is compulsion. Not only that there are countless hadiths of people who were given the option of being killed or converting
RIGHT HAND POSSES IS EXPLAINED BELOW


Does #Islam permit a #Muslim man to have sex with
his slaves in addition to his legal wives? Those
arguing it does, frequently cite the #Quran , verses
23:5-6 as support for their position.
These verses as translated by Yusuf Ali reads: “Who
abstain from sex, Except with those joined to them in
the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right
hands possess, for (in their case) they are free from
blame”
The phrase “right hands possess” (arabic: Ma malakat
aymanukum) used in verse 23:6 is presumed to mean
“captives” (obtained through defensive war). And
hence, many interpret this verse as permitting sex with
one’s war captives or slaves.
However, the translation by Muhammad Asad reads
slightly differently: “and who are mindful of their
chastity[not giving way to their desires] with any but
their spouses - that is, those whom they rightfully
possess [through wedlock]: for then, behold, they are
free of all blame”
Whilst I do like that you have chosen the nicest translation of
the original text I find it unfortunate to say that this is a biased
approach. I would prefer it if the Quran said not to have sex
with slaves, that is my preference, but it's a mixed blessing
that reality doesn't conform to my preferences.
1. Ahmad Ali: Except from their wives and women slaves of
old are free of blame,
2. Arberry: Save from their wives and what their right hands
own then being not blameworthy
3. Daryabadi: Save in regard to their spouses and those
whom their right hands own: so they are not blameworthy
4. Khan: Except from their wives or the legal bondwomen
that they possess, for then there is no blame upon them
5. Maududi: save from their wives, or those whom their right
hands possess; for with regard to them they are free from
blame
6. Pickthall: Save from their wives or the (slaves) that their
right hands possess, for then they are not blameworthy
7. Qaribullah: except with their wives and what their right
hand possess, and then they are not blamed.
8. Sahi Intl: Except from their wives or those their right hands
possess, for indeed, they will not be blamed
9. Except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or
(the captives) whom their right hands possess,- for (in
their case) they are free from blame,
10. Shakir: Except before their mates or those whom their right
hands possess, for they surely are not blameable,
There is quite a bit of variation here. Some interpret "Right
hands possess" to mean slaves, some just quote it as it
literally appears in the Quran. Ahmad Ali adds the words "of
old" which do not exist in the Quran, a good example of
translating the text to mean what you want rather than
translating what it actually says. From this all we can
conclude so far is that we need to work out the definition of
"Right hands possess".
1. Except with your wives or (to put it another way) with
those your right hands possess (through marriage).
2. Except with your wives or with those your right hands
posses.
The words "to put it another way" and "of old" do not appear
in the original Arabic so must be inferred from other parts of
the Quran, as Tanvir has done.
Muhammad Asad’s rendering of this verse indicates
that there is no blame if one has sex with whom they
“rightfully possess” through wedlock (ie. marriage).
The justification for this rendering is given in his
commentary on this verse, reproduced below:
“Many of the commentators assume unquestioningly
that this relates to female slaves, and that the particle
aw ("or"wink denotes a permissible alternative. This
interpretation is, in my opinion, inadmissible inasmuch
as it is based on the assumption that sexual
intercourse with ones female slave is permitted
without marriage: an assumption, which is
contradicted by the Qur'an itself (see 4:3, 24, 25 and
24:32)
I will address each referenced verse in turn.
4:2 Give unto orphans their wealth. Exchange
not the good for the bad (in your management
thereof) nor absorb their wealth into your own
wealth. Lo! that would be a great sin.
4:3 And if ye fear that ye will not deal fairly by
the orphans, marry of the women, who seem
good to you, two or three or four; and if ye fear
that ye cannot do justice (to so many) then
one (only) or (the captives) that your right
hands possess. Thus it is more likely that ye
will not do injustice.
Various hadiths explain that 4:2-3 are verses about men
marrying female orphans in their care. Two things these
verses forbid are
1. That the man mixes the wealth of the orphan with his own
because she has more money (Mainly described in 4:2)
2. If the man desires the orphan for reasons other than
money he must ensure that he pays her a suitable Mahr
(dowry), one that another suitor would have paid. Giving
her anything less than she deserves would unjust.


ALSO ON MUHAMMAD (PBUH) IN MEDINAH

Am sure your reading of the Quran is biased.
When Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) visited Mecca for the first time after he was sent out. He had his head lowered saying that "today is the day of forgiveness". So, the man you said hijacked caravans his definitely not my Prophet. Cuz the man I know is much more handsome, so beautiful. And I guess he is so selfish to he extent that 1.7billion human being want to copy everything he does. Lols. Think again bro. I mean he was awarded the greatest law giver of all time by the U S supreme Court of law. My Prophet is the best individual to walk the surface of Earth. And no matter what you say and how you say it, he would still continue to be. Just look around you. Shaadah is on the rise, people waking up every day.

I GUESS YOU AN ATHEIST TOO.. SMH

Rebecca was 20yrs old when isaac married her as against mohammads craving for a 6yr old to be his baby mama
You really need to read a book. Aisha (May Allah be pleased with her) was mature when she married Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). And Rebecca was 3yrs old when she married Isaac.

muha is d best example for Muslims to emulate, since most southern Muslims refuse to follow muha acts such as child marriage, the north can call them false Muslims.
Mr., Don't let you sentiments blind ur sense of judgement.. Islam clearly forbids the marriage of minor. Aisha was mature when he married Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).. Try reading the Quran and the authentic Hadeeth before you talk what you don't know..

Thank me later

have you actually read the Quran ? because what you write is untrue. The Quran sanctions the taking of unbelieving women BY FORCE
Qur’an 23:1-6—The Believers must (eventually) win through—those who humble themselves in their prayers; who avoid vain talk; who are active in deeds of charity; who abstain from sex, except with those joined to them in the marriage bond, or (the captives) whom their right hands possess—for (in their case) they are free from blame.

Qur’an 70:22-30—Not so those devoted to Prayer—those who remain steadfast to their prayer; and those in whose wealth is a recognized right for the (needy) who asks and him who is prevented (for some reason from asking); and those who hold to the truth of the Day Of Judgement; and those who fear the displeasure of their Lord—for their Lord’s displeasure is the opposite of Peace and Tranquility—and those who guard their chastity, except with their wives and the (captives) whom their right hands possess—for (then) they are not to be blamed.

Qur’an 33:50—O Prophet! surely We have made lawful to you your wives whom you have given their dowries, and those whom your right hand possesses out of those whom Allah has given to you as prisoners of war
I still see no place in the verses you quoted that authorised FORCE.. The Quran says "there is no COMPULSION in religion"..
