mizzkweenbee:Hey retard!,next time you want to quote,do it with common sense. Did i declare my support for what the emir did,did i even address the emir's issue. N.B: i am addressing the issue of the prophet marrying a nine year old girl. |
I admit i was wrong,but pls give me the legal age of marriage stipulated by the bible, Btw, i pulled this out from catholic encyclopedia: By the common law the age at which minors were capable of marrying, known as the age of consent, was fixed at fourteen years for males and twelve years for females . Marriages under the age of seven years for both were void, but between seven and the age of consent the parties could contract an imperfect marriage, which was voidable but not necessarily void. The marriage of parties who had attained the age of consent was valid even though they lacked parental consent, |

Ngozi123:Pls explain verses seven and eight |
The age of consent in one of the American States was just 7 years, just 120 years ago! But the Western people did not know that and just criticized Islam and Muslims for the marriage of the Mohammed and Aisha more than 1400 years ago. In England for example in the parish of Middlesex County, Virginia, there is a record of 14-year-old Sarah Halfhide marrying 21-year-old Richard Perrot. Of the 98 girls on the 10-year register, three probably married at age 8, one at 12, one at 13, and two at 14. In fact, until the mid 1960s, the legal age of consent in Delaware was 7. |
At present, people in the West look upon the 7th century history of young age marriages in the Middle-East with such astonishment as though it never happened in their part of the world. |
"When the Austrian-born Archduchess Marie Antoinette was married off at age fourteen to France's future king -- crowned Louis XVI in 1774 -- her overriding duty was to give the kingdom an heir." |
All these are christian marriages in the dark ages and they were not sanctioned by the church,why then will you accuse someone who did same 1400 yrs ago,knowing fully well it was still a norm centuries after he had died |
Bianca of Savoy, Duchess of Milan was married aged 13 (1350), and aged 14 when she gave birth to her eldest son, Giangaleazzo (1351). Theodora Comnena was aged 13 when she was married King Baldwin III of Jerusalem (1158). Agnes of France was 12 when, widowed, she was married to Andronicus Comnenus, Byzantine Emperor (1182). St Elizabeth of Portugal was aged 12 when she was married to King Denis of Portugal and gave birth to three children shortly thereafter. Caterina Sforza was betrothed aged 9, married aged 14, and gave birth aged 15. Lucrezia Borgia was married to her first husband aged 13 and bore a son within a few years. Beatrice d'Este was betrothed aged 5 and married aged 15. |
"In the Middle Ages children were married at a young age. Girls were as young as 12 when they married, and boys as young as 17. The arrangement of the marriage was based on monetary worth. The family of the girl who was to be married gives a dowry,or donation, to the boy she is to marry. The dowry goes with her at the time of the marriage and stays with the boy forever (Renolds). After the marriage was arranged a wedding notice was posted on the door of the church. The notice was put up to ensure that there were no grounds for prohibiting the marriage." In 'Juana the Mad of Castille' J.N.W. Bos writes: "Queen Juana I of Castile (1479-1555) .... was born on November 6, 1479, as the second daughter of Queen Isabella I of Castile and King Ferdinand II of Aragon. At the age of 16, Juana was betrothed to Philip the Handsome of Austria (1478-1506), only son of the Emperor Maximilian I. For Philip the attraction to the beautiful, dark haired Juana (to the left) was carnal and little more, but Juana became totally infatuated with her husband ..... his life mainly consisted of feasting, drinking and chasing women - and he had no intention to change his philandering ways. For Juana, however, only absolute togetherness would do. She was too young and inexperienced to realise that she expected too much from a politically arranged marriage." |
Isabella of France (9 November 1389 – 13 September 1409) was Queen consort of England as the second spouse of King Richard II . Her parents were King Charles VI of France and Isabeau of Bavaria . She married the king at the age of seven and was widowed three years later. She later married Charles, Duke of Orléans , dying in childbirth at the age of nineteen. |
Historically within the Catholic Church , prior to the 1917 Code of Canon Law , the minimum age for a dissoluble betrothal (sponsalia de futuro ) was 7 years in the contractees . The minimum age for a valid marriage was puberty, or nominally 14 for males and 12 for females. [33] The 1917 Code of Canon Law raised the minimum age for a valid marriage at 16 for males and 14 for females.[34] The 1983 Code of Canon Law maintained the minimum age for a valid marriage at 16 for males and 14 for females. |
Presentation of Marie Antoinette to Louis Auguste at Versailles, before their marriage. She was married at age 15, on 16 May 1770. Historically, child marriage was common around the world. The practice began to be questioned in the 20th century, with the age of individuals' first marriage increasing in many countries and most countries increasing the minimum marriage age. In ancient and medieval societies, it was common for girls to be betrothed at or even before puberty. [19][20] As Friedman claims, "arranging and contracting the marriage of a young girl were the undisputed prerogatives of her father in ancient Israel." Most girls were married before the age of 15, often at the start of their puberty. [21] In the Middle Ages the age at marriage seems to have been around puberty throughout the Jewish world. [22] Ruth Lamdan writes: “The numerous references to child marriage in the 16th- century Responsa literature and other sources, shows that child marriage was so common, it was virtually the norm. In this context, it is important to remember that in halakha , the term ‘minor’ refers to a girl under twelve years and a day. A girl aged twelve and a half was already considered an adult in all respects.” [23] In Greece, early marriage and motherhood for girls was encouraged. [24] Even boys were expected to marry in their teens. With an average life expectancy between 40 and 45 years, early marriages and teenage motherhood was typical. In Ancient Rome , girls married above the age of 12 and boys above 14. [25] In the Middle Ages , under English civil laws that were derived from Roman laws, marriages before the age of 16 were common. In Imperial China, child marriage was the norm. [26][27] |
Ezekiel 16:4 NIV Translation 4 On the day you were born your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water to make you clean, nor were you rubbed with salt or wrapped in cloths. 5 No one looked on you with pity or had compassion enough to do any of these things for you. Rather, you were thrown out into the open field, for on the day you were born you were despised. 6 “‘Then I passed by and saw you kicking about in your blood, and as you lay there in your blood I said to you, “Live!”[a] 7 I made you grow like a plant of the field. You grew and developed and entered puberty. Your breasts had formed and your hair had grown, yet you were stark naked. 8 “‘Later I passed by, and when I looked at you and saw that you were old enough for love , I spread the corner of my garment over you and covered your naked body … – |

I will like to know the opinions of you guys in the recent pipeline vandalism issue,what do you think the government can do?, I think wr should support the government, he his not leaving until 2019 or probably 2022,he is already in,we should support him for now at least so that the nation can progress,this same people blowing up pipeline were alive and suffering during Jonathan's time and yet they weren't destroying pipelines and confronting the government, just because you do not like him doesn't mean you should be sabotaging his government, why not wait till 2019 and vote him out,the country is now generating less than 1.2million barrels of oil per day and the economy is in recession just because of their actions. It is going to affect every one at last So what will you advice the government to do |

Nigeria shouldn't be compared with any country, when buhari entered, the treasury was virtualy empty, he has saved over 2 trillion with the treasury single account, he reduced the number of presidential fleets of jets, he has embarked on many projects, the price of drilling one barrel of oil is 35 dollars and since he entered, the selling price of oil is on or less than 35 dollars, at a point it was even 24 dollars, and yet still we are still living happily |

Saudi even though an islamic country uses the mornachical system of government, all terrorist organizations are fighting for a caliphate that will be headed by a religious leader called caliph,thereby threatening the saud ruling house which are currently in charge of islamic affairs, what would the saud regime gain in deposing striping themselves off power. Iran supports hizzbullah and some other shia terrorist group openly and yet they are not being blamed by anyone. PS:i am not an anglo Zionist or pro Russian, i support what is good and hate what is evil as for the link you posted, the saudi prince might hace been refering to a prophecy of the prophet when he was talking avout the signs of the end of the world, he said islam will split into 73 sects, Christianity into 72 and judaism into 71, as for islam, two major sect will fight a war ib which many people will die, the two sects are believed to be sunni and shia and people believe the prophecy is being fulfilled by the war in iraq and syria |
