Quote (Stu @ May 24 2010,16:51) Quote (bodhitharta @ May 23 2010,11:44) Quote (Stu @ May 23 2010,10:42) So because you ignore a set of islamic writings that have critical importance for the vast majority of muslims, you have a better understanding of both islam and christianity. Like I said, they won't see it that way.

The Hadiths are not critically important to most Muslims they are simply accepted readings regarding Islam not even all Hadiths are accepted at all:Now here is one clear point:
Child marriage in Islam is justified on the basis of a hadith in Bukhari which says that the Prophet married Hazrath Aisha when she was just six and consummated the marriage when she was nine.
This hadith cannot be true for several reasons. First, the Prophet could not have gone against the Quran to marry a physically and intellectually immature child. Secondly, the age of Hazrat Aisha can be easily calculated from the age of her elder sister Hazrat Asma who was 10 years older than Hazrat Aisha. Waliuddin Muhammad Abdullah Al-Khateeb al Amri Tabrizi the famous author of Mishkath, in his biography of narrators (Asma ur Rijal), writes that Hazrat Asma died in the year 73 Hijri at the age of 100, ten or twelve days after the martyrdom of her son Abdullah Ibn Zubair. It is common knowledge that the Islamic calendar starts from the year of the Hijrah or the Prophet’s migration from Mecca to Medina. Therefore, by deducting 73, the year of Hazrat Asma’s death, from 100, her age at that time, we can easily conclude that she was 27-years old during Hijra. This puts the age of Hazrat Aisha at 17 during the same period. As all biographers of the Prophet agree that he consummated his marriage with Hazrat Aisha in the year 2 Hijri it can be conclusively said that she was 19 at that time and not 9 as alleged in the aforementioned hadith.

The fact is Hadiths are like hear say some might have been said and some may have not been said or not said the way it is reported.
You never posted that when we discussed the pedophilia of Mohammad earlier on.I think it is a crock of lies.

The fact is STU,There is no information in the Quran in regards to Aisha and Muhammad's time of marriage and therefore when you accused him of being a pedophile I was not even aware of these different hadiths or the information that I gave you at this time.
Why is it a crock of lies when you disagree? Surely you were not there and nor was I.
