This is apologia.
Why, through centuries of Muslim scholarship, was this conclusion not came to earlier? There are thousands and thousands of pages written by thousands and thousands of Muslim commentators and scholars that did not have a problem with her age at marriage, nor consider it particularly notable. It’s only now, at a Western university, in a world which unequivocally does not accept people fucking 9 year olds that the story changes.
Aisha was active a long time after Mohammad’s death. How old are we suggesting she was married at?
There are other hadiths that mention her being young (playing with dolls). So we’re throwing out a Hadith that many many Muslims have historically accepted, that seems to align with other hadiths that many many Muslims have historically accepted.
This is a clear Occam’s razor situation.
Is it “Christophobic” to point out that Mary was fourteen when God impregnated here? That seems to make the Christian god a clear pedophile.
Aisha was such a badass I wish some radical feminist Muslim women would retool the entire religion around her though.
