Ban the
preaching of child marriage by Islamic preachers - and all others.
MOHAMMED, THE PROPHET OF THE
RELIGION ISLAM, ‘MARRIED’ HIS FOURTH WIFE, SHE WAS A 6 YEARS OLD, HE WAS OVER
50 YEAR OLD.
This petition aims at letting people
know about a simple fact:
MOHAMMED, PROPHET OF THE ISLAMIC
RELIGION, ‘MARRIED’ HIS FOURTH ‘WIFE’. HE WAS OVER 50 YEARS OLD WHEN THE
POLIGAMOUS ‘MARRIAGE’ TOOK PLACE, THE ‘SPOUSE’ WAS A LITTLE GIRL CALLED AISHA,
SHE WAS 6 YEARS OLD.
Mohammed
married Aisha when she was 6, and consummated the marriage at 9. There is
some debate within Islam about her age, but the overwhelming consensus is
6. Below are the hadith (records of the actions of Mohammed that are very
much a part of Islam) in support of this:
Khadija
died three years before the Prophet departed to Medina. He stayed there for two
years or so and then he married 'Aisha when she was a girl of six years of age,
and he consumed that marriage when she was nine years old. Sahih Bukhari
5:58:236
'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) married me when I was six years old, and I was admitted to his house when I was nine years old. Sahih Muslim 8:3310
From the hadith of the Sunan of Abu Dawud, volume 2, #2116 "Aisha
said, "The Apostle of Allah married me when I was seven years old."
(The narrator Sulaiman said: "Or six years."). "He had
intercourse with me when I was 9 years old."

“These texts are direct translation of the Hadith, Arabic
Ḥadīth (“News” or “Story”), also spelled Hadīt , record of the traditions or sayings of the
Prophet Muhammad, revered and received as a
major source of religious law and moral guidance, second
only to the authority of the Qurʾān, the holy book of Islam.
Hadith has become a
synonym for the term Sunnah.”
However, the
plight is not more about what the scriptures say but about the thousands of documents
produced by Muslim preachers, believers or followers entirely condoning,
honoring and recommending this marriage of an old man with a young child.
This information is accurate. Please, be aware that
‘these teachings’ legitimised as fundamental to the Islamic religion can be
found by the thousands on the internet via a very
simple word search.
Preaching that the marriage of Mohammed to a little
girl is appropriate or can be taken as a, or the model has grave and beyond
horrid and vile consequences. From child
marriage in countries like Saudi Arabia, to the many
stories of Imams being caught on camera in Britain agreeing to marry children
and presenting it as a suitable practise under Islam.
The campaign and petition have two purposes: One, to
ensure that people know what happens. The ‘marriages’ in themselves but also
the fact that marriages of children with adults are in fact professed via the
teaching of Islam. Two, it would then ask the government to sanction direct or
indirect incentives and incitation to paedophilia and child marriage (paedophile
marriages). Pragmatically, it means that Islamic teachers should be condemning child
marriage systematically, and be severely sanctioned when advocating it. To
praise Mohammed’s life without expressively condemning child marriage is in
fact support to paedophilia.
The prophet Mohammed is highly praised and constantly cited
as being the prophet and only prophet of Islam. His name is introduction to
almost any communication and verbal or written exchange in culture Islam.
No one needs to enter madrasas, Islamic schools, to figure
out that Mohammed’s life is given as example and model.
PLEASE HELP US AND SIGN THE PETITION.
ask the government to stop the teachings
(happening in public or private places, but even in schools or madrassas
teaching children about the Islamic prophet’s ‘marriage’ to a child) allowing
(and ultimately willing to enforce) this model of paedophilic marriage to take
place.
Sign the petition to make the direct or
indirect teachings of paedophilic acts explicitly illegal in the UK, in Europe
and elsewhere- we will campaign without borders.
We know that paedophilic ‘marriages’ are
not particular to one faith. We will use this campaign’s results as
jurisprudence for any other forms of paedophilia.
PS: These acts or arrangements
have traditionally been called child marriage. Still calling them child
marriage hopefully would remind us who needs to be, by any means, protected. To
call them paedophilic marriage could focus on the criminalization of paedophile
and paedophilic culture permitting, encouraging it. To call it ‘child marriage’
stops naming what, once we know, make us all complicit of, since not stopping
it: paedophilia.
Thank you for your support. Could you sign the
petition and share it?
Regards.
