Ruling on marrying young women
en

I need to know, when did the Holy Prophet get married to Hazrat Aisha, 
there have been claims on newsgroups that the Holy Prophet was a 
pedophile. I want enough information to be able to answer such 
allegations.

I need to know everything about this particular marriage, quoting 
sources. 

Wa-alaikum




Praise be to Allaah.


The answer to your question may be found in the ahaadeeth of Saheeh al-Bukhaari 
and the commentary of al-Haafiz al-‘Asqallaani, which are quoted below:

‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: "The Prophet 
 (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him) married me when I was six years old. 
Then we came 
to Madeenah and stayed in Bani al-Haarith ibn Khazraj. I fell ill and my
 hair started to fall out (due to the illness; then it grew back thick 
again). My mother Umm Roomaan came to me whilst I 
was on a swing and my friends were with me. She shouted for me and I 
came to her, 
not knowing what she wanted. She took me by the hand and led me to the 
door of the 
house. I was out of breath and we waited until I had calmed down, then 
she took 
some water and wiped my face and head, then took me inside. There were 
some 
women of the Ansaar in the house, and they said: " ‘Alaa al-khayri 
wa’l-baraka wa ‘ala 
khayri taa’ir (blessings, best wishes, etc)." My mother handed me over 
to them and 
they tidied me up, then suddenly the Messenger of Allaah 
 (peace and blessings of 
Allaah be upon him) was there. It was mid-morning, and they handed me 
over to him. 
At that time I was nine years old." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 3605).

‘Urwah said: "Khadeejah died three years before the Prophet 
 (peace and blessings 
of Allaah be upon him) migrated to Madeenah. He stayed alone for two years or 
thereabouts, then he married ‘Aa’ishah when she was six years old, and 
consummated 
the marriage when she was nine years old." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 3607)

The phrase "he married ‘Aa’ishah" means that the marriage contract was drawn 
up; 
the marriage was consummated later on, when she was nine.

Muslim reports from al-Zuhri, from ‘Urwah, that ‘Aa’ishah said that she was 
taken to 
him when she was nine years old, and she took her toys with her. He died when 
she 
was eighteen years old. Muslim also reports a similar account from ‘Aa’ishah 
via 
al-Aswad. He reports from ‘Abdullaah ibn ‘Urwah from his father that ‘Aa’ishah 
said: 
"The Messenger of Allaah 
 (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) married me 
in Shawwaal and consummated the marriage with me in Shawwaal."

‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said that the Prophet 
 (peace and 
blessings of Allaah be upon him) married her when she was six years old and 
consummated the marriage when she was nine years old, and she stayed with him 
for 
nine years." (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 4738)

Al-Bukhaari calls this chapter of his Saheeh "Baab inkaah al-rajul wuldahu (or 
waladahu) al-sighaar (Chapter on a man marrying off his young children)." The 
fact 
that Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): 
". . . and for those who have no courses [periods] [(i.e., they are still 
immature) 
their ‘iddah is three months likewise, except in case of death] . . ." 
[al-Talaaq 65:4]
is an indication that it is permissible to marry girls below the age of 
adolescence. This 
is a good understanding, but the aayah makes no specific mention of either the 
father 
or the young girl. It could be said that the basic principle concerning 
marrying children 
is that it is forbidden unless there is specific evidence (daleel) to indicate 
otherwise. 
The hadeeth of ‘Aa’ishah states that her father Abu Bakr married her off before 
the 
age of puberty, but there is no other evidence apart from that, so the rule 
applies to all 
other cases.

Al- Muhallab said: "[The scholars] agreed that it is permissible for a father 
to marry 
off his young virgin daughter, even though it is not usually the case to have 
intercourse 
with such a young woman."

(The above was summarized from Fath al-Baari Sharh ‘ala Saheeh al-Bukhaari)

In summary, then, it is permitted to contract marriage with a young girl and to 
hand 
her over to her husband to stay with him before she reaches adolescence. As for 
consummating the marriage, this does not happen until she is physically able 
for it. 
Thus the matter becomes quite clear. Do you see anything wrong with a man 
living 
with his young wife in one house, bringing her up and teaching her, but 
delaying 
consummation until she is ready for it? We ask Allaah to show us truth and 
falsehood 
and to make each clear. And Allaah knows best.
