Hi,The following text is in french and i got it from a muslim friend. It is about an 8 years old girl forced to marry a 28 years old man in Yemen. She has been divorced after the court in Yemen heard her case against her own father who forced her to mary the man.Some muslims say this is accepted since their prophate married once a girl around some age. There are probably many other kids who were given to older men because their prophate Mohamed done the same once and they think it is acceptable? this is another child abouse thought by their great prophate. who ever knows french can read the whole story bellow.AmiUne fillette yéménite obtient le divorce après un mariage forcé à un homme de 28 ans Yémen : Une fillette yéménite de 8 ans a obtenu mardi le divorce après avoir porté plainte auprès d'un tribunal contre son père qui l'avait "forcée il y a deux mois et demi à se marier" à un homme de 28 ans. Ph AFP Le verdict a été prononcé par un tribunal de première instance à Sanaa lors d'une audience publique, convoquée sur une plainte déposée samedi par Nojoud Mohammad Ali contre son père Mohammad Ali Al-Ahdal et son mari Faëz Ali Thameur. "Je suis heureuse d'être maintenant divorcée. Je vais pouvoir aller de nouveau à l'école", a déclaré aux journalistes Nojoud, un sourire aux lèvres. La fillette, âgée de 8 ans selon le président du tribunal, le juge Mohammad Al-Qadhi, a indiqué qu'elle était en 2e année de primaire lorsqu'elle a été mariée. "On m'a demandé de signer le contrat de mariage et de rester chez mon père jusqu'à l'âge de 18 ans. Mais une semaine après la signature, mon père et ma mère m'ont obligée" à aller vivre chez mon mari, a ajouté Nojoud, drapée de noir, comme la plupart des filles et femmes yéménites. Désormais, "je vais vivre chez mon oncle maternel", a poursuivi Nojoud qui a dit avoir pardonné à son père. "J'étais obligé de la marier. Mais je l'ai mariée avec son consentement car j'avais peur pour elle et pour mes enfants", a hurlé son père durant l'audience. Pour justifier le mariage de sa fille, Mohammad Ali Al-Ahdal, un chômeur, a affirmé devant le tribunal qu'un homme avait kidnappé il y a quelques années sa fille aînée qu'il avait fini par épouser. Ensuite, ce même homme avait enlevé sa fille cadette, pourtant mariée et mère de quatre enfants, une initiative qui lui avait coûté la prison. "Je me suis marié à (Nojoud) avec son consentement et celui de ses parents", a dit de son côté le mari. En réponse à une question du juge, il a indiqué que "le mariage avait été consommé" et qu'il n'avait pas battu la fillette. "Je n'ai pas d'objection à sa demande de divorce", a-t-il dit à la fin de l'audience. L'avocate, Chadha Nasser, qui s'est portée volontaire pour défendre Nojoud, a expliqué que "cette affaire n'est pas unique au Yémen". "Je crois qu'il y a des milliers de cas similaires", a-t-elle ajouté, indiquant que des organisations de la société civile, dont des mouvements féministes, pressent le Parlement d'adopter "une loi fixant à 18 ans l'âge du mariage". Le Yémen, un pays de la péninsule arabique, considéré parmi les plus pauvres au monde, a une population à structure tribale où la tradition handicape encore l'évolution de la société

it's believed Mohammed the prophet of islam married a 9 year old girl, aisha. and there's proof of that in their writings. some would say that this is an act of pedophile, which i agree, but muslim scholars say that this girl, aisha, was a mature girl at 9 years old.
It doesnt matter how mature a child seems, 8 or 9 years old is still to young. Anything below 16 is much too young and even 16 is questionable. I married my wife when we were both 18 and she still looked too young. Muhammad and his followers are a bunch of lustful heathens and they justify it with their faith.

What's with some religions or cultures that endorse marrying a girl young enough to be the husband's kid or even grandkid? Is that all they can handle instead of a mature, red-blooded woman I wonder?

When Ayesha, daughter of Abu Bakr (the first Caliph after Muhammad died), was 6 years old, Muhammad proposed to Abu Bakr claiming that Allah had given her to him. Abu Bakr was shocked, but was finally persuaded. However, as was the custom for underaged girls, she stayed with her parents until puberty.When Ayesha was 9 years, the consummation of the marriage took place. When that happened, the hadiths recorded that Ayesha was still playing with her dolls, and was totally shocked by the event. She was to be Muhammad's last wife.

When A leader proclaims that God has allowed him to sleep with a child........................................................................... then that speaks volumes.
