Those who think she’s too young are wrong and they are being unfair to her.”

… “We hear a lot in the media about the marriage of underage girls,” he said, according to the newspaper. “We should know that Shariah law has not brought injustice to women.”
To The Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al-Sheikh (PBUH) It has been this way for thousands of years and should remain so.

My grandmother was married at 13 and my mother-in-law at 12.
They are not Muslim. “I like your Christ. I don’t like your Christains. They are so unlike your Christ.”

The emmulation of Mohammad with regards to this practice is disturbing as it shows that in modern times you have a massive group of people who are handicapped by their religion and in turn subdue the human right and virtue of free will! How can a young girl be born into this kind of slavery in this day and age? I'm not sure either... guess they'll have to ask their dog when they meet him. <div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('148','jljahrig'); return false;">Reply</a> | <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('148','jljahrig','Thank you for your stoic comments on this (they do not go unnoticed).
