Lorne,
Is Muhammad a pedophile?
Message 16757478
Note the name Aisha bint Abu Bakr. She was 9, according to this Muslim source. But in fact, many sources have her age at 6 when Muhammad married her. But he did not have sex with her in some accounts to she was 9. But either way, you be the judge.
I am going to post the Muslim side of this argument, which tries to prove Muhammad was not a pedophile, nor a child abuser (some on the thread have asked for me to defend Islam, but posting a Muslim source and opinion, is as far as I go, even though I don't necessarily agree with it...)
iol.ie
Funny thing is, even if he doesn't fit the clinical definition of a pedophile, there is something wrong I think in most peoples mind in marrying a 6 or 9 year old as Muhammad did.
God Bless,
