Much depends on how one looks at it!

As a rule, in Moslem countries, girls are generally married off as soon as they reach puberty. It's part of their culture. Of course this is very repugnant to a lot of Christian Westerners and others........

In a way, it reminds me of what the self-proclaimed Utahn prophet, Emmanuel David Issaiah (Brian David Mitchell) did to 14.5 year-old Elizabeth Smart during the nine months they were together. (Court documents show he "raped" that attractive girl umpteen times!)
