Didn't he first marry a rich older women, before his talk with Allah. Really he just seems a bit like a pedophile who took charge and changed the rules.

You love that story. Jealous, much? Because, you know, child marriages to cement power never happened during that time period. Especially in Europe. None of these happened. Margaret Beaufort, (age approximately 7) was married to John de la Pole (age 7) in 1450 by the arrangement John's father. [5] The marriage was annulled in 1453. [6] Joan of France, Duchess of Berry, betrothed in a wedding contract at age 8 days old, she was officially married at age 12 in 1476. [7] Anne de Mowbray, 8th Countess of Norfolk (age 6) was married to Richard of Shrewsbury, 1st Duke of York (age 4) in 1477. She died at age 10 and he, as one of the Princes in the Tower is believed to have been murdered at age 10. [8] Rukhmabai was married in India to her husband when she was 11 and he was 19. [9] After a lengthy court battle, the marriage was dissolved by an order from Queen Victoria and the publicity helped influence the passage of the Age of Consent Act, 1891 which outlawed child marriages across the British Empire.[ contradictory] [10]Janakiammal Iyengar was married at the age of 10 years to the legendary Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan.
