Why are Muslims looked down upon the controversial age of their Prophet's age while there are controversies regarding other gods too?

[Anonymous]

Brahma had sex with his daughter, Shiva beheaded his own son etc so why are we online looking down at Muslims?

Prophet's wife's age*

[MrKinktastic]

Because he is the only central figure in the faith and people are supposed to model their life off him. His wife being 9 years old when he raped her is different from fables about gods who do both positive and negative things (including marrying underaged brides) which are illustrative takes on ways of life which are meant to be taken metaphorically.


He also did things like cover her eyes when their were visitors behaving oddly (Ethiopians manner of dress) to protect her chastity which shows he considered her a child and raped her anyways.

[Asker]

Can you please be more irrelevant? There is no partner to Islamic God. Let alone marrying or raping other. Where does it say about he raped her? She wasn't ever too suppressed.

[MrKinktastic]

She was 9 years old, he had sex with her which, due to her inability to grant consent due to her age, is rape.

[Asker]

No explanation to back up your claim of partners to God in Islam? Thought so.
Again, tell me where is it written that she didn't consent. Also, the same book which says that she was 9 years old also mentions that its legal to marry a girl who understands laws of marriage, inheritance under Islamic law. And she was indeed an exception.

[Asker]

And a girl who has reached puberty*

[MrKinktastic]

So the writer of the rules made an exception for himself/his child bride. That’s a great example to set for his followers /sarcasm

Muhammad was his prophet and is supposed to be copied as far as his life decisions, which unfortunately includes his raiding of caravans and his pedophilia.

[Asker]

Nope. It's stated that she matured in the same book that has her age mentioned.

[MrKinktastic]

She was 6 when they became engaged (and he stole her from another engagement which was against his own laws) and he consummated the marriage when she was 9, he can say she’s mature all he wants it doesn’t make it true.

[Asker]

Engagement can be broken, even if married, divorces can be made. Even then, he was the first to give laws that widows/divorced women can marry with THEIR CONSENT. And again, Aisha was engaged, not married before him. Even then breaking engagement isn't against Islamic law. How ignorant are you, buddy?
And yes, she was mature.

[MrKinktastic]

Good to know you consider a 9 year old old enough for sex, says a lot about you.

[Asker]

And again, you're going to believe that she was 9 and when the same book suggests that she was mature for her age, you won't believe it? Kudos man, kudos.

[Asker]

Thank you for cherry picking.

[jshm2]

Muslims aren't looked down up, let alone for that reason.

Dipshits who go on about the age of Aisha (ra) forget that the average age of life in that era was below 50. There was nothing wrong with marrying young. Kings, princes, and the well to do, would marry their kids off as part of alliances and agreements.

Laws back then are not laws right now, of course. You could lynch a black man in the USA at that time as well, in fact you could do so right up until around the 1980's. Hence any dimwit tries to throw stones regarding the past, you can shove one down their throat.

[Assi2k]

Islam is one of the largest religions and the rest is smaller.
Muslims have been on the news doing questionable stuff.
The US is at war with many Muslim countries and spouted a lot of propaganda.
911.
I think there’s more reasons but I think this is a start.

[Asker]

Islam is the second largest religion. These Gods are under third largest religion. People of all religions have done questionably stuff. The USA wouldn't have to be with war if they hadn't invaded the Islamic countries in the first place. And majority of Muslims have spent their lifetimes condemning 911. Even if we look at colonialisation, it was Christians who stripped off wealths of countries. Hitler was a Christian. Hindus are in majority in India and look how they're treating Muslims, Christians and lower cast Hindus there. They still practice caste system.

Why are people so selective about Muslims and Islam? Can't they see all this?

[Kelly6]

Can’t you see that for oil you invaded iraq with fake wmd? Lol

[Assi2k]

I was just giving reasons for the question. I didn’t give u my opinion. I usually can keep my opinions to myself on these kinds of topics. Cheers.

[Anonymous]

Because while other religions and beliefs may have also had young child brides, Islam is substantially larger and more influential, and still follows a book that allows for such crimes. Islam is a religion that follows 7th century views in a 21st century world.

[Asker]

Like 21st century is all well balanced? All going good? Child marriage was before Islam, yes i know. But Quran mentions that a girl is capable of getting married when she is well into her puberty and is mature enough to handle laws and rules of marriage according to shariah. What crimes are you talking about? The prophet is acknowledged as the greatest law maker in the world, even by US supreme Court.

Do you need to me to point out caste system in Hinduism?

[Opinion Owner]

No, I never said that, but good job trying to strawman my argument man 👍

While the 21st century has its flaws, we are significantly more advanced in every aspect than the desert-dwelling illiterates of the 7th century. Mohammed is only acknowledged that way by Muslims, and is regarded as a pedophilic and schizophrenic illiterate human by others. Can you show me an instance where the US Supreme Court has made such an allusion? Are you suggesting that child marriage should be legal? Because in our modern world, the act is illegal.

Yes, the Caste system in Hinduism exists and has its own problems, but we are not talking about Hinduism. We are talking about the cruel and immoral practices of Islamic beliefs.

[Asker]

Very well, being ignorant and lacking research and knowledge and still a cussing baseless allegations.

There you go so that you can decrease you ignorance to an extent,

https.//www. google. com/amp/s/stepfeed. com/amp/the-us-supreme-court-sees-prophet-muhammad-as-one-of-the-greatest-lawgivers-9857

Copy the link and remove the dot after https and add ':' instead.

And no, I'm in no way suggesting child marriage should be legal. There are already different ages of consent worldwide, Aisha was an exception of reaching her maturity and puberty early as the marriage is only permissible according Quran after that age.

If Islam has cruel laws then protecting non Muslims in Muslims lands, giving respect to slaves, giving charity to others, forgiving loans etc are cruel too?

[Opinion Owner]

I see you are still attempting to strawman my argument, and yet continue to fail. Congrats 👍

I have read the article, and am unfamiliar with the source, so it's difficult to say how true the statements are, but if we go by the assumption that that is valid, it still stands: "In fact, the U. S. Supreme Court considers Prophet Muhammad to be one of the 18 greatest lawgivers in history, along with the likes of the ancient Egyptian ruler Menes, the Prophet Moses, Hammurabi, Confucius, Napoleon, and John Marshall."

He is one of the contributors to the legal system, not THE greatest, and is remembered alongside others of equal stature. There you go, so you can decrease your ignorance to an extent.

I did not say that Islam was all bad, as you again try to strawman my argument... Come on man. Islam has bad practices, immoral acts that are congratulated and allowed. There are some good acts, but those are overshadowed by the bad. If I kill someone just because I want to but then donate all my money to charity, does that make me a good person?

Again... We are not talking about other countries or religions, we are talking about the religion of Islam and the beliefs associated with it.

[Asker]

Well that's a very kind way to accept your ignorance. Look up the greatest man to ever exist. It'd still be Muhammad and this survey was done by a Christian himself.

You can still look up at other sources for the same news and you will indeed be convinced.

Killing in Islam was allowed when someone attacked your land or tried to change the message of the prophet.

Tell me anything written in quran that suggests a bad act and don't cherry pick it. Let's see what you have got.

[Opinion Owner]

That's a great excuse man. Good job! ☺️

Surveys aren't nonbiased sources, nor do they represent a whole.

I'm not interested in having a quoting match with you when you fail to recognize basic logical fallacies. Try again later 🥱

As I've already state multiple times now, there are bad things in Islam that do not align with modern moral or legal ideas. If you want an answer to your question, simply read my first answer. Saying "they're bad too" does nothing to make your religion look any better or less condemnable.

[Asker]

Awww you didn't even try. Better luck next time.

Aww, you didn't even try, better luck next time.

[Boromir]

They just look for reasons to blame something they don’t like / hate. They could not care less if other religions had similar issues, those don’t further their cause.

Non-Christians will make fun of a whole religion believing in an immaculate conception. There’s something for all if you don’t like a certain religion, it was never about objective facts.

[OfDeath]

Out of sight is out of mind. Hindus simply are not in the spotlight like muslims are. Islamic terrorist organizations like the taliban have been responsible for some of the worst and most recent fatal attacks and in famous countries like the U. K, France and the United States. India too.

Whereas Hindus are only militant in south asia and haven't really encroached upon western civilization in the same way.

The fact someone else did something bad is also an invalid reason to dismiss the actions of another. That's deflection.

[TwoToTooTutu2]

1st are the reverberations of Catholic Propaganda from the Middle Ages. 2nd Islam exists on the western side of the world and Islamic terror is front and center. Radical Hindu Terrorists have next to no presence in any country that the West cares about.

[Anonymous]

We don’t look down on that.
we know he’s second wife was young because, at that time that age was legal.
and her dad was about to die because of health but wanted to see his daughters marriage

[Opinion Owner]

Even search about legal age to marry in Rome !!

[Opinion Owner]

We even know he had 11 wives.

[Asker]

Their scriptures tell her age from 9 to 19. But people only stick at 9. Even on top of that, Quran says that a girl is eligible to marry when she is well into her puberty and old enough to handle laws and rules related to marriage under Sharia. The same hadiths which suggest her age being 9 also tell that she was wise for her age.

[Asker]

All his wives were widows, freed from slavery when they conquered lands and he's recognised by the greatest law maker to exist even by USA supreme Court. So why do people question, look down upon so discriminately and excessively with disrespect? Every wife of his had a stroy and his laws first gave women to have a right to say that she accepts the marriage.

[Opinion Owner]

1 was even given by Rome

[Opinion Owner]

She was 9 yr old. Everyone knows that.

Question is : you want to kill people kids and women based on their beliefs.

And he was not the only prophet we have. Lol

[Asker]

'you want to kill people kids and women based on their beliefs'

Do you even know the rules of war under Islam? Or do you want me to quote them?

Indeed 'Muslims' have shed bloods of innocents under the name of Islam, but why not point out others then too? Hindus consider everyone else to be 'mlechhans'. Hitler was a Christian. Colonizers were Christians.

[Opinion Owner]

In Quran it’s written in stores. But people read it as sentences. read

[Opinion Owner]

But we don’t 100% follow what’s written because it’s 21 century.

[Opinion Owner]

Didn’t christen do same under Catholic Church knights.
Stop judging other.

Worry of your own sins

[Asker]

Worrying for your own sins and correcting yourself is the greatest jihad told by the prophet. Indeed Muslims have done their share of wrongdoings, no denying in that. Even for wrongdoings of Catholic people, I would never insult Christ.

My post was only about the selected hatred against Islam based on what 'Muslims' did.

[Opinion Owner]

So for what they did you want to kill of them
Good for you

[Asker]

Kill who?

[Opinion Owner]

Every Muslim?

[Asker]

If one were to be killing every wrong doer under sharia that way for killing innocents, that'd include vast number of 'Muslims', 'Christians' and people belonging to other religions too, including atheists.

[Opinion Owner]

Stop blabling and go to sleep

[Asker]

You didn't have any logical thing to say so could just leave it here, you know. Why try to be so petty?

[Anonymous]

Cause prophet was a human while all others are called imoortal Gods whose existence is not proven

[Asker]

But if we're going to look at religion according how people who claim to belong to a specific religion act, then why not look at the religion?

[ChrisMaster69]

Muslim grooming gangs is one of reasons

[Asker]

What is it about? Tell me more about it.

[ChrisMaster69]

I live in the UK, we know, every town and city knows

[Asker]

You live in UK and the same UK site of Britannica knows and shows Islam completely opposite to what has been alleged against it.

[ChrisMaster69]

Books print stuff people on the street know how it is

[Asker]

Just like the cleansing of Jews by hitler? Random bombing on Afghanistan? Invasion in Iraq by USA?

[ChrisMaster69]

Yeah chopping peoples heads off in the street, knife attacks killing people in cafes

That shit

[Asker]

So only Muslims have been doing that? Have you even read who Kharijites are? How the prophet had already warned against extremism?

People still don't mock Jews, Christians and Hindus so heavily because of their bad deeds directly insulting their faith.

[ChrisMaster69]

Don’t give a shit really
They identify who they are, the rest is excuses.

[Asker]

When Muslims condemn them, point out their flaws through their religion, you people still generalise them.

So why cry about terrorism when some weak minds lose their shit getting tired of your generalisations and kill others blindly while 'not giving a shit'?

[ChrisMaster69]

The irony

you people still generalise them.

[ManHater]

Because only in islam can you rape little girls.

[Asker]

In Hinduism, God raped his own daughter, Ram's mother had sex with a horse. And read the description more.
