Mohammad's pedophilia - Part 2

Common responses from Muslims on Aisha

1. Ages are wrong for any number of reasons usually that the Hadith are unreliable.

Fact: The Hadith I quoted are key to Islam and are considered part of the Sunnah accepted by all Muslims.

2. She was at puberty already

Fact: You read her own words - she was playing with dolls when she entered Mohammad's house as a bride. You can also see the narrator say that dolls were allowed only for girls before puberty

3.
People matured at a faster rate in that region.

Fact: Average age for the first period is ~13 years, and it barely changes around the world.

4. Aisha's parents agreed with her marrage

Fact: Her father objected:
Sahih Bukhari 7.18
Narrated 'Ursa:
The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."
