Saudi Arabia: 80-year-old man marries 11-year-old girl

"There is no law that prohibits the marriage of a girl under 18," says the randy old goat, and he's right. After all, Muhammad did it:

"The Prophet wrote the (marriage contract) with 'Aisha while she was six years old and consummated his marriage with her while she was nine years old and she remained with him for nine years (i.e. till his death)." -- Bukhari 7.62.88

It seems likely that this is the same case as the one we reported about here, although it could conceivably be a similar but different case of child marriage. "Saudi activists outraged as man marries 11 yr old," from Al-Arabiya, January 17 (thanks to Sr. Soph):

DUBAI (Al Arabiya) News of a Saudi octogenarian marrying an eleven-year-old girl has outraged human rights activists amid calls on the government to regulate the marriage of underage girls, local media reported Saturday.

The Saudi National Human Rights Commission formed a committee to investigate the marriage, which activists consider a flagrant violation of human and children rights, the Saudi newspaper al-Riyadh said.

The marriage registrar, who was widely criticized since he agreed to seal the marriage contract knowing the girl's age, absolved himself of any blame.

"There is no law that prohibits the marriage of a girl under 18," he told the paper. "Plus, I summoned the girl and she declared her consent and signed the contract."...

The father, who took 85,000 riyals (more than $22,000) in dowry, defended his decision to marry off his 11-year-old daughter even though his wife vehemently objected.

"I don't care about her age," he told the paper. "Her health and her body build make her fit for marriage. I also don't care what her mother thinks."

Of course not. Why should he?

The father added that marriage at such an early age has been a custom in the Saudi society for a very long time and that he saw no reason why it should be a problem now.

"This is a very old custom and there is nothing wrong with it whether religiously or socially."...

As for the bride, she just called for help as she burst into tears.

"Save me. I don't want him," she cried.

Would someone in the Muhammedan section remind me, in detail, of the ways in which Islam elevates women?

Of course, the comments section on this article in AL Arabiya are littered with the intellectual wreckage of anti-Semitism, claiming that the Talmud allows pedophilia. Leave it to Muslims, when faced with a real-life story of pedophilia allowed in a Muslim land, to lash out and project the same crimes onto Jews.

I didn't know Larry King was a Muslim?

Oh yeah, sorry, I forgot, That wasn't Larry. Larry only set up his wife's sister in a Love Shack at the Beverly Hilton for a year, a $160,000 car, and all expenses paid lifestyle of the rich and famous for the past year.

He may want to convert. Bad joke, but I couldn't resist.

But seriously, parents that sell off their daughters into matrimony with an 80 yr old are despicable. In the Saudi culture where women are virtual chattel, it amounts to no less than sexual slavery.

Let's hope the old bastard chokes on his viagra.

As for the CHILD'S father, anti-freeze is sweet, so mix it in his tea.

muslims are SICK! this is the 21st freakin century! i'm outraged. this poor girl will have a life as nothing more than a baby machine. cranking out kid after kid, which they can't even afford. the taxpayers of non-muslim countries will be paying for this baby machine jihad, as usual. it's disgusting!

"Plus, I summoned the girl and she declared her consent ..."

"Save me. I don't want him," she cried.

This is known as Islamic consent.

To say that the followers of Islam are sick and perverted is an understatement.

They are vile, lecherous, savage barbarians lusting after young children, primarily girls.
Although these savages also have been known to lust after young boys,not for marriage of course that would be against Islamic law.

It is a well establiseh fact that homosexuality has always been prevelant in Islam.

Back to the topic at hand.

The following is an important link where a Muslim cleric from Saudi Arabia
expounds on child brides.

Observe how he uses the alleged prophet, Mohammed, a pedophile child molesting, child raping barbarian, as quote "the model we follow".

This Islamic Fascist also states that when Mohammed married Aisha (age 6),
Mohammed waited until she was 9 to rape her.How merciful and compassionate the Prophet was.

I wonder what the "defenders of Islam" would say?

People of this sort only understand and only respect one thing.

And it really is just that simple.

Fulfilling their great desire and wish to be united with ALLAH,
who is the Devil himself, and the alleged 72 virgins who are in
reality 72 homosexuals on viagra, would be the only just and
proper thing to do.

Please excuse the double post.

Everytime I read an article like this I want to pick a gun and go Mool hunting. Its all been said by others, this sick "religion" is suitable for its adherents as they are nothing more than animals - no, I take that back, animals are more empathetic. It is disgusting and if they ever get the chance to take over the west this is what they would do to our women (obviously as concubines). I hate the buggers.

I have said it before (somewhere) and will say it again. Attack the Koran. Attack it with argument, with comedy, and with cartoons. Shine light on its dark teachings and ridiculous ideas. Make the old book an object of scorn and a laughing stock.

The head of Catholicism is the Pope, but the head of Islam is the Koran. Cut off the head.

Parents Evening at her school (should she be allowed to attend one) would prove highly entertaining.

"I'm sorry your parents couldn't make it, so this must be your great great grandfather ?"
No, don't be silly Miss, it's my Husband !

"Well what happened to your parents my child ?"
Oh i haven't seen them since they sold me.

"Look, could you just wheel your spouse into the corner of the room as he is beginning to smell."
Yes Miss.

"Let us pray for enlightenment."
It' a bit late for that Miss.

Loud noise in backgrond as bomb goes off !

What wrong with this?this man is just doing what his prophet did 14 centuries before.muhammad had sex with a nine year old girl.He was a pedophile,so the problem is not a 80 year old man who married a 11 year old girl but the teaching of a "prophet" who was insane..

Quote: "This is a very old custom and there is nothing wrong with it whether religiously or socially."...

However, we don’t live in the barbaric seventh century anymore. Today, civilization demands that human dignity, moral, ethics, and freedom has become an indispensable foundation of all religious and social principles around the world.

This is your brain........

This is your brain on Islam.......

What in the hell is this 80 year old fool going to do with a CHILD as a bride? Is he some kind of idiot or what? I can't believe that this so-called "religion of peace" could enforce something like this. This is nothing but pure and clear slavery and rape - period!

I agree with the post from John Billings - ATTACK THE KORAN! Cut the head off of the snake and watch what happens.

I just can not see this life style in the USA, no matter what they are trying to proclaim. With all of the laws, rights and priviledges we are FREE to exercise in this country, the Islamic life style wouldn't even make it on a ballot.

Hopefully this 80 year old fool will kick the bucket after attempting to get an errection. Then she will be free - somewhat.

What about Pedophiles, Homosexuals & Lesbians? Do you agree that they are perverted lifestyles, just like those who marry Child brides?

PEDOPHILE/HOMOSEXUALS are driving down the Age of Consent all over the world. It is 12 in Holland. So stop BULLSHITTING & realise that we in Europe & America have our own PERVERTS, who are a law unto themselves.

I BELIEVE SODOMITES ARE HANDICAPPED! THEY ARE DIRECTIONALLY CHALLENGED!! THEY DO THINGS ARSE-WAYS!!!

How do you say dirty old man in Arabic?

Her "father" and the pervert she's marrying are disgusting. I hope they both die long slow painful deaths. Not only is it just morally sickening for what they are doing to her now... but this 80 yr old could die anytime now... leaving this poor raped 11 yr old a widow in a society that will shun her since she is no longer a virgin. Essentially, her life is pretty much over... no wait, she was born a muslim. Her life was over from the minute she was born as she is just a worthless girl. My God, I can't wait for the day when this religion is seen for what it is (nothing but a sickening violation of humanity and all that is good) and abolished.

The point is not whether all countries have their perverts and lowlifes.

Certainly all do.

The point is whether or not it is permitted and approved by the local religion and clerics -- which one infers would relax normal human inhibitions against such things.

This is your brain........

This is your brain on Islam.......

Say no to marriage, faith, liars, and shysters.

Jim Foster, Qhàràbs are Shemits.

joeblough, whether or not = whether or not whether.

Molly and Christian Soldier, will ye say the same for the other two sibling religions? Both of their Gods are also rapists.

Leonardo, paidofilia is Hellènic for kid-friendship and homo is Latin for [hu]man. The wriht words are paiderasty and idesexual. Ageism is a blind perversion and is not your friend.

Mayme, privileges.
