While the world continues to ignore human rights abuses committed in the name of Islam, mainstream Islamic clerics in countries that implement Sharia certainly do not.
With reference to the practice of child marriage, the Washington Times reports:
The problems are not just cultural. The U.N. World Health Organization notes that the leading causes of death for females ages 15 to 19 are linked to pregnancy and childbirth. Babies born to girls younger than 18 are at higher risks of death and poor development, the WHO report….
“I will never support any legislation that is against the tenets of Islam,” said Ali Muhammad Khan, minister of state for parliamentary affairs. “Pakistan is an Islamic country, and no such law can be passed here even if it costs me my ministry or my seat [in Parliament].”
Qibla Ayaz, chairman of Pakistan’s Council of Islamic Ideology, said, “In 1961, the minimum age for marriage was set to 16, which was un-Islamic. It will be going again against the Shariah [Islamic law] if the age of marriage is changed to 18.”
The marriage of children in Islam is in accord with Islamic doctrine and the example of Muhammad’s marriage to the six-year-old Aisha.
Absurdly, “Pakistan is also a signatory to international agreements such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child that require enforcement of laws to prevent child marriage.” There are, however, efforts being made by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf ruling party to raise the legal age of marriage for girls. Those efforts are being met with stiff resistance from Pakistan’s National Assembly Standing Committee on Law and Justice.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, who supports Pakistan’s infamous Islamic blasphemy law, has been silent about the issue.
Lahore child advocate Rubina Saigol made the case that the Khan government is “an extremely, conservative, right-wing one” and that “every other day we hear of underage girls being married or Hindu girls’ abduction [for marriage], but it doesn’t bother the government much.”
It “doesn’t bother” the Pakistani government because both child marriage and the seizure of infidel girls (usually Hindus) are in accord with Sharia (Qur’an 4:3, 4:24, 33:50).
“Muslim conservatives defend practice of child brides in Pakistan as ‘tenets of Islam,'” by Naila Inayat, Washington Times, August 29, 2019:
…With an estimated 1,909,000 children currently married, Pakistan has the sixth-highest rate of child marriage in the world, according to UNICEF.The problems are not just cultural. The U.N. World Health Organization notes that the leading causes of death for females ages 15 to 19 are linked to pregnancy and childbirth. Babies born to girls younger than 18 are at higher risks of death and poor development, the WHO report said…..
Pakistani law sets the minimum marriage age at 16 for girls and 18 for boys. Activists say the age must be raised and the law better enforced. Pakistan is also a signatory to international agreements such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child that require enforcement of laws to prevent child marriage.
In May, the ruling party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party introduced a bill in the legislature to amend the Child Marriage Restraint Act of 1929 to set the marriageable age for girls at 18. It would impose a fine and possible imprisonment for the groom and those involved in facilitating the marriage, including parents, marriage brokers and the religious authorities who marry the couple.
Pakistan’s National Assembly Standing Committee on Law and Justice last week rejected such legislation. Opponents said it violated religious tenets.
“I will never support any legislation that is against the tenets of Islam,” said Ali Muhammad Khan, minister of state for parliamentary affairs. “Pakistan is an Islamic country, and no such law can be passed here even if it costs me my ministry or my seat [in Parliament].”
Qibla Ayaz, chairman of Pakistan’s Council of Islamic Ideology, said, “In 1961, the minimum age for marriage was set to 16, which was un-Islamic. It will be going again against the Shariah [Islamic law] if the age of marriage is changed to 18.”
As it has with all other attempts to amend the marriageable age for girls, the council warned that any legislation to ban child marriage would lead to “complications.” It asked instead for an awareness campaign to discourage the practice….

2nd, a pedophile does not do a marriage contract, and then consummate the marriage a full 3 years later.. 3rd, child marriage has existed for millenia, and is still practiced today. Now, contrast this with your immoral, abominable societies which push homosexuality, illegitimate bastard babies out of wedlock, unwed teenage whores, and effeminate men with colored hair? your societies have produced nothing superior to Islam, its prophets that include jesus, or it’s fair and orderly society. Islam will rule the world within 30 years…tops, Allah u akbar, and that will be a glorious day for america!
Mario Alexis Portella says
Difference Sabri is that we don’t justify such sexual crimminality! Islam does since the Prophet Muhammad was a pedophile in addition to killing and subjugating women! Prophet Muhammad was also a homosexual.
Related by Al-Tabarani and it’s authentication is fully validated by Islamic scholars.
He (the Prophet) lift up his (al Hassan’s) shirt and kissed his (little) penis..”
روى أنه صلى الله عليه و سلم قبل زبيبة الحسن أو الحسين
He (the prophet) kissed the (little) penis of al Hassan or al Husein
رأيت النبي صلى الله عليه و سلم فرج ما بين فخذي الحسين و قبل زبيبته
He (the prophet) put Husein’s legs apart and kissed his (little) penis
Muhammad would also invite young boys to see him wash his penis and buttocks:
Narrated Anas bin Malik:
Whenever Allah’s Apostle went to answer the call of nature, I along with another boy used to accompany him with a tumbler full of water. (Hisham commented, “So that he might wash his private parts with it.”) (Sahih Al-Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 4, Number 152; see also Numbers 153-154

The Great prophet?who FAILED the Poison Test thus proving himself a FALSE prophet?:
islam>the religion of PEACE?
muhammed the “prophet”:the PERFECT man?
The “PERFECT” koran{see YT “scientific mistakes in the quran”} a book that has so many errors in it cannot be perfect.In fact,according to allah’s own criterion of k4:82,any errors in the koran would show it cannot come from God{as allah is perfect} and lo and behold..the koran is FULL OF ERRORS showing us that allah’s word is NOT perfect meaning the koran and allah are false.
Can the islamic mind understand that?
Nope.

islam’s cross-dressing “holy” man?
“The revelation does not come to me when I am in the garment of any woman except Aisha”

Did muhammed wear lipstick and tights to hide his glistening white thighs too when he was channeling his Al Lah,the god with one leg ,two right hands and three pagan godess daughters in that cave with conveniently NO WITNESSES?

In other words, ignore the sacralized child rape in Islam–and the fact that thousands of children in Dar-al-Islam are still suffering *today* from the “Prophet” having been a pedophile, sionce he is considered the perfect model for all Muslims.
More:
First off Khadijah was the prophet Muhammad’s, peace be upon him, most favorite and revered wife…and she was 15 years older then him!!!..you islamophobic idiots!!
………………………….
Yes, Khadija was an actual adult–but this does not mean that little Aisha was.
And Khadijah was *not* Muhammed’s favorite wife–he regularly said that his child bride Aisha was.
More:
2nd, a pedophile does not do a marriage contract, and then consummate the marriage a full 3 years later..
………………………….
What does this mean–that we are supposed to cheer that Muhammed didn’t rape this little child at six–but waited until she was nine? *Ugh*. Yes, raping a nine-year-old child is pedophilia.
More:
3rd, child marriage has existed for millenia, and is still practiced today.
………………………….
All sorts of hideous things have existed for millenia–slavery, beheadings, child rape.
That they are still practiced today–mostly by Muslims–is a source of shame, not an excuse to continue acting like savages.
More:
Now, contrast this with your immoral, abominable societies which push homosexuality, illegitimate bastard babies out of wedlock, unwed teenage whores, and effeminate men with colored hair?
………………………….
This is how Muslims think–men dying their hair is immoral, but raping children is perfectly Halal. *Ugh*.
More:
your societies have produced nothing superior to Islam,
………………………….
This is only true if you consider pedophilia and stoning rape victims to death to be superior to democracy, freedom, innovation, education, and equality.
More:
its prophets that include jesus, or it’s fair and orderly society. Islam will rule the world within 30 years…tops, Allah u akbar, and that will be a glorious day for america!
………………………….
Of course, the purpose of the Muslim “Jesus”–really, “prophet Isa”–is primarily to slaughter Christians in the last days. This dark figure has *nothing* to do with the Savior of the Gospels.
And Islam is only “fair and orderly” if you enjoy abusing small children, beating women, amputating the limbs of petty thieves, persecuting unbelievers, keeping sex slaves, and stoning rape victims to death. But then, these must be Sabri. S.’s favorite things. And he wants to see this savagery imposed on us, as well.

Yeah. Two things can be true at once. One can be married to an adult AND be a pedophile. Happens all the time. It’s still a crime. And no, we could concentrate on other facts – like Mohammed slaughtering Jewish people. Or executing a poet for a dissenting opinion. I mean, we could go on. But that’s ok. You stay in your part of the world and leave civilization alone. Marry your first cousins (or sisters, like Ilhan Omar) and breed yourselves into freakish extinction. That’s your call.
Mr. Cohen says
First-cousin marriages occur often in Muslim nations like Pakistan.
Apparently, nobody has told them that this can cause genetic birth defects.
mortimer says
Muslims are so mesmerized by their idolization of Mohammed, that they cannot condemn pedophilia or forced child marriage or the hideously-cruel OBSTETRIC FISTULAE that child marriage inevitably causes in thousands of cases every year in the Islamic world.
To condemn those health concerns would be a condemnation of Mohammed and they would be forced to abandon the idolization of Mohammed.
A girl’s small body is not yet big enough for child birth. Islamic child marriage should be banned and those in child marriages pr cousin marriage should not be permitted to immigrate in civilized countries.
We don’t need Islam’s horrible health problems to burden our already over-burdened health care programs.
We don’t want more Islamic pedophilia either.
Mohammed was undoubtedly a pedophile and this should be exposed and condemned. Muslims are as a result of Mohammed’s example some of the greatest perpetrators of pedophilia worldwide.

CogitoErgoSum says
As I’ve mentioned in previous comments the constitution of Pakistan has a provision (Part IX) that all laws will be in compliance with the injunctions of Islam as laid down in the Quran and Sunnah. However, the same constitution has a provision (Part II, Chapter 1, article 21) that no person shall be compelled to pay a special tax with the proceeds to be spent for the propagation or maintenance of any religion other than his own.
How can Pakistan forbid collection of the Jizya which is demanded by Allah per Quran 9:29 and remain in conformity with the Quran? If Pakistan has forbidden one injunction of the Quran why is it not allowable to forbid another that relates to child marriage? Could someone familiar with Pakistani law please explain?
Angemon says
Let’s call a spade a spade – it’s not “child marriage”, it’s “marrying underage girls to fully grown males”. Out of curiosity, the other five are, from highest to lowest, India (15,509,000), Bangladesh (4,451,000), Nigeria (3,538,000), Brazil (3,034,000) and Ethiopia (2,104,000). And the Washington Times is wrong: Pakistan is the sixth in absolute numbers, not in rate.

Walter Sieruk says
Male Muslim marriage of an adult man to a young girl who is really only a child of common in the world of Islam. One of the “reasons” for this female child abuse in Islam is because of the corrupt and perverse wickedness in the hearts of men. This is seen and described in the Bible with reads “The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; who can know it?” Jeremiah 17:9. [N.K.J.V.]
Furthermore, another “reason” girl/child marriages occur with middle aged and even old men is because the founder and prophet of Islam Muhammad married a child. Muslims throughout history as well as in current times actually view Muhammad as a “perfect man” and a “great example for them to follow.”
This well might prove the old saying to be true .The saying is that “Evil is always looking for an excuse.”
It’s also wise to remember prophet Muhammad did likewise engaged in brutal, ruthless murderous warfare. As do Muslim today such as the jihadist Muslim of ISIS, al Qaeda, Hezbollah Hamas and so forth. Many that old saying, just sited above, also explains the excuse for Muslim terrorism in the world today.
Jesus Himself Taught “By their fruits you will know them.” Matthew 7:20. Which might explain the vile child “marriage” of Muhammad and his violent and deadly behavior .Likewise also explains the twenty- first century Muslims who in child marriages and blood and murderous violence of Islam .As they see the prophet Muhammad d as their example of who to follow.
With all this about the fruits of Islam along with fruits history reveals about the life of the prophet of Islam, Muhammad .It thus further appropriate to make known that it might be in keeping with teaching of Jesus that Muhammad could well have been an actual prophet . Nevertheless the very most important thing to understand is the Muhammad was not a prophet send by God . Instead Muhammad was a lying deceptive false prophet send by Satan to start a false religion to lead many people astray.
For Jesus taught “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.” Matthew 7:15.
