[Amby 490]

Call it marriage, Islamic style.

Saudi marriage officiant Dr. Ahmad al-Mu’bi told Lebanese television viewers last week that it’s permissible for girls as young as 1 to marry — as long as sex is postponed.

Al-Mu’bi’s remarkable comments also included an explanation that “there is no minimal age for entering marriage.â€

“You can have a marriage contract even with a 1-year-old girl, not to mention a girl of 9, 7 or 8,†he said. “But is the girl ready for sex or not?†What is the appropriate age for sex for the first time? This varies according to environment and tradition,†al-Mu’bi said.

Are you serious? What do you not see wrong with this picture? How about we let your 1 year old child be a Saudi bride? Wonder what you would think then?

For Muhammad he married Aisha at 6 years and consummated at 9. So it doesn't look good.
