===Les batailles de Badr et de Uhud===
===Les batailles de Badr et de Uhud===


This apologetic argument aims to make the claim that Aisha was at the Battles of Badr and Uhud, and that since standard practice at the time disallowed anyone under 15 from joining the battlefield, she could not have been younger than this.  
Cet argument apologétique vise à revendiquer qu’Aicha était aux batailles de Badr et d’Uhud, et que comme à l’époque, la pratique courante interdisait à quiconque de moins de 15 ans de rejoindre le champ de bataille, elle ne pouvait pas être plus jeune que cela.  


However, there are no sources that can be found mentioning Aisha's participation in the Battle of Badr. A few hadiths highlight Aisha's involvement in the Battle of Uhud, but only to the extent that she was not involved in the battlefield and merely carrying water skins to the combatants.<ref>Narrated Anas: On the day (of the battle) of Uhad when (some) people retreated and left the Prophet, I saw 'Aisha bint Abu Bakr and Um Sulaim, with their robes tucked up so that the bangles around their ankles were visible hurrying with their water skins (in another narration it is said, "carrying the water skins on their backs"). Then they would pour the water in the mouths of the people, and return to fill the water skins again and came back again to pour water in the mouths of the people.<br>{{Bukhari|4|52|131}}</ref> Women and young children were allowed to perform such functions during battles.<ref>The women and young children went on the battlefield after the battle and gave water to the wounded Muslims and finished off the enemy wounded.  
Cependant, aucune source ne mentionne la participation d’Aicha à la bataille de Badr. Quelques hadiths mettent en évidence l’implication d’Aicha dans la bataille d’Uhud, mais seulement dans la mesure où elle n’était pas impliquée sur le champ de bataille et ne transportait simplement que des outres d’eau aux combattants.<ref>Rapporté par Anas : Le jour (de la bataille) d'Uhud, quand (certaines) personnes se sont repliées et ont laissées le Prophète, j'ai vu Aicha bint Abu Bakr et Um Sulaim, avec leurs robes retroussées de sorte que les bracelets autour de leurs chevilles étaient visibles se précipitant avec leurs outres d’eau (dans une autre version, il est dit : "portant les outres d'eau sur le dos"). Ensuite, elles versaient l’eau dans la bouche des gens, puis revenaient remplir à nouveau les outres d’eau et retournaient verser de l’eau dans la bouche des gens.<br>{{Bukhari|4|52|131}}</ref> Les femmes et les jeunes enfants étaient autorisés à exercer ces fonctions pendant les batailles.<ref>Les femmes et les jeunes enfants sont allés sur le champ de bataille après la bataille et ont donné de l’eau aux musulmans blessés et ont achevé les ennemis blessés.

Shaykh Haddad responds to this apologetic argument:
Cheikh Haddad répond à cet argument apologétique :


{{Quote|<ref name="Haddad" />|First, the prohibition applied to combatants. It applied neither to non-combatant boys nor to non-combatant girls and women. Second, `A'isha did not participate in Badr at all but bade farewell to the combatants as they were leaving Madina, as narrated by Muslim in his Sahih. On the day of Uhud (year 3), Anas, at the time only twelve or thirteen years old, reports seeing an eleven-year old `A'isha and his mother Umm Sulaym having tied up their dresses and carrying water skins back and forth to the combatants, as narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim.}}
{{Quote|<ref name="Haddad" />|Premièrement, l’interdiction s’appliquait aux combattants. Elle ne s’appliquait ni aux garçons non combattants ni aux filles et aux femmes non combattantes. Deuxièmement, Aicha n’a pas du tout participé à Badr mais a fait ses adieux aux combattants alors qu’ils quittaient Médine, comme l’a rapporté Muslim dans son Sahih. Le jour d'Uhud (l’an 3), Anas, alors âgé de seulement douze ou treize ans, rapporte avoir vu une Aicha de onze ans et sa mère Umm Sulaym avoir noué leurs robes et faire des aller-retours entre les combattants pour leur transporter des outres d'eau, comme le rapportent al-Bukhari et Muslim.}}


===Age of Asma===

One [[Sahih#Da'if|da'if]] (weak) hadith narrated from al-Zinad and recorded in the works of some medieval scholars, including al-Dhahabi,<ref>al-Dhahabi. "Siyar a`lam al-nubala'". IslamWeb. Retrieved 3 September 2018. <q>قال عبد الرحمن بن أبي الزناد : كانت أسماء أكبر من عائشة بعشر" (Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi al-Zunad said: Asma was older than Aisha by ten years.)</q></ref> states that Aisha's older sister Asma was ten years older than her. This has been combined with improbable information about Asma being 100 years old at the time of her death in 73 AH to calculate that Aisha was eighteen or nineteen at the time of her marriage consummation (1 AH or 2 AH - (73 - 100) - 10).
