===Khadijah's Age===
===Khadijah's Age===


The discussion about [[Khadijah]]’s age does not arouse the type of defensiveness and [[Responses to Apologetics: Muhammad and Aisha|imaginative apologetics]] that surrounds the discussion of Aisha’s age. Nobody denies that Khadijah married Muhammad as a very willing adult. Nevertheless, the traditional view of her age is probably wrong.
