The sira tradition is very explicit about the fact that Muhammad [[Aisha's Age|married Aisha when she was six, and consummated the marriage when she was nine.]] As Muhammad is [[Uswa Hasana|"al-insaan al-kaamil"]], this action of his has been taken by the scholars to be an example for all of mankind, and have thus decreed that such marriages are lawful for all believers. Both the Qur'an and the hadith contain regulations about when believers may have sex with underage wives who have not yet had their menses, furthor solidifying the halaal nature of the practice of consummating marriages with extremely young girls and older men. | |||
