Accusation No.2

“A Pedophile”

Ali Sina’s problem here isn’t with the Holy Prophet (S), but infact it is with Aisha (R). The reasons why this accusation is itself
lame is because:

1)      Back then, it was perfectly normal for a girl at young age to marry. We know this because before Aisha was married to
the Holy Prophet (S), she was engaged to someone else

2)      Who are we to tell Aisha now what is right for her and what is wrong for her? Aisha (R) remained all her life married to
the Holy Prophet (S), and even when she was given the chance to divorce the Holy Prophet (S), she did not divorce him! A
case like this shows that both of them loved each other

3)      Noone objected to Aisha’s marriage with the Holy Prophet (S), infact everyone was happy! It seems the only person who
has a problem, is Ali Sina and his crowd.

4)      It was Aisha’s parents who approved of this marriage. They deemed it good to marry their daughter to the Holy Prophet
(S), and indeed they did a great thing, as Aisha grew up to be a great scholar of Islam!

5)      When one looks up the definition of a “pedophile”, you will find that pedophiles have: “"Low self esteem. Many
pedophiles, although by no means all, do not have a great sense of capacity for adopting a sexual demeanor towards adults
or those of their own age or older. They feel unhappy and fearful at the prospect of sexual behaviour with adults and
hence turn to children due to the fact that they are unable to have the strength of personality to seek adults for sexual
demeanor. When considering treatment therefore it is important to establish and develop a higher sense of self-esteem in
such individuals." (Source). Obviously that is not the case with the Holy Prophet (S), as his other wives were older then Aisha,
two of his wives were older then him, specifically Sauda (R) and Khadijah (R).

6)      If the Holy Prophet (S) was a pedophile (Astaghfirullah), then one must ask why didn’t he consummate his marriage with
Aisha right there and then when Aisha (R) was six years old? Infact, this source says: "Lack of impulse control. Many
pedophiles find it extremely difficult to deal with the impulsive nature which inclines them towards sexual behaviour to children.
They simply cannot control their need for engaging children in sexual practices. They might be said to suffer from an
obsessive-compulsive condition. Here again treatment would involve developing better impulse control and of course
redirecting the sexual inclinations." (Source, same as above). Thus, if the Holy Prophet (S) was a “pedophile”, according to the
definition of a pedophile, he would have no control over his sexual desire. On the contrary, the Holy Prophet (S) waited 3
years after the marriage contract to consummate his marriage with Aisha.

7)      Can we honestly say Aisha (R) would’ve remained with the Holy Prophet (S) after she was allegedly “molested”? We
must remember that Aisha (R) was very wise, and a great orator and she was quick to comment when she saw something
wrong. If she was in any way, shape or form “molested” by the Holy Prophet (S), then she would’ve never remained married to
him!

8)      The women who spoke to Aisha (R) when she was marrying the Holy Prophet (S) were happy for Aisha. When she
married the Holy Prophet (S), they praised her, they didn’t cry for her, or pity her for marrying a person who is, allegedly, as Ali
Sina claims a “pedophile” (Astaghfirullah!).

9)      Even the Non-Muslims who were quick to yell and shout when they saw something they didn’t like in Islam didn’t think
anything was wrong with this marriage. After all, how can they say this marriage was wrong, when in the Arab culture it is
normal for a girl at a young age to marry?

10)   Do we honestly think if Aisha (R) were alive today, she would support people like Ali Sina, who claim she was molested,
and that her husband was a “pedophile”??

Lastly, we end this section with some quotes from Aisha (R):

Sahih Al-Bukhari

Volume 1, Book 6, Number 299:

Narrated 'Abdur-Rahman bin Al-Aswad:

(on the authority of his father) 'Aisha said: "Whenever Allah's Apostle wanted to fondle anyone of us during her periods
(menses), he used to order her to put on an Izar and start fondling her." 'Aisha added, "None of you could control his
sexual desires as the Prophet could."

Sahih Muslim

Book 006, Number 2439:

'A'isha (Allah be pleased with her) reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) used to kiss (his wives) while fasting
and embraced (them) while fasting; but he had the greatest mastery over his desire among you.

Thus, according to the words of our Mother Aisha (R), the Holy Prophet (S) had the greatest control over his desire amongst
the people. Thus, Aisha (R) herself has refuted the Christian missionaries, and anti-Islamic haters like Ali Sina with these
quotes of hers!
