Saudi senior-most cleric: An Injustice NOT to Marry 10-Year-Old Girls...

Saudi Arabia's senior-most cleric said girls as young as 10 years old can be married, local media reported on Wednesday.The powerful Grand Mufti Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh said in a speech late on Monday that Islamic Sharia law allows the practice of pre-teen girls getting married, and that critics of the practice were doing the girls "an injustice," reports said.


"We hear often in the media about the marriage of minors. We must know that Sharia law is not unjust for women," the cleric is quoted as saying.

"If it is said that a woman below 15 cannot be married, that is wrong. If a girl exceeds 10 or 12 then she is eligible for marriage, and whoever thinks she is too young, then he or she is wrong and has done her an injustice."

His comment came in the wake of several well-publicized cases of young girls being married to men sometimes old enough to be their great-grandfathers.

On Monday a court in Taif allowed an 11-year-old girl to separate from her 75-year-old husband after the girl's mother petitioned the court, according to a report in Okaz newspaper. The girl's father had arranged the marriage in exchange for a dowry, it said.

In December a Saudi court at Unayzah, 220 kilometres (135 miles) north of Riyadh, rejected a plea to divorce an eight-year-old girl married off by her father to a man who is 58, saying the case should wait until the girl reaches puberty. [....]

Maldivian Islamic Scholars have argued for this before. In 2006 the revered Islamic Scholar "B A" Naseem trained in Saudi Arabia wrote and published a letter in Minivan Daily



ކޮންމެއަކަސް އަށާރައަހަރު ފުރުނީމާނޫނީ ކައިވެނި ނުކުރެވޭ ޤާނޫނެއް ދީނާޚިލާފަށް ފާސްކުރުމުން

BA Naseem has a large following in our country. In the run-up to the Presidential elections, Adam “BA” Naseem in his capacity as MDP Religious Council President called for a second consideration after Anni announced Shadow Health Minister Dr Aminath Jaleel as his nominated running mate to the national council on 11th August 2007. Health Minister Dr Aminath Jaleel was dropped as Vice Presidential candidate to be replaced by the current and male Vice President Mohamed Waheed Hassan Manik.

What do these people want for our children? mufa'khathat?

    In the Qur'an, we find that Muslims are encouraged not to ask hard questions about their own religion, and the reason is because they might lose their faith in Islam if they do,


    "O ye who believe! Ask not questions about things which if made plain to you, may cause you trouble. Some people before you did ask such questions, and on that account lost their faith." (Surah 5:102-103)

    This discouragement to open questioning is also seen in the ahadith, one of which records that Mohammed was asked about some matters which he did not want to have to answer, and got so angry when the questioner persisted that he grew enraged, red in the face29. Other statements in the ahadith also record Mohammed's adverse reaction to being challenged on the things he taught30. Maududi, one of the most prominent theologians of Islam in the modern age, likewise encourages Muslims to leave off asking the difficult to answer questions about their faith31. The tendency against open questioning and willingness to examine the beliefs of Islam suggests to us that Islam is not really interested in people investigating Islam for the truth's sake (despite what many a Muslim making dawah might say). Rather, it tells us that Islam seeks to suppress its internal inconsistencies and embarrassing teachings, things which might cause the Muslim to doubt his faith and even apostasise if he were to dwell on them.

  3. Saudi Arabia is one sick country. The grand mufti is one sick Mullah. BA Naseem is another mentally twisted Maldivian. It is sickening that people like Anni should actually listen to him.

    BA Naseem is a revered Islamic Scholar who is only bringing the true teachings of Islam to Maldivians.

  6. "BA Naseem is a revered Islamic Scholar who is only bringing the true teachings of Islam". That serves as a good summary of what a sick cult Islam is- concocted by a perverted pedophile called Mohamed.

    By the way until recently I only thought of B.A. Naseem as a standup comedian who named his vadhu-dhoani "chewing gum". Thanks for letting me know that he is experimenting with Mufa'khathat now.

  7. this is sick. but i just want you to know this story. somedays back i was at friends place where they have tvm. and the guy was laughing to death.he asked me whether it was a pakistani guy preaching in islaamee marukazu. i said he speaks dhivehi well,but ive never seen him.

    but then i saw the name..it was nasrulla. commonly known as sheikh nasru (with a masters from saudiarabia).he was a major figure in the sectarian difference in haabee circles few years back. anyway.. here is the important thing.... back then i heard from a very authentic source that this guy tried to marry off his child to another maldivians studying in saudi. the child was under 13 ofcourse. but the court did not proceed with the marriage after the child and mother cried. so if this is the nasru, someone need to look in to this. guys at male'; check with haabee sources.this is very important.

    oh. and here is something funny for ya:

  10. Genocide, huh?. If its war they want, war they will have.

    They will not defile the future Mothers of the State - not on my watch. They've destroyed enough childhoods; its time to deliver vengeance.

    So you did not find a younger girls photo with burqa to put up with your misinformation. Or may be its your fantasy in your pedophile head to have sex with 3 year olds so when some one mention 10, 11 years this is what you see in your sick mind. According to your post seikh al-allamah Abdul azeez al-seikh is not saying its an injustice not to marry 10 year olds....but he is saying its an insult to them an injustice towards them to say they are too young immature and cant take responsibilities of marriage. again copy pasting from jews without a secound thought. and news from the hindus who would worship anything even a piece of shit.
    Allah most high has ordained that when some one reaches puberty they are responsible for their deeds. He/She earns sin or rewards for good deeds. Marriage is protection from evils but for you immature under 18 and may be under 30 year old kids who live off their parents I have to remind you again that marriage is not equal to sex.
    You can have your kids moms sister parade naked all over the place our kids our sisters will be married covering themselves and have modesty unlike yours with open legs.
    When some one matures they need to fulfil their sexual desires your kids and sister can run off fucking every guy on the street but not ours ours kids will be married living a dignified life.
    So get over this pedophile dreams you have of 3 year olds get married and discover that marriage is not all about sex.

    @abdulla. Thanks for the explanation. But these "pedophile dreams" are more apparent in arab and muslim culture than any where else I suppose.

    And yeah... I wonder why they didn't come up with adoption rather than marriage. Could have been a better alternative to marrying them and the potential for perverts to fulfil their sexual desires with kids. Why do we have to think of these possiblities and not God.

  13. I have interrogated some of your beardie friends, abdullah. And they DO believe that PUBERTY is the fuckin' startline for marriage.

    They say it's to "avoid sins".

    Avoid sins my 120-inch whale cock. >.>

  14. Oh and guess what the pedomuslims say marriage is for?. "To have kids at the earliest possible opportunity."

    Your argument is now invalid.
