Welcome to Gaia! ::

Assalamualaikum.

Let see... Is there any topic about the history of Muhammad?

Most important, (For now) I would like to know how he married the 9 years old girl. (Errr... Forgot her name, Aishah?) ._."

Give me details please, if possible, give me links to where you copy the information. I don't want simple answers.

Thank you.

For the 2nd last line, I have the answer.

First, the question is why people nowadays can only marry at 18? There's no verse in the Quran that forbids you from marrying under the age of 18. But then it's a "human" law.

There are some people who married at young age. Maybe you could ask your parents, or grandparents or your great grandparents.

Look at the people in this era, they are not even capable to take care of themselves like people from centuries ago could. Because in the past, they can be much much more mature than us.

I took this word from the lecture class I've been before, but I can't remember everything he said. But basically it's just like what I said above.

Oh and another thing he said is, in Islam there's only children and adult. Once a person meets him/her puberty, they are already adults. And Muhammad only slept with Aisha when she was 9, that's when she meet puberty, I believe.

But sleep is not having sex. People always misunderstand that. -_- And start calling Muhammad a p-e-d-o-p-h-i-l-e. That's why people just want to say Islam is evil and a religion of devil.

So I just want a proper answer how to reply to these people. I just got a reply from a youtube.com user saying our prophet a p-e-d-o-p-h-i-l-e, and other insults.

I never point out as I never heard people never insult Islam. So I know. The thing is, we as the Muslim should explain to them clearly. Please don't sound as if you are calm all the time, as if insulting Islam is okay. -_-"

I ask about the age 18 thing not because I don't know, but just to point out points about it. Like FAQ.

And marrying at the age of 18 is a human rules, have nothing to do with religion. Why do we have to put a limit for marriages, because what happened in Muhammad's time just don't fit in with the people now. People could not even be as mature as those times, so we ourselves put those limits. (And so we are pampered by our parents with what the world has now)

So here, we are not talking about modern people nor people from centuries ago. This is something that they don't understand. They compared about who we are as a human with different beliefs. But they don't think about the time changes, and how the world works.

I don't care if they have thousands of girlfriends or having any scandals with someone else while in a marriage. If they do, then they are stupid. In Islam it is zina, and in Christian, they pledge to love only one and the another forever, but they broke this pledge a lot. So who's fault is it? Oh well, that's not the matter now.

The subject is changed a lot. -.-"



And I got no real answers from the main question. If there's no story of Muhammad in this guild, then that's a no. And if you could not search it the internet, please don't tell what you "think." When asking for history, it is a fact, not an opinion. I don't mind reading pages of Muhammad's life. But I need a simple, but detailed.

I need a story, plot, detailed, compressed, simplified, source and tell.

LOlz, i guess if u wanna know Muhammad's (saw) life more or less, then whatch The Message

you're right , I will try to make a topic about his history because it's so important .

Muhammad pbuh was born in Makkah in the year 570 Since his father died before his birth and his mother died shortly thereafter, he was raised by his uncle who was from the respected tribe of Quraysh. He was raised illiterate,. unable to read or write, and remained so till his death. His people, before his mission as a prophet, were ignorant of science and most of them were illiterate. As he grew up, he became known to be truthful, honest, trustworthy, generous, and sincere. He was so trustworthy that they called him the Trustworthy. Muhammad pbuh was very religious, and he had long detested the decadence and idolatry of his society. At the age of forty, Muhammad pbuh received his first revelation from God through the Angel Gabriel. The revelations continued for twenty-three years, and they are collectively known as the Quran. As soon as he began to recite the Quran and to preach the truth which God had revealed to him, he and his small group of followers suffered persecution from unbelievers. The persecution grew so fierce that in the year 622 God gave them the command to emigrate. This emigration from Makkah to the city of Madinah, some 260 miles to the north, marks the beginning of the Muslim calendar. After several years, Muhammad pbuh and his followers were able to return to Makkah, where they forgave their enemies. Before Muhammad pbuh died, at the age of sixty-three, the greater part of the Arabian Peninsula had become Muslim, and within a century of his death, Islam had spread to Spain in the West and as far East as China. Among the reasons for the rapid and peaceful spread of Islam was the truth and clarity of its doctrine. Islam calls for faith in only one God, Who is the only one worthy of worship. The Prophet Muhammad pbuh was a perfect example of an honest, just, merciful, compassionate, truthful, and brave human being. Though he was a man, he was far removed from all evil characteristics and strove solely for the sake of God and His reward in the Hereafter. Moreover, in all his actions and dealings, he was ever mindful and fearful of God...

@ starter of this thread, you said you would only believe in the words which have a proper sourcer/webpage, then when you begin to mix with other replies you forget your own said thing, come on! those ppl on youtube won't believe what ever you say, and what ever they said do not have any proof of what they said! all you can do is pray that may Allah show them the right path!
