The Pedophile Muhammad

Raymond Ibrahim:

Muslim "child-marriage" — euphemism for pedophilia — is making headlines again, at least in Arabic media: Dr. Salih bin Fawzan, a prominent cleric and member of Saudi Arabia's highest religious council, just issued a fatwa asserting that there is no minimum age for marriage, and that girls can be married "even if they are in the cradle."

At least he's a consistent Muslim. He knows that by setting a reasonable minimum limit he'll indirectly condemn the evil man at the heart of Islam.

Fawzan insists that nowhere does Sharia set an age limit for marrying girls: like countless Muslim scholars before him, he relies on Koran 65:4, which discusses marriage to females who have not yet begun menstruating (i.e., are prepubescent) and the fact that Muhammad, Islam's role model, married Aisha when she was 6-years-old, "consummating" the marriage — or, in modern parlance, raping her — when she was 9.

And yet there are more than one billion people who "think" that Muhammad was a perfect man. To criticize him is to invite death.

Isaac Schrödinger,

Mohammad was a monster, and the more people who realize that, the better.

Hysterical... this guy is an EXPERT!

"Fawzan was a student of Imam Muhammad ibn Saud Islamic University in Riyadh, initially studying at the faculty of Sharia and graduating in 1960; he later on earned his master's and doctorate from the same university, focusing on Fiqh.After the completion of his doctorate, he was a teacher at the faculty of Sharia at his alma mater before being transferred into the department of the fundamentals of religion, or Department for Higher Studies within the Faculty of the Principles of the Religion (usool ad-deen). He was later the head of Saudi Arabia's Supreme Court of Justice."

One of the truly amazing things is that when these outrageous, OBJECTIVELY HORRENDOUS things comes around, it's never some Terry Jones .. It's Tantawi, Qaradawi, Bin Baz, and now a new name for the compendium of officially approved horror and stupidity

"head of Saudi Arabia's Supreme Court of Justice."

A number 1.
Top of the heap.

Mind blowing

A real Earl Warren, Robert Jackson, William O Douglas, Louis Brandeis or Oliver Holmes

unfathomable
