Um… come again?

Yeah. I think I just heard you say that you said it was okay for children as young as 1 to be married? Oh really…. that’s what I thought…
Call it marriage, Islamic style.
Saudi marriage officiant Dr. Ahmad al-Mu’bi told Lebanese television viewers last week that it’s permissible for girls as young as 1 to marry — as long as sex is postponed.
Al-Mu’bi’s remarkable comments also included an explanation that “there is no minimal age for entering marriage.”
“You can have a marriage contract even with a 1-year-old girl, not to mention a girl of 9, 7 or 8,” he said. “But is the girl ready for sex or not?” What is the appropriate age for sex for the first time? This varies according to environment and tradition,” al-Mu’bi said.
Boy, he almost sounds… like a liberal… no absolute morality.. whats good for you might not be good for me…. moral relativism at its finest….
Speechless…

ONE YR OLDS?? Oh my. I am shocked yet not at the same time. After all this is Islam…child pedophilia is allowed, sanctioned, encouraged. Disgusting vile creatures these Muslims are. The cancer of the world and we need to find a cure, and fast.
