I have to confess I found this a very disturbing section to write. I was aware on Islam's position on this subject but as I researched the subject I found the details hard reading. This was especially true of the Islamic hand book "The Reliance of the Traveller" which I mention in the first part but also of the harm that is done to young children around the world by prepubescent sex which is the consequence of child marriage. So be warned if you love children in the proper sense then this may be disturbing for you as well.
In this section we look at what Islam and Christianity has to say on this subject. Does Islam really allow infant marriage and prepubscent sex? What does the Bible have to say? Does the Quran or the Bible give an age of consent for marriage?
Does child marriage endanger the life of the mother and the baby. The evidence that it does is over whelming and there is a lot on it. Check out this article for for more disturbing information.
The psychological harm of child marriage
Is conscience relevant to whether marriage to a prepubescent is morale?
What does Jesus think of children?
