Discussions around Islam and Prepubescent sex and marriage?

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.

 

 

Does Islam and Christianity allow prepubescent marriage?

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?

The physical harm of child 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

Not surprisingly young child brides will suffer pyschological harm due to been married at an age that they are too young to cope with which leads to bad depression and even suicide.

Is conscience relevant to whether marriage to a prepubescent is morale?

Does the fact that most of the general population finds it an offence that a 53 year old Muhammad married a child of 6 (Aisha) and then consummated the marriage when he was around 56 and Aisha was 9 - this according to many sources in Islam – find it abhorrent tell us anything?

What does Jesus think of children?

From the verses in Mark 10 we see how the Lord Jesus sees children. What we have is people – probably their loving parents - bringing children to Jesus so that he can bless them. We find that the disciples try to stop this, probably thinking to themselves that Jesus is far too busy to bother with something as insignificant as children.......Read more.

A case study: Child marriage at the age of thirteen

This article appeared in The Guardian newspaper in September 2025.

 

Case study of child marriage at thirteen years of age. I have presented it here not because I hold to the opinions of The Guardian, but because within it, we see the phycological harm that can be done to females that are married off at a young age – especially when the marriage is by force.

I can not leave it like this!

 

The purpose of this website is not about exposing the lies and deceit of your particular belief and then leave with no hope and nothing to believe in and no purpose in your life. While it may be a good thing to realise it if you have been lied to too or deceived, this does not mean there is no truth out there.

There is truth and something that you can believe in and commit to and it will change your life – not just for now but for all eternity. Now I am not saying all your problems and troubles will disappear while you are alive in this present world but what you can have is a peace that is greater than your worldly problems. I want to be clear on this – for some people, becoming a Christian could make your life a lot harder. But despite all this, you can have a purpose in your life despite what circumstances you find yourself in. You can have a real fellowship with the living God and actually have God himself dwelling inside you by His Holy Spirit. No one ever regrets becoming a Christian. In the end we will spend eternity with Jesus in paradise. As Paul said “For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” (2 Corinthians 4:17). If you read the book of Acts and see what Paul went through, it is remarkable that he would describe them as “light and momentary troubles.”

The good news is that free and available to all of mankind. You don’t have to be clever or rich or gifted or be from a certain family or country. Anyone can receive it.

The Bible tells you all you have to do is “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved.” That is taken from Acts 16:31. One of the most famous verses from the Bible has the same message, “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16).

There are actually a lot of Bible verses that have the same message about salvation being free and simple but I will quote just one more on this which is Ephesians 2:8-9 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.

It is a very important principle to grasp that we can bring nothing to our salvation. It is a gift from God by His grace and we can not add any of our own works to it.

 

 

 

So what to do now?

Of course you can simply just commit your life to Jesus by asking him to forgive all your sins, and asking Him into your life as your Lord. Making Him your Lord will mean that you allow Him to be the Lord of all your life, which means you seek his will in all you do. On occassions you will fail to obey him, but "If we confess our sins,he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness (1John1:9)." If you feel you are not ready to take that step but would like to know more, I would recommend getting hold or download the Bible and start reading it. I would suggest starting in the New Testament but all of the Bible is good for you. It would also be helpful for you to find a good church and go along and ask all those questions that you would love to get answers to.
