Most Muslims answer that such marriages were accepted in society at that time. if
not, people will object to the Holy Prophet's marriage with
Aisyah.Bagaimanapun, explanations like this will be easy for people to
deceive the naive in believing it. But, I am not quite satisfied with such explanations. Some
of the hadith (traditions of the Prophet) that tells about the age of
Aisha at the time of her marriage with the Prophet, hadith, hadith is
very problematic. I
will present some evidence against the delusion that told Hisham ibn
`Urwa and to clear the name of the Prophet as an irresponsible parent
who is marrying a plain girl was 7 years old. Here are 7 Evidence of the Prophet SAW Not Marry Aisha At age 9 years, namely:
1. Testing Against Sources Which Stating Prophet Marries Girl Age 9 Years
Most of the history that tells it who are all printed in the hadith narrated only by Hisham ibn `Urwa, who recorded on the authority of his father, which should be at least 2 or 3 people have noted similar hadiths. It is strange that nobody who bhw in Medina, where Hisham ibn `Urwa stayed, until the age of 71 years just told me this, besides the fact that there are many students at Medina including Malik ibn Anas famous reply, ill tell you this. The origin of this history is from the people of Iraq, where Hisham is living there & moved from Medina to Iraq pd old age.Tehzibu'l-Tehzib, one who is quite famous book that contains the records of the narrators of hadith, according to Yaqub ibn Shaibah noted: "Hisham sngt be believed, history is acceptable, except what-what did she tell after moving into Iraq" (Tehzi ' bu'l-tehzi'b, Ibn Hajar Al-`asqala'ni, Dar Ihya al-turath al-Islami, 15th century. Vol 11, p.50). In a further statement bhw lbh Malik ibn Anas Hisham reject words recorded history of the people of Iraq: "I've been told bhw Hisham Malik refuses words recorded history of the people of Iraq" (Tehzi'b u'l-tehzi'b, IbnHajar Al-`asqala'ni, Dar Ihya al-al-Islami turath, vol.11, p. 50). Mizanu'l-ai `tidal, another book that contains descriptions of life history transmitters of hadith pd Prophet recorded:" When the old, Hisham's memory suffered a setback reply striking "(Mizanu'l-ai` tidal, Al-Zahbi, Al-Maktabatu 'l-athriyyah, Sheikhupura, Pakistan, Vol. 4, p. 301).Conclusion:Based on these references, Hisham's memory is very bad & her history after moving to Iraq is not in believing, so that his history of the age of Aisha's marriage is not credible.Chronology:Important dates in Islamic historyPre-610 M: Ignorance (pre-Islamic era) before the revelation 610 M: drop the first revelation of Abu Bakr accepted Islam 613 AD: The Prophet Muhammad started teaching to the Society 615 M: Hijrah to Abyssinia. 616 M: Umar ibn al Khattab accepts Islam. 620 M: The Prophet said to Aisha woo 622 M: Migration to Yathrib, later renamed Medina 623/624 M: The Prophet said to be married with Aisha
2. Siti Aishah woo
According to Tabari (also according to Hisham ibn `Urwa Ibn Hunbal and Ibn Sad), Ayesha groom at the age of 7 years & began to settle down at the age of 9 years. But, on the other hand, Al-Tabari said: "All the children of Abu Bakr (4 people) were born during jahiliyahh from 2 wives" (Tarikhu'l-umam wa'l-mamlu'k, Al-Tabari (Died 922), Vol. 4, p. 50, Arabic, Dara'l-fikr, Beirut, 1979). If the groom 620M Ayesha (Ayesha age 7 years) & menage year 623/624 AD (age 9 years), this indicates that Ayesha was born AD 613 pd So based on the writings of Al-Tabari, Aisha should have been born pd 613M, ie 3 years after the period ended Jahiliyahh (610 M). Tabari also states that Ayesha was born at the time of Ignorance. if Ayesha was born in the era of Ignorance, Aisha should have at least 14 years old when the marriage. But his core Tabari has contradiction in its tranmission.Conclusion: Al-Tabari not reliable on the age of Aisha when she was married.
3. Age Aisha If Linked With Age Fatimah
According to Ibn Hajar, "Fatima was born when the Ka` bah was rebuilt, when the Prophet was 35 years old ... Fatimah 5 years older than Ayesha "(Al-isabah fi-sahabah tamyizi'l, Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani, Vol. 4, p. 377, Maktabatu'l-Riyadh al-Haditha, al-Riyadh, 1978). If Ibn Hajar is a factual statement, it means that Ayesha was born when the Prophet was 40 years old. if the Prophet married Aisha at the age of 52 years of the Prophet, then the age of Aisha when she married is 12 years old.CONCLUSION: Ibn Hajar, Tabari, Ibn Hisham, Ibn & Humbal contradiction with each other. But it was evident that the history of the age of 7 years married Ayesha is a myth without foundation.
4. Aisha's Age Calculated From Age Asthma
According to Rahman ibn-abi Abda'l zanna'd: "Asma 10 years older than Ayesha (Siyar A` la'ma'l-nubala ', Al-Zahabi, Vol. 2, p. 289, Arabic, Mu'assasatu 'l-treatise, Beirut, 1992).According to Ibn Kathir: "Asma 10 years older than her sister [Ayesha]" (Al-Bidayah wa'l-Nihayah, Ibn Kathir, Vol. 8, p. 371, Dar al-`Arabi al-fikr, Al-jizah, 1933). According to Ibn Kathir: "Asma saw the murder of his son in the year 73 AH, & Asma died five days later. According to the history of others, he died 10 or 20 days later, or a few days more than 20 days, or 100 days later. History of the most strong is 100 days later. at the time of Asthma Death, he was aged 100 years "(Al-Bidayah wa'l-Nihayah, Ibn Kathir, Vol. 8, p. 372, Dar al-` Arabi al-fikr, Al-jizah, 1933).According to Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani: "Asthma & live to be 100 years old died at 73 or 74 H." (Taqribu'l-tehzib, Ibn Hajar Al-Asqalani, p. 654, Arabic, Chapter fi'l-Nisa ', al-harfu'l-alif, Lucknow).According to most of the historians, Asma, eldest brother of Aisha disputing the age of 10 years. if Asma died aged 100 years pd him 73 years H, asthma should be aged 27 or 28 years old when he migrated 622M). (100-73 = 27)If Asma was 27 or 28 years when the hijra (when Aisha married), Ayesha should be aged 17 or 18 years. Thus, Ayesha, aged 17 or 18 years when it moved in the year in which Aisha married. Based on Hajar, Ibn outrigger, and Abda'l-Rahman ibn abi zanna'd, Aisha's age when she married the Prophet was 19 or 20 years. In Exhibit # 3, Ibn Hajar estimate the age of 12 years & Aisha in Exhibit # 4 Ibn Hajar himself contradicts his own with his statement Aisha age 17 or 18 years. So where the correct age? 12 or 18?CONCLUSION: Ibn Hajar is not valid in the age of Aisha transmission.
5. Battle of Badr and Uhud
A history regarding Ayesha's participation in the war of Badr out in the Muslim hadith, (Kitabu'l-jihad wa'l-siyar, Chapter karahiyati'l-Isti `anah fi'l-ghazwi bikafir). Aisha, as she told one important moment in transit during the battle of Badr, said: "when we reach Shajarah". From this statement seems obvious, Aisha is a member of the journey to Badr. A history of participation in Uhud Aisha recorded in Bukhari (Kitabu'l-jihad wa'l-siyar, Chapter Ghazwi'l-nisa 'wa `qitalihinnama a'lrijal):" Anas noted that on the day of Uhud, people could not stood by the Prophet. [on that day,] I saw Ayesha & Umm-i-Sulaim from afar, they roll up his few clothes [to prevent the obstruction of movement within the trip]. "Again, this shows that Aisha joined be in a battle of Uhud & Badar.Di riwayatkan by Bukhari (Kitabu'l-Maghazi, Chapter Ghazwati'l-Trench wa-ahza'b hiya'l): "Ibn` Umar states that Messenger does not allow himself berpastisispasi in Uhud, at the time, Ibn Umar was 14 years old. But when the war Trench, when he was 15 years old, the Prophet allowed Ibn 'Umar took part in the war. " Based on the history of the above, (a) children under the age of 15 years will be sent home & not allowed to participate in war, & (b) Ayesha participated in the Battle of Badr & UhudConclusion: Ayesha participated in the battle of Badr & Uhud clearly indicates that he was ill when it was 9 years old, but at least 15 years old. In addition, the women who accompany the men in the war should serve to help, not to add burden to them. This is another evidence of the contradictions of the age of Aisha's marriage.
6. Surat al-Qamar (Moon)
According to some narratives, Ayesha was born in the eighth before the Hegira. But according to other sources in Bukhari, Aisha was recorded saying this: I am a young girl (jariyah in Arabic) when Surah Al-Qamar revealed (Sahih Bukhari, Kitabu'l-Tafseer, Chapter Qaulihi Bal `atu al-sa` Maw iduhum wa'l-sa `atu adha 'wa amarr).Letter 54 of the Quran to be revealed in the eighth before the AH (The Bounteous Koran, MM Khatib, 1985), indicates that the letter is written down in the year 614 AD If Ayesha started household with Prophet at the age of 9 in the year 623 AD or 624 AD, Aisha still newborns (sibyah in Arabic) at the time Surah Al-Qamar was revealed. Based on the story above, it actually appears that Aisha was a young girl, not a newborn when the revelation of Al-Qamar. Jariyah means young girl who still loves to play (Lane's Arabic Lexicon Classic). Thus, Ayesha, has become jariyah not sibyah (baby), so it has been aged 6-13 years old at the time of descent surah Al-Qamar, and therefore it is definitely dinikah aged 14-21 years old when the Prophet.Conclusion: This narration is also a history of marriage mengkontra 9-year-old Aisha.
7. Arabic terminology
According to the history of Ahmad ibn Hanbal, after the death of the Prophet's first wife, Khadija, Khaulah came to the Prophet and the Prophet advised to remarry, the Prophet asked him about the choices they have in mind Khaulah. Khaulah said: "You can marry a girl (bikr) or a woman who never married (thayyib)". When the Prophet inquired about the identity of the girl (bikr), Khaulah mentioned Ayesha's name. For people who understand Arabic will soon see that bikr word in Arabic is not used for a young girl aged 9 years.Right word for a young girl who still likes to play is, as stated upfront, is jariyah. Bikr other hand, is used for a woman who is not married and do not have experience with wedding engagement, as we understand it in English "virgin". Therefore, it seems clear that a young girl of 9 years is not a "woman" (bikr) (Musnad Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Vol. 6, p. .210, Arabic, Dar Ihya al-Arabi al-`turath, Beirut). Conclusion: The literal meaning of the word, bikr (girl), in the above hadith is "adult woman who has not had a sexual experience in marriage." Therefore, Ayesha was an adult woman at the time of her marriage.
