Age Of Aisha R.a.
There are multiple accounts of her direct age being 6 at the time of marriage and 9 at the time of consummation. There was almost no doubt on this part of “history” among Muslim scholars for centuries. I would be interested to know when exactly the doubts about her age started being raised among Muslim scholars and community. If these questions started ONLY when this became morally objectionable in the modern society, then it raises doubts on the honesty of these questions. We can’t reject a part of history/hadith because it is uncomfortable to digest. However, if these hadiths were doubted by Muslim scholars even in 1000AD, then it is an academic question.
Then how come Ghamidi sb argument holds weight since Hazrat Sawda RA was already doing the three tasks which are necessary component of the marriage as outlined by Ghamidi sb
