Lies about Muhammad (pbuh)

I notice that the sources you mentioned are all anti-Islamic websites. All anti-Islamic sites don't write sources, take things out of context, lie regardlessly and much more to show that they're right - but well, if they lie, they're not right obv. FIRST ISSUE: Muhammad (PBUH) didn't molest A'ishah at all, and didn't touch her when she was six. Firstly, most scholars agree that she was 18 y.o., while some others say she was 15 or 16. Sources: http://www.muslim.org... Secondly, A'ishah: - was a great teacher in religion - is the fourth most influential transmitter of ahadith - has also been a politician - is described as Muhammad's most beloved wife, maybe only after his first wife Khadija - is described by many as a brilliant, intelligent, eloquent woman, the best in speech Also, she was known as the Mother of the Believers when she was alive, and she still is nowadays, because of many reasons - for example, because of her practicing of the religion. Not to mention the fact that she also learned how to fight and took part in a battle. You can see it's not for chance if two thirds (two thirds!) of shariah were created, adjusted, and fixed by her!; and this isn't reported only in ahadith, islamic books etc., but is also said by non-muslims. Now, I think you agree that children who are sexually abused always become mentally unstable and unbalanced adults, unless they attend sessions with psychologists and such - who didn't exist at that age, and it doesn't solve the children's problem 100% anyways. Now tell me, how could a raped child become such an influential figure and a brilliant woman in many fields of religion and life? SECOND ISSUE: Sorry, but who's this mentally challenged woman he (pbuh) raped that you're talking about? THIRD ISSUE: Though you don't give much details about it, I already knew the story about him (pbuh) having sex with his aunt - and please, let me say that it is a really old story who was distorted and simply originated from a lie. FOURTH ISSUE: All the ahadiths you refer to about him (pbuh) "sexually assaulting his wives" are either weak or are reported by al-Bukhari, who is very well known to those who seriously study Islam even just superficially for transmitting many many false, weak, and contradictory (self- or with each other) ahadith. Though some of his ahadith are indeed true, some others even go against the Qur'an, so it's easy to know which ones you have to discard. FIFTH ISSUE: who are these 61 women you're talking about? SIXTH ISSUE: Here's the answer: you can find it on this online guide for muslim parents. Oh, what a horrible website!, it must order parents to beat their children till they bleed, huh? http://www.irfi.org... The fact about beating children is reported only and only by Abu Dawud, who we know has collected a mix of authentic ahadith, good ahadith and weak and unreliable ones. Not only the Qur'an prohibits beating "as if they were slaves": also the Prophet (PBUH) stated in another hadith that the beating is very discouraged but, IF it ever becomes really NECESSARY, it should be done so that it does no harm, and absolutely not in the face in any case - not even for animals'. SEVENTH ISSUE: Please, can you bring me the ahadith you're referring to? This is a bit too general. EIGHTH ISSUE: 'A'ishah reported: the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) never beat a thing with his hand except the time when he was in battle. He (Pbuh) never beat a servant or a woman. [Muslim (4/79/1814), Ibn Majah (1/1984), Ahmad (6/32/229,232), al-Darimi (2/2218)] There are also other ahadith where Muhammad (Pbuh) condemns violence, rape, and such. Even during battle, he (pbuh) said to avoid the face. --- 4:34 actually says, "Men are in charge of women by [right of] what Allah has given one over the other and what they spend [for maintenance] from their wealth. So righteous women are devoutly obedient, guarding in [the husband's] absence what Allah would have them guard. But those [wives] from whom you fear arrogance - [first] advise them; [then if they persist], forsake them in bed; and [finally], strike them. But if they obey you [once more], seek no means against them. Indeed, Allah is ever Exalted and Grand." "Men are guardians over women because Allah has made some of them excel others, and because they (men) spend of their wealth. So virtuous women are those who are obedient, and guard the secrets of their husbands with Allah"s protection. And as for those on whose part you fear disobedience, admonish them and leave them alone in their beds, and chastise them. Then if they obey you, seek not a way against them. Surely, Allah is High, Great." The verse following the above gives further weight to the above interpretation of meanings: And if you fear a breach between them two (meaning the man and the wife), appoint an arbiter from his folk and an arbiter from her folk. If they desire amendment Allah will make them of one mind. Verily, Allah is ever Knowing, Aware. Please also read these for a full and more detailed response: http://www.islamtomorrow.com... http://www.cie.ugent.be... As already said, the "beating" should be done so that it causes no harm or injures. Referring to the links above, especially the last one, we can understand that it should only be done in extreme cases. There's not much more to say about this, if not that we should notice that the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) always used to say: "How can you hug the woman with a hand you had hit her with?". Al-Kafi also reported that he (Pbuh) said: "What! Does one of you hit his wife, and then attempt to embrace her?". Finally, Muhammad (pbuh) in his last sermon said that "beating should be resorted to only if the wife has become guilty, in an obvious manner, of immoral conduct. "So, as I said, only in extreme cases. Qur'an 2:282 doesn't state that. Please check your sources. The response for 4:11 and 2:282 is the same. It's really long and I think it would take 5.000 characs, so I don't have enough, but here's some websites who can answer. Just please keep in mind that sharia, obviously, deals with common and usual scenarios which regard all times. Rare situations can't possibly become rules, because one simply needs to choose what to do depending on the situation of course! But Allah knows more. http://www.answering-christianity.com... http://www.answering-christianity.com... Shaykh Zakir Naik also says that "jurists agree that even one witness of a woman is sufficient for the sighting of the crescent of the moon. Imagine one woman witness being sufficient for one of the pillars of Islam, i.e. fasting and the whole Muslim community of men and women agree and accept her witness! Some jurists say that one witness is required at the beginning of Ramadhan and two witnesses at the end of Ramadhan. It makes no difference whether the witnesses are men or women. Some incidents require only female witness and that of a male cannot be accepted. For instance, in dealing with the problems of women, while giving the burial bath i.e. "ghusl" to a woman, the witness has to be a woman. The seeming inequality of male and female witnesses in financial transactions is not due to any inequality of the sexes in Islam. It is only due to the different natures and roles of men and women in society as envisaged by Islam." About the unknown verse, I'm sorry, but it isn't in the Qur'an. As I already said, Al-Bukhari says many wrong things which go against the Qur'an, and the last hadith you mentioned is from Bukhari. I'm sorry, but very very few ahadith from al-Bukhari are reliable, and you can easily understand this one is not just by looking at the opinion of many muslims nowadays, Quran and ahadith and other simple little facts. http://nikah.com... Islam recognizes that sexual desire does indeed exist and can be very strong, from one part or another of the couple (even if, usually, males have an hard time trying to "repress" it), but what it focuses on is the love, tenderness, and strong relationship that there must be between a wife and a husband to build a firm marriage. Once again, sorry for my bad english. Keep in mind I'm not even english, so. If there's something I left unexplained, please tell me.
