Claim: The day when Prophet Mohammed consummated with his minor wife, Ayesha, is celebrated as Eid.
Fact-check: The celebration of Eid al-Fitr is falsely linked to consummation of Prophet Muhammad with his minor wife, Aisha - FACTLY
Verdict: eid al-fitr marks the culmination of the fasting month of ramzan. ramzan is the holiest month in the islamic calendar, observed by muslims all around the world. it is generally said that prophet muhammad received the first vision of the holy quran during the month of ramzan. we could not find any credible evidence linking aisha's consummation with prophet muhammad to celebration of eid. aisha was the third wife of prophet muhammad and the daughter of abu bakr. it has been reported that aisha was married to prophet at the age of six and consummated her marriage when she was nine years old. however, many scholars have disputed this. hence, the claim made in the post is misleading.
