Saudi Marriage Officiant : ‘It Is Allowed To Marry A Girl At The Age Of One’.

Insanity:

You can have a marriage contract even with a one-year-old girl, not to mention a girl of nine, seven, or eight. This is merely a contract [indicating] consent.

My irony meter just exploded. The justification for this?

The Prophet Muhammad is the model we follow. He took ‘Aisha to be his wife when she was six, but he had sex with her only when she was nine.

Ugh.
